Taiwan, named the 'Dialysis Capital,' has over 90,000 dialysis patients—the highest globally—and a study from China Medical University Hospital found that a specific traditional Chinese medicine formula can improve kidney circulation, stabilize early-stage kidney disease caused by diabetes, and reduce proteinuria. Using a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment can lower cardiovascular mortality by 70%. A 68-year-old woman, Mrs. Li, who had been diabetic for 20 years and neglected medication and dietary adjustments, saw complications such as retinopathy, uremia, and kidney disease. After less than a year of integrated treatment, including adjusting diet and receiving traditional Chinese medicine, her kidney function improved slightly, avoiding the need for dialysis.
