How Does Ormus C11 Work In End Stage Renal Disease Patients?

My father who is 52 has had end-stage renal disease for 12 yrs and has been doing home dyalisis for the last 6 yrs. Someone told me to get him to start takeing ORMUS c-11 and gave us a few bottles of it. I have never heard of ORMUS before and was wondering if it would hurt him to take it since he does not urinate and wont be able to get it out of his system..Or will the dyalisis take care of this. And do you have any info on patients taking this?

hello
Thanks for query .
Your father is a victim of Chronic Kidney disease (CKD) since 12 years and is been dialyzed at home since last 6 years .

Chronic Kidney disease is end stage disease characterized by inanability to regenerate the functioning unit of kidney called Nephrone .Hence there are no chances of recovery by any means .

The ORMUS C-11 is a mineral preparation containing 11 various essential minerals However in CKD already there is gross damage to the functioning unit of kidney hence any additional burden of minerals will make the situation more complicated .

Hence I would suggest you to refrain from using these unscientific products
