Re: kidneys weak from diabetes....help
I took the tincture formula developed by Christopher/Schulze (https://www.herbdoc.com/index.php/?c=1) about a yr ago for 3 wks, 3 X day. It improved the color of the urine, so I knew it was making things better. A few months later the MD included the kidney GFR in the blood test. It came back that I was in Group 2. Group 5 needs dialysis. I am in late 60’s and for kidneys working that good meant those herbs were doing the job, for which I am grateful. Also, a heart tonic would probably be appropriate as well.
As for just taking high dosages of Vit C : From what I can decipher from writings of some of the great herbalists of our time, we need more than a single vitamin. Most of us don’t have time left to re-invent the wheel.
Here are the herbs found in this kidney formula, based on the work of Christopher & Schulze who shared freely.
