Kidney Disease, Stage 5
Two Readers Respond, One A Medical Doctor!
November 29, 2011, COMMENTARY by DR. RICHARD SCHULZE
I always get response letters to my BLOG postings. Most of them are “Thank You's”, a few are “Burn in Hell, Dr. Schulze”, and some are great “Healing Testimonials” of customers who were usually sicker and worse than the customer who wrote the letter, and then healed their diseases using my programs. As usual, I got a lot of responses to last week’s BLOG—my answer to Regina M. from Lakeside, CA—whose kidneys were failing, functioning at only 9%, and on 10 Pharmaceutical Drugs. Here are two AWESOME responses!
Response From A Medical Doctor
Dr. Schulze,
You were incorrect. Regina, the lady that you answered in your BLOG, is on 11 medications! The pain medication she is on Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen (Norco) 10-325 mg. is a horrible kidney toxin and a combination of two different drugs (Acetaminophen plus Hydrocodone). This counts as two meds. So the story is even worse than you stated, and it gets worse…
She’s also on Lasix (Furosemide). A friend of mine was talking with the president of (Sanofi Aventis) the company that manufactures Lasix. My friend was suggesting to the president that he had some tools to assist the kidneys. The president of this company got really angry and said he’d fight my friend if necessary. He said his company made, get this… $20,000,000.00 net profit PER DAY from the sales of Furosemide alone!!!
I am an MD who supports the kind of advice you gave this poor soul! Please, keep it up!

Response from Dr. Schulze
Doc, thank you so much for your support and your information. I often find out from medical doctors like you, that the reality is even worse than I stated, or even imagined. And I knew that the diuretic and adult diaper business was huge, but as usual, I underestimated the enemy.
I really appreciate your support of my common sense natural medicine. We need a lot more medical doctors like you, my friend.

Lasix, has 41 additional names…
Like sugar, Lasix is sold under at least 41 different names besides its brand name (Lasix) and its generic name (Furosemide). Here they are: Aisemide, Apo-Furosemide, Beronald, Desdemin, Discoid, Diural, Diurapid, Dryptal, Durafurid, Edemid, Errolon, Eutensin, Flusapex, Frudix, Frusetic, Frusid, Fulsix, Fuluvamide, Furesis, Furix, Furo-Puren, Furosedon, Fusid.frusone, Hydro-rapid, Impugan, Katlex, Lasilix, Lodix, Lowpston, Macasirool, Mirfat, Nicorol, Odemase, Oedemex, Profemin, Rosemide, Rusyde, Salix, Trofurit, Uremide and Urex.

My Mom Was Worse And Is Healing Herself!
Dear Dr. Schulze,
Please pass my response on to Regina M. of Lakeside, CA, the person whose question you answered in last week’s BLOG re: kidneys functioning at 9%.
In August of this year (three months ago) my Mom, who is 71 years old, had a GFR of 6. (This equals a kidney function of only 6% to 7%, worse than Regina.) She was in Stage 5 (the worst and final stage) of kidney disease. She was referred to a specialist who advised her she must be placed on dialysis immediately. She asked to have two weeks reprieve before starting. The specialist agreed. (We later discovered that the specialist didn't hold out any hope for her anyways.)
We inquired of the medical doctor about using herbs. We were advised they could kill her and then we were told to go to a drugstore and get an OTC vitamin B supplement and folic acid.
GAME ON!
I asked her if she wanted to be doctored, or if she wanted to be healed (she chose healed). She ceased consuming all fast food and frozen dinners (her main dietary staples). At the time she was not able to keep much food down, so she started with the SuperFood-100 for basic nutrition. I made her drink as much K/B Tea as she could handle and got her on the K/B and Detox Formulae. We estimate she did about 2/3 of the 5-Day Kidney Detox.
Two weeks later her GBR was 9 (her kidney function INCREASED to from 6% to 10%) The medical doctor specialist was dumbfounded (as this never happens). He wanted to biopsy her kidneys to determine what was causing the fluctuation. As my mom comes from the generation of, "Doctor knows best," this was very difficult for her, but in her heart she knew the operation was wrong and might lead to her demise. She declined the operation.
