Whole System Kidney
Nutri-West
Overview
The effectiveness of 'Whole System Kidney' is questionable due to several factors. While some individual ingredients like Uva Ursi and Juniper have traditional uses related to urinary health, the specific dosages provided for many botanicals may be below those shown to be effective in limited studies. Moreover, the inclusion of 'Kidney' and 'Liver' glandulars lacks strong scientific backing for direct kidney health benefits in supplement form. The overall blend's synergistic effects on kidney health are not supported by robust clinical trials.
The Good
Contains some ingredients, like Juniper and Uva Ursi, with traditional uses for urinary and kidney support, although scientific evidence for efficacy at these doses is limited.
Beetroot is included, which has some evidence for improving blood flow due to its nitrate content, offering potential indirect benefits.
Includes a small amount of Vitamin C, an antioxidant.
The Bad
Many key botanical ingredients are likely underdosed based on traditional medicinal practices and available research for their intended effects on kidney health.
The inclusion and amount of 'Kidney' and 'Liver' glandulars lack scientific evidence for therapeutic benefits in human kidney support.
Lack of robust clinical studies on the specific combination of ingredients in 'Whole System Kidney' for overall kidney health.
