Chapter 12: Freedom from Chronic Kidney Disease and Uremic Complications

Mr. Hoang (49), Pharmacist.

“With serum creatinine climbing toward dialysis levels and heavy proteinuria, my nephrologist warned of irreversible renal failure. Cultivation reversed the disease course completely.”

1. Approaching the Dialysis Threshold

Suffering from chronic glomerulonephritis for eight years, Mr. Hoang experienced progressive deterioration in renal filtration rate (eGFR 24 mL/min) with generalized edema, severe fatigue, and intractable renal anemia.

2. The Shift in Life Philosophy

Realizing that as a pharmacist he understood drugs but not the ultimate origin of disease, he immersed himself in the cultivation of moral integrity and regular practice of the five exercises.

3. Restoration of Renal Function

Over six months of practice, urinary protein disappeared, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine returned to physiological normal baselines, and his eGFR rose back above 85 mL/min, completely averting hemodialysis.
