IgA nephropathy (IgAN) — Kidney autoimmune disease.

IgA nephropathy is an autoimmune disease with unique characteristics, such as "navigation failure" of antibodies (type A) to the wrong place! But as we know, the body never acts randomly!

IgA nephropathy- Short introduction and brainstorming.

Introduction.

Link: IgA nephropathy (Wikipedia)

• The disease manifests as the gradual destruction of the kidney glomeruli due to an IgA antibody precipitation inflammatory response.
• It is a disease that stems from a misidentification of the immune system.
• Type A antibody is often activated in moist tissues with mucous membranes typical of several systems, including the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. Therefore, the disease is believed to break out after a severe infection in mucous tissue.
• The disease is three times more common in men than in women (unlike most autoimmune diseases) and is most common in relatively young men. (Up to age 40)
• The disease's main risk in its non-acute form is a gradual deterioration over the years of kidney function to a state of chronic kidney failure.

Short Brainstorming.

As with other autoimmune diseases, emphasizing the mental dimension is critical. The trigger for the disease is an infection, but the latent cause is unresolved mental trauma. Without releasing the trauma from the subconscious, it is impossible to recover, but only to delay the development of the disease.

• IgA nephropathy is when the immune system mistakenly sends antibodies (type A) to the kidneys despite no pathogenic infection. IgA nephropathy patients are treated with the perception that they suffer from an autoimmune disease. Even though they do not have ANA antibodies (similar to other autoimmune diseases), the definition classifies the disease (mistakenly) as incurable, thus perpetuating it.
• This article presents a different approach to self-healing natural therapies to strengthen the immune system. It will initiate rehabilitation of the damaged kidneys. The cause of the disease is the weakening of the immune system! The sediment of the IgA antibody in the kidneys is not the cause of the disease but only the catalyst that exacerbates the patient's condition. Since IgA nephropathy is a disease that usually breaks out at a relatively young age, particular emphasis must be placed on the mental side, which requires treatment of unresolved traumas from the past.

Taking special care of the digestive system is essential to reducing the production of IgA antibodies. It is rich in mucous tissue and is the primary non-sterile system in our body.

Why can it be said with certainty that IgA nephropathy is curable?

The fact that conventional medicine cannot cure IgA nephropathy indicates that it is not curable using self-healing medicine.

• IgA nephropathy is characterized by remissions in which the disease stops or progresses slowly.
• Most chronic kidney patients, especially adults, would have needed dialysis if the kidneys could not replenish damaged cells. In reality, most chronic kidney patients do not reach dialysis!
• Not long ago, scientists of the human brain thought it could not replenish neurons (Neurogenesis), but now it turns out everyone was wrong! This ability exists and is significant. Therefore, one must not raise hands and surrender.
• Suppose you watch videos on YouTube of patients who have recovered from severe and seemingly impossible-to-recover illnesses (including severe cancer patients). In that case, you will find that these are decisive and determined patients to fight, who have found the way to self-healing. (Without naming it.)
• I have left with a few percent of liver function due to chronic hepatitis C. Who would look at my gallery with photos of giant worms 15-17 cm long in my digestive and liver system will wonder how I survived the impossible.

Recovery is possible from any health-acquired condition; it takes time, effort, determination, and perseverance. 

IgA nephropathy outbreaks underlying mental-energetic causes short analysis, using the Chakras (energy centers) method. 

Link: Chakra (Wikipedia) Note: A simple search will provide more detailed diagrams with elaborated information. (Recommended)  

The seven human Chakras (Energy Centers) and organs represent respective influential emotions. (The emotional settings I brought are slightly broader.)

General and Introduction -  The concept of energy centers. (Chakras)

Only Traumatic, Non-resolved mental and spiritual events from our past may block the life-force energy. (Traumatic resolved mental and spiritual events do not block the energy centers.) 

