Do you drink or eat Chinese herbs?  Do you know what they are?  Well if you do tinker around in the garden of Chinese herbs and you don’t know what you’re actually ingesting STOP  immediately.

I don’t do Chinese herbs.  I never have.  I don’t even like green tea.  Yet every specialist, nurse and doctor I see asks me what Chinese herbs I’ve been taking.  Apparently the scarring on my kidneys could be the result of large amounts of unrecognisable herbs.

Now I’m not sure what a ‘large’ amount means for it to affect your kidneys or what type.  Like I said I’ve never dabbled in the world of natural remedies.  I am sure there are many very good herbs out there.  All I know is that my kidney medical friends are very concerned about what I’ve put into my body and I would like to share that concern.

So if you are prone to putting strange things in your mouth that you don’t know much about , I recommend you think twice and consider your poor kidneys.  Do your homework.  Be safe and keep your kidneys alive.  Because believe me it’s not much fun when you have to say goodbye.
