Chronic renal diseases can be completely cured

An Ayurvedic medicinal research has found out that chronic renal diseases could be completely cured through indigenous medicines rather than western medicine.

Indigenous Medicine Minister Piyasena Gamage, Deputy Minister Pandu Bandaranaike together with North Central Chief Minister Berty Premalal Disanayake have initiated a program to treat kidney patients through ayurvedic medication. A Health Ministry spokesman told the Daily News that the Ministry distributed a questionnaire with 50 questions among kidney patients and found the major causes for the decease.

The high concentration of fluoride in water had caused the spread of the disease according to the findings, he said. Health Ministry officials having collected waters from drinking wells made a thorough investigation and found there was high fluoride concentration in the water.

"We warned the people about some wells they used for drinking water from and requested them not to use water from them," he said. Indigenous drugs were administered to patients at the renal clinics conducted in the North Central Province. Those who responded positively to indigenous medication were selected for the full treatment course.

The program was implemented at the Anuradhapura Teaching Hospital as many of the kidney patients are from the North Central Province.

Each week at least 20 new patients with chronic renal diseases join the queue at the renal clinics, he said.
