Abstract
Existence of effective component such as scent, flavor and therapeutic properties in herbs make them suitable as dietary supplement and remedies. Many people believe that products labeled “natural” are always safe and good for them. This is not necessarily true. Herbal medicines do not have to go through the testing that drugs do, but a nephrology view point on one hand may indicate lots of renal injury caused by herbal drugs and on the other hand some beneficial medicinal plant in order to treatment of kidney chronic diseases. Hence, this study has been tried to give some significant information about herbal supplement you are taking.
