How Diabetes Affects Kidneys

Diabetes can be a lifelong condition that requires patients to develop new habits and abandon old ones. The good news is that diabetes can be controlled with a little bit of discipline. By managing your diabetes, you can continue enjoying life and potentially avoid complications like kidney disease, which can develop in patients with diabetes.

If diabetes is uncontrolled, the consequences can be serious. About 30% of patients with type 1 diabetes will develop kidney disease.1 The number increases to 40% in patients with type 2 diabetes.1 But the proper lifestyle, diet, and probiotics can help you keep your diabetes in check and help maintain proper kidney function.

The connection between diabetes and kidney health

Diabetes mellitus is classified as either type 1 or type 2.Type 1 diabetes occurs when the pancreas is not able to produce insulin.1 Insulin helps the body metabolize sugar. With no insulin, the result is high blood glucose, which causes problems throughout parts of the body. In order to make up for this, patients with type 1 diabetes will need insulin injections for the duration of their life along with regular exercise and a strict diet.

In type 2 diadiabetes and kidney healthbetes, the pancreas is able to produce insulin, but the body does not use it properly.1Because the body is producing insulin, patients may not need insulin injections but they will still need regular exercise and a strict diet to keep their blood glucose levels within the normal range. Unlike patients with type 1 diabetes, there is a possibility of eliminating symptoms of type 2 diabetes if blood glucose can be controlled with medication, diet, and/or regular exercise. But this can be difficult to achieve and many patients are unable to go into remission.

So how does diabetes affect your kidneys? A healthy kidney consists of tiny blood vessels that filter toxins from the blood. In both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, the small blood vessels in the kidneys become overworked because they are filtering more blood due to high levels of blood glucose. Over time, this leads to kidney disease.1 If your kidneys begin to shut down, these toxins will slowly build up in the blood, leading to end-stage renal disease. However, a healthy lifestyle coupled with the right probiotic can help support your kidney function long into your future and may help you avoid these issues.

How Renadyl™ helps with its Proprietary Probiotics

Renadyl™ is a patented and proprietary probiotics dietary supplement that has been scientifically formulated and clinically tested. Renadyl™ metabolizes nitrogenous waste that has diffused from the bloodstream into the bowel. Nitrogenous wastes are utilized by Renadyl™ as nutrients. As probiotics grow and multiply, they consume more nitrogenous waste and therefore effectively help maintain healthy kidney function. The nitrogenous metabolites are eliminated as solid waste/fecal matter.

Every Capsule of Renadyl™ contains..

45 Billion CFUs

High concentration of probiotic microbes aka Colony-forming Units (CFUs)

2 Prebiotic Fibers

to promote the growth of the probiotics found in Renadyl™ and your own beneficial gut microbes.

3 Proprietary Strains

of helpful Bacteria selected by science for their ability to metabolize nitrogenous waste.
