Naturopathic Philosophy Case Analysis Essay Word Count: 1070 The time spent in consultation with a patient is one of the biggest differences between naturopathy and conventional medicine.

The purpose of dialysis is to help keep the body’s chemicals in balance, which kidneys do on their own when they are healthy. The main function of dialysis is to remove waste and excess fluid from the blood to prevent build-up, to control blood pressure, and to keep a safe level of chemicals in the body such as potassium, sodium, and chloride (Dialysis, 1999-2012). According to the Mayo clinic, people with chronic kidney disease leading to kidney failure are the most appropriate reasons for a transplant of the kidney or kidneys.
The mutation in CFTR causes the cells to be unable to handle sodium and chloride correctly. This causes cells in affected organs to have a problem in the way sodium and chloride travel in and out of cells. This causes the mucus outside the cells to be too thick, as in the airways of the lungs (Kenny,