• These principles come from traditional Indian medicine (Ayurveda) and Chinese medicine, balancing the body. Western medicine completely ignores the human body's energetic being and misses an opportunity to understand chronic disease formation deeply.
• Diseases break out where life-force energy does not flow smoothly.
• When discussing stress and anxiety as significant causes of chronic morbidity, we must deepen and label the traumatic emotions to release them consciously.

Short analysis concerning IgA nephropathy. 

• The diagram shows that the kidneys are in the centers (Chakra-1,2.) The corresponding possible traumatic emotions are probably related to Basic trust (fear), career, money mindset and sense of belonging, Sexuality, and Pleasure Creativity. 
• Chronic inflammation is also related to energy centers (Chakras - 3,4). The corresponding possible traumatic emotions are probably associated with Wisdom, Personal Power, and the ability to channel Love, Relationships, and self-acceptance.
• Only the patient himself can interpret the traumatic events.
• It is worth mentioning that only Traumatic, Unresolved mental and spiritual events from the past can block life force energy. 

My example is too simplistic but illustrates the idea and encourages self-searching.

• The symptomatic organ should be adjusted to its energy center, and the traumatic emotions that block it must be identified and released.
  • You should consider assisting a certified hypnotist if the result cannot be reached through an internal search.
• Prolonged and severe multi-system diseases must be restored according to the chronological order of symptoms.
• In many cases (as in mine), the mix of traumatic emotions and several energy centers makes locating the energy block source challenging.
• The right side is the male at the energetic level, while the left is related to the female and the offspring. Therefore, trauma with the mother or a brother, for example, will be expressed in various locations!

The severity of symptoms. 

• The intensity of the symptoms is related to the body's general energy (in the central energy channel) and the specific organ or organs' energy level.

Self-healing natural therapies for IgA nephropathy patients.

Mental and Spiritual Empowerment- Critical. (Often underestimated) 

Link: Mental and Spiritual Empowerment.

• Love and emotional support (not just logistical), knowing that having someone with you has immense meaning in these difficult moments. With love and support, Hope strengthens the energy of life and dramatically improves recovery chances.
• Hypnosis (Authorized only) in severe cases when the onset of CKD is young. Traumatic events are often kept subconscious and complex to locate on our own. Hypnotherapy requires patient collaboration. (I needed many hypnosis-like sessions. )
• Releasing tension and spiritual calm. (Such as yoga, meditation, and Tai Chi )
• Acupuncture has excellent benefits without any side effects. Although it begins as a physical act, it is essentially an energetic action aimed at opening blockages along the body's energy channels (Meridians). Successful acupuncture can be painful, but the pain usually indicates effective treatment. (The pain stems from energy flow in a blocked life-force energy channel!)

Lifestyle and Eating Habits.

• Goodnight's sleep is imperative to achieve a successful alcohol withdrawal. Daytime rest has no similar effect; sleep hours cannot be completed during the day.
• Use of drugs and supplements. All drugs (and sometimes some supplements) harm the immune system. Do not expect the support of doctors to reduce medication.
• Eating habits: Do not eat late at night. Eat comfortably and well-chewed. Late-night eating transfers essential resources from the immune system to the digestive system.
• Diet sugar-free and soft drinks - soft drinks and diet drinks harm many vital organs and damage the immune system.
• Food composition - It is highly advisable not to combine high doses of carbohydrates with animal protein; they substantially affect insulin resistance. Animal proteins should be eaten with plant foods containing dietary fiber. It is desirable to pour natural oil on carbohydrates (preferably with a low glycemic index); it helps emulsify the digestive system.
• Sex with deep feelings can charge the life-force energy.
• Controlled Solar-baths. (Essential for proper physiology and charges the life-force energy.) Fear of contracting skin cancer and working indoors for many hours has created a situation where many people, even in sunny countries, are deficient in vitamin D. The sun soothes the mind and improves the mood! 

Nutritional recommendations for IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients.

Recommended link: The balanced-varied diet is the most suitable anti-inflammatory diet.

Very few IgAN patients have proper diets and eating habits, even though many believe they eat healthy!

Introduction.