I'm happy to report that my mom's GBR is now 25 (a kidney function INCREASED to over 27%, from 6%) which puts her in only stage 4 kidney disease and not stage 5 anymore. (A reversal of kidney disease medical doctors know absolutely nothing about!) She has not eaten any fast food or frozen dinners since her diagnosis. She now eats raw organic food and adjusts some foods tailored to a kidney disease diet.
I thank God she chose healing over doctoring, and, most of all, I thank God you made that possible. There is always hope!
If you would pass the above info on to Regina in Lakeside, I'd be appreciative.

Response from Dr. Schulze
Elizabeth, I thank God for daughters like you. Twenty or 30 years ago I would have asked you to come work for me in my clinic. Your mom is very lucky to have a daughter like you, so GREAT JOB! And keep it up, you are adding years, even decades to your mom’s life by refusing the biopsies, the dialysis and kidney transplants. You are saving your mom lots of sickness and torture, and saving yourself a lot of money. By the way, I guess the herbs didn’t kill her like the medical doctor predicted.
God Bless You!

Apples to Apples…
Just to be correct, in the first BLOG answer from last week, Regina M. said her kidneys were only working at 9%. In the second response this week, Elizabeth C. said her mother’s GFR was at 6, which equates to the kidney function being at about 6% or 7%. For you health geeks I offer the following GFR tech intel…
GFR for Health Geeks…
GFR or (glomerular filtration rate) is the total filtration rate of both of your kidneys working together. It is NOT an exact test, but rather a close estimate that your medical doctor can calculate from a blood test by counting the amount of filtration markers, like creatinine, that are present in your blood sample. This is the accepted standard estimate for overall kidney function and measured like 100mL/min/1.73 m2 or higher.
Basically a GFR of healthy people with kidneys that are healthy is between 90 and 116, above 90 usually for people under 60 with the highest ranges being in your twenties. From 60 to 69 years of age it is considered that 85 is normal and above 70 years of age it is considered that 75 is normal.
Fast Food & Frozen Food = SALT Overdose = Kidney DISEASE!
Elizabeth C’s mother was on almost a pure diet of junk food and frozen food. These two foods are the highest in salt. Salt is used specifically to enhance the flavor of poor quality food, and food that is overcooked and old. Salt is also a preservative.
Salt is also the worst food in the world for anyone with kidney disease or kidney impairment.
Salt is necessary to help your body retain its fluid balance. But, all the salt that you need is already naturally present in food; you do not need additional salt except in extreme circumstances and extremely hot climates.
Now, if someone already has kidney disease, and their body is already retaining fluids because their kidneys are not healthy and not functioning well, they are retaining fluid anyway. Then you add in salt, which causes them to retain even more fluid. This causes the blood pressure to skyrocket, which in turn damages the sensitive filtering cells of the kidneys even further. This is a deadly killer cycle for your kidneys and one that millions and millions of Americans have fallen into, taking diuretics and anti-hypertensive drugs, and eating salt-laden junk food. When you cut out the salt and junk food, you don’t need the diuretic and blood pressure drugs anymore and your kidneys will heal themselves as Elizabeth experienced with her mother.
BEWARE!
Junk food, prepared frozen foods, and even restaurant food usually has between 20 and 50 times more salt added to it than is naturally present in the food, or that you would add at home!

Ten Drugs—No Herbs!
