Synopsis

Understand and deal with kidney disease and its related problems.

While the news that you or someone you love has kidney disease can be shocking, for over 37 million Americans it is a reality. After the initial diagnosis, patients and families usually have a myriad of questions about treatment options. The new edition of What You Must Know about Kidney Disease is designed not only to answer all your questions but also to provide the up-to-date information you need to evaluate and choose both conventional treatments and complementary therapies.

The book is divided into three parts. Part One provides an overview of the kidneys’ structure and function and discusses common kidney disorders. It also guides you in asking your doctor questions that will help you better understand the status of your health and your prognosis. Part Two examines kidney problems and their conventional treatments. Part Three presents an in-depth look at the most effective complementary treatments available, from simple lifestyle changes to nutritional and herbal supplementation, meditation, and more.

There is so much you can do to improve both your kidney health and your overall well-being. What You Must Know about Kidney Disease provides you with the knowledge you need to be a wise participant in your own health care.