• Fats, protein, carbohydrates, and natural sugars are needed; it is wrong to deny one of the macronutrients completely.
• The need for various foods (mainly from plants) allows the body to get all the nutrients (enzymes, minerals, electrolytes, dietary fiber, antioxidants) through food and drinks. High-quality and varied foods and sun-controlled exposure almost eliminate the need for sometimes harmful supplements and absorb less than quality food.

Specific nutritional recommendations for chronic kidney patients.

• Patients with chronic kidney disease require a diet low in animal protein, which is harder to digest and burdens the liver and kidneys by breaking down ammonia into urea and uric acids. Recommended foods include eggs, deep-sea fish, bone marrow, and goat yogurt. (Goat cheeses measured amount) 
• Doctors advise patients not to consume vegetables because they contain potassium or sodium, but rather, the recommendation causes an increase in the consumption of animal proteins. It should be emphasized that most potassium and sodium intake comes from industrialized foods. Potassium and sodium in fruits and vegetables are far less harmful and come with essential nutrients and fiber critical for the digestive and immune systems.

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients may suffer from severe farting.

• Imbalances in intestinal flora often manifested themselves in farting. Farting during the recovery period is often a positive sign! (Contrary to what is commonly thought) they reflect attempts by good bacteria to control the parasites. (Dead parasites release gas.)
• Taking control of the good bacteria over the parasites is usually accompanied by much farting. This process can take several months. There is no need to panic and see the recommended diet as if it failed. On the contrary!

Recommended food:

1. Start your morning by drinking one cup of squeezed lemon juice with lukewarm water. (It is even better if you add one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar + one tablespoon of olive oil.)
2. Vegetables, seeds, sprouts, roots, nuts, legumes, beans, lentils, mushrooms, fruits, and berries.   
3. Moist low-medium glycemic index starches such as rice, sweet potato, taro root, and spelled quinoa. (You better add a teaspoon of coconut oil, ghee-purified butter, or other natural oils for better absorption.)
4. Organic range-free eggs (especially egg yolk) are excellent emulsifiers due to their high lecithin content. (Good quality egg yolk has an orange color.)
   1. Egg yolk is rich in vitamin D3.
5. Eat wild deep-sea fish two to three times a week. (They are less contaminated and also have a high omega-3 content.)
   • Fish is easy to digest and does not create a very acidic environment in the intestines.
6. Berries are among the most potent antioxidants, and they can be combined with fruit, goat yogurt, cinnamon, and walnuts. (Like all probiotics, yogurt may cause gas bloating, which is usually a good sign.)
7. The liver, in particular, benefits from all-natural bitter foods. (Such as grapefruit and dark chocolate.)
8. Dietary fiber (found only in plant-based diets) is essential for gut recovery. It might cause a reaction like gas bloating. (Fiber helps to feed the good bacteria.)
9. Fermented products with natural live bacteria, such as goat yogurt or natural kombucha, are essential for good health.
10. Consuming high-quality fats like Olive oil, flaxseed oil, hemp oil, Ghee (purified butter), and coconut oil, together with fiber, helps lubricate the lining of the intestinal walls. It is essential to replenish the good bacteria and help regenerate intestinal wall tissue.
11. Regular eating of bone marrow (possibly in soup) is especially recommended.
12. Consuming Iodine regularly (for proper thyroid function) is essential. (The easiest way is to consume Himalayan pink salt.)
13. Consuming sulfur foods such as avocado, onion, garlic, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, and kale is recommended to strengthen the immune system.

Which bread is the healthiest? (Sprouted bread, rye, spelled, or whole flour sourdough bread.) 

• Healthy bread is dense and tends to be massive. (Especially bread made without yeast.)
• Bread with low gluten is best. Most healthy bread has low gluten. (Although not zero percent gluten)
• There are many bread recipes. Most people do not bake their bread, so buying bread from a reliable source is essential. The best are small specialized bakeries that deliver organic whole-grain sourdough bread.
• Sprouted bread is most recommended for everyone. Sprouting releases enzymes that break the grain shell. Sprouted bread has low gluten and is much easier to digest because enzymes start breaking the grain shell. (which is hard to digest)
• Low-calorie bread is less dense and weighs less. Heavy bread makes you feel full faster.

