How effective are herbal supplements in managing stages 2 to 4 chronic kidney disease?

Paper No results yet Not peer reviewed

Key takeaways

This asks how well herbal supplements work for stage 2 to 4 chronic kidney disease. It is posted on Zenodo, an open repository that does not peer review what it hosts, so it has not passed the checks a journal article goes through. Some herbal products are directly harmful to damaged kidneys, and supplements are not tested for safety before sale. Nothing here supports taking a herbal supplement, and anyone with kidney disease should clear any supplement with their nephrologist first.