November 22, 2011, ANSWER by DR. RICHARD SCHULZE
QUESTION
Dear Dr. Schulze,
My kidneys are now working at 9% and I am scheduled for the shunt procedure IN 2 WEEKS. I have spent the last four days reading and taking notes on the information that you have wrote regarding this matter. I am on a lot of medicine and don’t know what will counteract each other. When asking my Doctors about natural healing methods, they had a fit and advised me to not take any herbal medicine as it might harm me. Please, Please help me to know what to do with this issue. I am currently taking:
Glipizide 5mg. 2 times a day
Furosemide (Lasix) 20 mg. 2 tablets daily
Losartan (Cozaar) 50mg. 1 per day
Hydrocodone-Acetaminopnen (Norco) 10-325 mg. no more than 6 per day
Gabapentin (Neurontin) 300 mg. 2 per day
Fluoxetine (Prozac) 10 mg 3 per day
Atenolol (Tenormin) 50 mg. 1 1/2 tablets 2 times a day
Nortriptyline (Aventyl/Pamelor) 10 mg. 4 per day
Simvastatin (Zocor) 20mg. 1 per day
Beclomethasone Dipropionate (Qvar) 80 mcg. 1 puff 2 times a day
Should I keep taking the medicines and start the detox, or am I in danger of overdosing? Herbs are natural, but the doctors told me I would put myself in danger. I really just need some real guidance.
Please help me as I am in my final kidney days and need some Godly advise. I know you don’t e-mail, but I am begging you to make this exception.
Thank You,
— Regina M. in Lakeside, CA,
ANSWER
Dear Regina,
Sometimes when I get a letter like yours, and the story is so outrageous (like yours), I wonder if it’s a joke, and if someone is “pulling my leg”. Sadly, I know yours is a true story.
You are so far gone, and taking so many chemical drugs, that I don’t know of any natural doctor in the world that would touch you, let alone consider helping you. They wouldn’t even answer your email.
Luckily, people like you are my specialty. As you know, I spent the last decade of my clinical life dealing with people just like you. Patients would wait to come and see me until they had exhausted all other options, their organs were failing and they were at “death’s door”. Often I would see them after all their medical doctors would tell them they would be dead in a few months and that there was nothing more that they could do, and go home and die. And all of their natural doctors, psychics and religious healers had given up too and the priests had given them their last rites. So you are pretty healthy compared to them.
Finally, I have to laugh that your doctors warned you about the dangers of using herbal medicine, and that it may harm you, even though the doctors themselves have put you on 10 EXTREMELY POTENT, POWERFUL AND VERY DANGEROUS PHARMACEUTICAL DRUGS! What a joke! The doctors, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies must love you. You are paying for their yachts.
OK, let’s begin.
The program for you to start IMMEDIATELY is my Incurables Program. But besides this, I will tell you and the other readers some of the absolute most important steps that anyone must follow to literally save their life when their kidneys are failing.
FOOD
You must stop eating all solid food.
At this point you need to begin a liquid diet, but because your kidneys are failing, we need to keep the liquids to a minimum. We must also make sure that all liquids you consume are cleansing, detoxifying and flushing to your kidneys meaning that they are diuretic.
I would start with…
• 1 quart of Distilled Water daily
The water must be distilled, as this is the most cleansing water you can drink for your kidneys. It will dissolve any sludge or sediment in your urinary tract. Squeeze the juice of one lemon and one lime into this water.
• 1 quart of Organic Raw Juice daily
The reason I stress RAW is because I don’t want you drinking any cooked or pasteurized juices. So I want you to get a juicer and start making your own fresh, organic juice every day. In fact, I want you to not only get a juicer, but I want you to get a wheatgrass juicer, too. If you have a Champion juicer, you can simply get the attachment that allows you to also make your own fresh wheatgrass juice. If you must buy your juice in a store, buy it from a health food store where they will make it fresh for you while you wait. Below I will give you a few juice recipes.
Vegetable Juice Combination
All produce must be organic, of course.
8 ounces of Fresh Apple juice
8 ounces of Fresh Carrot juice
8 ounces of Fresh Beet root juice
4 ounces of Fresh Celery juice
2 ounces of Wheatgrass juice
adding through the juicer…
3 cloves of raw Garlic
6 pieces of Asparagus
1 piece of Ginger root
1 bunch of Parsley Leaf
Fruit Juice
I would start with my vegetable juice combination above, but a great diuretic fruit juice is watermelon. You can simply just eat an entire watermelon everyday. I know they are not in season right now, but I would find one anyway.
