Episode 11.11.2026 - Natural Solutions to Chronic Kidney Disease

SUMMARY

This week, The Dr. Ardis Show presents Natural Solutions for Chronic Kidney Disease. Dr. Bryan Ardis begins with how the Cleveland Clinic defines chronic kidney disease, the five stages measured by glomerular filtration rate (GFR) on routine bloodwork, and the causes and risk factors it lists. He then reviews the published side effects of several commonly prescribed medications, including lisinopril, losartan and statins, and asks viewers to look closely at what those labels say about the kidneys.

In the second half, Dr. Ardis walks through published research on nutrients he favors for kidney health, including black cumin seed oil (Nigella sativa) and its compound thymoquinone, vitamin D, selenium, N-acetyl cysteine and piperine from black pepper, with the cited studies shown on screen. He closes with the Nature Wins products that contain these nutrients. A free PowerPoint with every reference is available from the Resources tab and from the download button on this episode page.