Minimize eating white flour and yeast bread; it disturbs the gut flora balance.

Recommended beverages:

• Water, tea (without sugar or milk), black coffee (without sugar or milk), and freshly squeezed juice. (It should not be too sweet.)
  • Drinking fresh juice may cause gas bloating. It is inevitable and part of the recovery process.

Due to intestinal wall damage, appropriate discipline in eating and drinking is required. 

• Until symptoms significantly improve, the list of foods and beverages not recommended is quite long, but that should not surprise anyone.
• Eating mainly cooked, soft, warm, and moist food is recommended. (Easier to digest)
• The additional nutrients that the body needs for recovery will come from drinking natural, fresh-squeezed juices.

Food and beverages are not recommended; minimize consumption.

• All Processed food, smoked food, preservatives, and canned food. (Huge category.)
• Soft drinks of all kinds, including diet beverages. 
• Plain sugars and high glycemic starches. (Such as white flour products, potatoes, white bread, biscuits, cakes, etc.)
• Eating high doses of sweet fruits. (Grapes and watermelon, especially, contain glucose.) Sugars can create an imbalance in gut flora.   
• Trans-fats (found in many industrialized products) like Margarine are very harmful.
• Yeast bread. (Sourdough bread is much better.)
• Dairy products are unsuitable for IgAN patients as they contain too many proteins and create an acidic environment in the intestines.
  • Goat's milk or yogurt is much better. (Limited quantities.)
• High gluten content products. (Gluten protein is found in most cereals. Gluten tends to adhere to intestinal walls and will probably aggravate symptoms.)
• Reduce meat and poultry consumption by 50% or more. (Meat and poultry are hard to digest and create a high-acidity environment in the intestines.)
• Leafy greens. (Until significant relief in symptoms. They tend to stick to the inflamed intestinal walls.)
• Spicy hot foods are usually beneficial, but they may worsen symptoms. (Dead pathogens release toxins and gas - the Herxheimer effect.)
• It is not recommended to eat large amounts of carbohydrates and animal proteins. (This includes meat or dairy products with potatoes or other high-glycemic starches.)

Recommended eating habits.

It is advisable to eat two main meals a day plus snacks (for those who need them). Dinner should be easy to digest and early, maximum up to 7 in the evening, because most tissue regeneration occurs during sleep. The digestive system needs constant rehabilitation; prolonged breaks between meals are preferable to continuous eating.

• Minimize eating away from home, preferably taking home food to work and not buying outside.
• Prepared food deliveries are a terrible alternative! They contain processed and industrialized food at the most harmful levels.
• Chew well, take a break, and eat comfortably.
• Do not eat late at night.
• Intermittent fasting (not with zero calories) has many benefits.
• Fresh vegetables should be sprinkled with olive oil or other oils such as hemp or flaxseed.
• Add a little fat with a higher melting temperature, such as coconut oil or Ghee butter, boiled or baked starches, or vegetables. (Although they are saturated fats.)
• Especially after a meal that includes animal protein (which is more difficult to digest), taking a short 20-30-minute walk at a moderate speed is recommended. Walking helps the digestive process.

We eat with all our senses, so filling the plate with various vegetables seasoned with oils and spices is desirable. (This includes aromatic salt.)

Recommended additional physical therapies.

• Mechanical Detoxification. (By unblocking and cleansing the liver & kidneys.) 
  • Liver cleansing includes drinking natural squeezed juices, coffee, and baking soda—probiotic enemas of live bacteria. 
  • Link: Liver and Gallbladder flush. Instructions, Benefits, and Risks.
• Exercise and massage to improve blood & lymphatic circulation. Regular exercise is essential for moving lymph fluid, the second line of body defense.
• Food supplements and antioxidants (as little as possible) restore the body's balance and deficiencies.
  • Link: Supplements I used in the past regularly and occasionally.

Summary, conclusions, and recommendations. 

