1 00:00:00,00 --> 00:00:18,100 Namaskar! I, Varnika welcomes you to the YouTube channel of Karma Ayurveda. 2 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:23,600 Today, we will tell you what is nephrotic syndrome and how does it spread in the children. 3 00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:29,500 Nephrotic syndrome is a normal kidneys' disease and 90% patients of this disease are children. 4 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,400 In nephrotic syndrome patient loses protein through urine. 5 00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:40,100 When you suffer from nephrotic syndrome then your kidneys' releases a protein named "Albumin" through urine. 6 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,300 Albumin helps your body to get rid of extra fluid. 7 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:50,000 But when your blood lacks albumin then extra fluid starts accumulating in your body 8 00:00:50,100 --> 00:00:56,100 due to which your body starts to swell. Mostly, the symptoms of this disease can be seen in the last stage. 9 00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:01,000 First is protein in urine, also known as proteinuria. 10 00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:04,900 The main function of the kidneys is to separate waste materials from minerals 11 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,400 but when kidney cannot filter it properly then protein comes out of the body along with the urine. 12 00:01:10,500 --> 00:01:15,300 Second is hypoalbuminemia which means deficiency of albumin (protein) in blood. 13 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:20,200 When protein comes out of the body through urine then the deficiency of protein in blood occurs. 14 00:01:20,300 --> 00:01:23,000 Third is cholesterol or elevation of fat. 15 00:01:23,100 --> 00:01:25,300 Our cholesterol also increases in this condition 16 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:30,200 therefore, for the patients of this disease it is kept in mind that their cholesterol doesn't rise. 17 00:01:30,300 --> 00:01:32,300 Last is swelling of the body (edema). 18 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:40,500 When kidneys cannot filter waste material then it gets accumulated in our blood resulting in swelling in the body. 19 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:48,200 There is no specific cause of this disease because it happens when kidneys cannot filter the blood properly. 20 00:01:48,300 --> 00:01:51,100 In adults, there are two reasons for this disease. 21 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:56,000 First is focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and second is diabetes. 22 00:01:56,100 --> 00:01:59,400 In children, the main reason for this disease is minimal change disease. 23 00:01:59,500 --> 00:02:10,800 35% and 65% of this disease occurs in children of age less than 6 and grown up kids respectively without any reason 24 00:02:10,900 --> 00:02:15,700 Food consumed by us puts direct impact to our kidneys. 25 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,400 This is why it is important to follow a good diet chart along with the treatment. 26 00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:24,600 Now we will tell you that what kind of diet a nephrotic syndrome patient should follow. 27 00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:30,500 First, if you are diabetic along with nephrotic syndrome then you should also take a good diet 28 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:36,200 so that their sugar remains controlled.
