Creatinine has a direct link with your Kidneys. 
So, it becomes necessary for a kidney patient 
to understand Creatinine.

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:22,100
But before this, let's understand what creatinine 
is. Actually, creatinine is a waste product 
made by our muscles that send out of the 
body during blood filtration in the kidneys.

3
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:30,400
When our kidneys are not functioning properly, 
then blood filtration doesn't take place 
in a proper manner.

4
00:00:30,500 --> 00:00:38,600
As a result, creatinine doesn't come out 
of the body, so creatinine level increases 
in the body gradually.

5
00:00:38,700 --> 00:00:47,300
If our kidneys function well, then our creatinine 
level starts getting normal. In normal kidneys, 
creatinine gets filtered and comes out of 
the body.

6
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:53,300
Aside from this, foods with enough protein 
amount can escalate creatinine levels.

7
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:58,900
You may have become well aware that it's 
necessary for a kidney to function properly.

8
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:07,100
Now you should understand when creatinine 
level gets normal. The creatinine level varies 
according to gender.

9
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:19,900
In women, the normal level ranges between 
0.5 to 1.1 mg/dL while in men the level ranges 
between 0.6 to 1.2 mg/dL.

10
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:28,900
Besides these, if talking about teenagers, 
the level ranges between 0.5 to 1.0 mg/dL.

11
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:42,200
Due to some reasons, if the level exceeds 
the limit, then a kidney problem may arise. 
This later turns into a dangerous kidney 
disease, and patients end up getting dialysis.

12
00:01:42,300 --> 00:01:52,000
Now, let's get to know how to reduce increased 
creatinine, after which dialysis is no longer 
required.

13
00:01:52,100 --> 00:01:59,500
As we used to tell in most of the videos, 
drink more and more water. Patients should 
limit the salt intake in their diet.

14
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:04,400
Reduce the consumption of dairy products 
like milk, ghee, etc.

15
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:14,500
Also, try to consume sodium in a limited 
amount. Being a patient, you can include 
yoga and walking instead of gym and running.

16
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,400
You must have atleast 7-8 hours of proper 
sleep.

17
00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:26,300
You should include berries, lemon juice, 
and vitamin-rich cabbage in your food items.

18
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:31,200
Now, let's get to know who is more at risk 
of getting high creatinine level.

19
00:02:31,300 --> 00:02:44,100
People already suffering from any Kidney 
disease, Diabetes, weaker immunity, or High 
blood pressure are more at risk.

20
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:50,000
So, today through this video, we learned 
what creatinine is and how to reduce it?

21
00:02:50,100 --> 00:02:54,900
If you have any queries related to Kidneys, 
then let us know through comment.

22
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,100
We will soon come along the video on that 
topic. Till then, take care and stay healthy.