Taking special care of the digestive system is essential to reducing the production of IgA antibodies. It is rich in mucous tissue and is the primary non-sterile system in our body. It is advisable to take advantage of the liver's remarkable regeneration capabilities, lower the burden on the injured kidneys, and initiate kidney cell regeneration.

If you seek doctors' advice, do not expect your doctor's support for self-healing medicine.

I recommend everyone delve into the principles of self-healing before deciding and learning the differences between conventional medicine and self-healing medicine.

• Improved liver blood flow and bile fluids, through naturally squeezed juices, coffee enemas, liver, and gallbladder flushes, impact the immune system and the liver kidneys.
• Combined with the proper habits and an appropriate and supportive diet, far-reaching results can be achieved, and even the condition of patients who need dialysis can be restored.
• The emotional-mental side has tremendous significance in every CKD recovery.

IgA nephropathy is not an incurable disease, even in its advanced stages.

• It is worth internalizing - there is no such thing as an incurable disease. (Except for genetic diseases.)
• Remissions often characterize IgA nephropathy. They are not accidental; they result from an increase in the body's life-force energy level.
• Full recovery is guaranteed for those ready to embark on the inner journey of self-healing. (The process can be lengthy, but healing is already felt in the early stages.) 

IgA nephropathy underlying causes.

• IgA nephropathy's underlying causes are unhealthy lifestyles combined with anxiety & traumatic Non-resolved events from the past. (The disease usually breaks out after acute infection of the respiratory or digestive system.)
• Recovery occurs only when all the disease causes (mental and physical) are resolved and eliminated.
• Symptomatic treatments usually cannot cure the patient, as they do not eliminate the disease's causes.

The age factor - An unhealthy physical lifestyle vs. Traumatic non-resolved events from the past.

• The age factor - As symptoms onset at a younger age (35 years or less), it is more likely that the weight of unresolved mental traumas is higher than the unhealthy lifestyle. The explanation is that the process of cell aging and death is cumulative, while unresolved traumatic events have an immediate and cumulative effect.

Prolonged use of medications and Supplements is harmful. (Including herbal supplements.)

• Prolonged use of most drugs, especially non-herbal drugs, has side effects (sometimes intolerable) and cumulative damage to the body that comes out of balance.
• A balanced and appropriate diet with naturally fermented products (or live probiotics) and controlled exposure to the sun are recommended to minimize dietary supplements for those who are not vegan.

Try to minimize or avoid.

• High blood pressure medications, Taking angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), can lower your blood pressure and reduce protein loss; immunosuppressants (Such as steroids), Statin therapy (Cholesterol-lowering drugs), Diuretics.

Economic aspects.

• The economic burden of doctors, drugs, and treatments is sometimes very high. (In my case, the expenditure was exceptionally high.)
• Despite the enormous expenditure on food and juices, the savings on medicines and doctors, not to mention the suffering and low quality of life, invest in self-healing, primarily economic, in the long run.

Self-healing is like "Performing miracles." Every human being has this capability. It just needs to be revealed.

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) — Kidney autoimmune disease.

1. How does IgA nephropathy differ from other autoimmune diseases?

IgA nephropathy is an autoimmune disease with unique characteristics of - "navigation failure" of antibodies (types A) to the wrong place! But as we know, the body never acts randomly!

 The disease's manifestation is the gradual destruction of the kidney glomeruli due to an IgA antibody precipitation inflammatory response.

 Type A antibody is often activated in moist tissues with mucous membranes.

 A "mistake in the navigation" of the antibodies A to a past infection in moist tissue is a case unique to IgA nephropathy. (IgAN)

 All the above answers are correct and appropriate for the case.

See my suggested, most suitable answer »

A more detailed explanation:

1. The most suitable answer is answer number 4.
As with other autoimmune diseases, emphasizing the mental dimension is critical. The trigger for the disease is an infection, but the latent cause is unresolved mental trauma. Releasing the unresolved trauma from the subconscious makes is vital to recovery from IgA nephropathy. (IgAN)
