HOW CAN AYURVEDA HELP PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM RENAL STONES?
Ayurvedic system of medicine is an ancient Indian system of medicine that uses the inherent power of herbs to help diseases in a natural and healthy way. We in Ayurveda believe that the body is controlled by three different energies which are Vada, Pitta, and Kappha. These energies maintain the balance in our bodies and any imbalance in these energies may disorient the body system.
The Ayurvedic herbs for renal stones help dissolve the calculi in a natural and herbal way. The Kidney functioning is restored and the pain and anguish caused by these is helped. The herbs breakdown the calculi in the renal matter itself and they pass out through the urine. The Ayurvedic herbs help prevent the surgical intervention for renal stones.
