Tweetcranberry juice is good for preventing bacterial infections of the urinary tract... I doubt this is the kinda stress that steroids place on the kidneys.

Just stick with a good antioxidant formula and a good amount of water (but don't go crazy cause that can put stress on them as well).

I would say one of the main things is to keep your blood pressure normal and to make sure your blood sugar is normal. Those are probably the two most common causes of kidney dysfunction.

Tweet1. Get regular blood tests done and be especially aware of creatinine levels and creatinine to BUN ratios.
2. Closely monitor your blood pressure, and if it gets high, use the appropriate medication to bring it down.
3. Keep your sodium intake in check.
4. Drink plenty of water. This helps to control carbon dioxide levels, relative electrolyte concentrations, and total weak acid concentrations in the blood; all of which are variables that regulate pH in blood plasma.
5. Avoid regular use of the following drugs: Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Piroxicam, Penicillin G, Furosemide, and Cimetidine.

Cholesterol levels and blood glucose levels are also important factors, but when you develop problems there, related kidney problems become secondary to the more pertinent problem.

Forget about wonder supplement X, juju bee extract, or whatever other stupid-ass cure all herbal remedy there is; use real diagnostic tests and medications.

I know I sound like I’m hatin’ on supplements, but I get pissed off when people use compounds (steroids) with the known potential to cause medical problems, and then think that they can fix everything with some stupid-ass untested and unproven supplement. I’m really sure that the salesperson at GNC can sell you just what you need to keep your health in tiptop condition.

It’s like, oh yeah; I’ll spend ridiculous amounts of money on supplements because they’re easily accessible, but God forbid that I actually get a blood test done so that I know exactly where and when problems arise and how to deal with them properly.

Okay, I’m done spazin’ out. Sorry if I sound like a jerk.

Tweetan anti-estrogen will go a long way towards reducing BP. Water retention (edema) in general causes your BP to increase.

TweetHow many times have you read something along the lines of this:

"I am using a hardcore carginogenic liver toxic chemical but thanks to the extract of the seeds of the zibabwean river cactus I can stop it from damaging my health. It's on the Internet so it must be true"