HERBAL MEDICINE
I would NOT start my 5-Day KIDNEY Detox just yet. This is simply because you cannot tolerate all the additional liquid.
But you must start on my K-B Formula and my K-B Tea.
Take 4 droppersful of my K-B Formula five times a day. You can just add it to the juices, water, or the tea that you will be drinking.
Drink as much of my K-B Tea as you can consume with a minimum of 16 ounces a day. Also, you must make it double-strength, so double my standard recipe using twice as much herbs in the water.
As far as your concerns or worries about any negative interaction between the drugs you are taking and any natural herbal medicine, forget about it. This is something you should’ve worried about a long time ago—long before you started taking so many dangerous pharmaceutical drugs. The medical doctors, hospitals, and even the drug companies have absolutely no idea what this lethal chemical cocktail will do to you that you are taking. It’s any wonder you are even alive!
I would also make absolutely sure that your bowel is empty and working efficiently. So I would start taking one of my nine different bowel tonic formulas immediately, if not all nine of them. A great one to start with would be my Bowel Flush “SHOT”, and then work to your daily personal dosage of my Intestinal Formula #1.
Additionally, I would take a double dose of SuperFood Plus every day. Don’t even bother to ask why.
ADDITIONAL ROUTINES
Movement: You must move vigorously one hour in the morning and an additional hour in the afternoon. I want you sweating and breathing hard.
Circulation: I want you to do my hot and cold shower hydrotherapy routine, multiple times a day, blasting the hot and cold water over your entire body, and then do it again, blasting the water onto the area of your kidneys.
Attitude: I don’t know what to tell you to get you to run away from the medical doctors, the hospitals and the drugs, but all I can say is that if I were you, I’d run like hell and not look back, and take my chances with my own natural self-healing lifestyle. You are at the kidney transplant door, so it’s long overdue for you to immerse yourself in a total Natural Healing lifestyle. Get your butt into all the health food stores you can find, and surround yourself with positive people who are behind you leaving the doctors and beginning this journey to heal yourself.
Spirit: Get as many self-help positive attitude and healing affirmation books that you can find. You can start with going right up to the top navigation bar on this BLOG site and click on my Quotes and Healing Affirmations, and read and re-read everything I say in both of these files every day. Remember, “Tomorrow is what you Believe and Do TODAY!”
A few closing thoughts…
As far as weaning off of all the chemical poison drugs that you are taking, this is something that you will have to figure out on your own. But generally speaking, I would wean your body off of them over the next couple of months, as you get stronger and healthier, and your kidneys start working better.
The big question that you have to ask yourself, is how did you get here? How did you get yourself into this mess, this desperate life-threatening situation? This will be the true healing for you. You need to discover why you have done this to yourself, and STOP doing this. Remember I always say that you can heal yourself of anything, any disease, and all you have to do is STOP doing what you did that made you sick in the first place and START doing what will Create Powerful Health.
In America, I often see people waddling around that weigh 250, 300, 400 pounds or more. I mean really obese half-human/half-cow looking things, that haven’t seen their own genitals in years. And I often wonder to myself at what point do these people not realize that they were negatively spinning out of control, self-destructing, killing themselves and ruining their lives? Like when they couldn’t tie their own shoes anymore, or wipe their own butt, or breathe or walk normally?
It takes a huge amount of unconscious living to get yourself into the position that you, and many, many Americans are in—as the average American senior over 65 is also taking a combination of 10 pharmaceutical drugs, just like you.
According to the American Medical Association themselves, properly prescribed medications like you are taking kill over 150,000 Americans every year. Personally, I think the real number is 1,000,000 dead!
So it is high time for you to WAKE UP! To realize that you are only steps away from death’s door, and that you must pull out all the stops, remove all your excuses, and put 110% into SAVING YOUR LIFE.
Remember, I had thousands of patients that were in much worse shape than you, and they were able to turn it all around, Create Powerful Health, and live a long, healthy, and happy life.
Do It Now!
