Creatinine is produced naturally in our body and it is stored in muscles. Creatinine play are vast role in the process of production of ATP. Creatinine is eliminated through excretory system and there is no reabsorption of creatinine in blood stream.

Many factors contribute to accumulation of extra creatinine in blood. These factors may include:

• Dehydration
• Muscle destruction
• Chemotherapies
• Inadequate amount of fluid intake
• Excessive intake of medicines

Increased level of creatinine may leads to kidney failure. There are some common symptoms that indicates high creatinine level in body. These symptoms may include:

• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Loss of appetite
• Less urine output
• Dark color urine
• Frequent urination during sleeping hours
• fatigue

NATURAL WAYS TO REDUCE CREATININE LEVEL

1. CONTROL HYPERTENSION AND DIABETES

Both the conditions are very harmful for kidneys. It is very essential to keep your diabetes and hypertension in control. Medication of diabetes and hypertension contribute a lot to accumulation of creatinine in blood.so it is very necessary to make you happy and relax. Try to take natural herbs to reduce the risk of renal failure because it is very necessary to control that conditions which disturb creatinine level of blood.

2. MASSAGE

Massage is practiced from ancient times. This process involves rubbing, pressing, movements and pressures. Massage is therapy used to restore the imbalance of vata dosha in body and other benefit of massage is relaxation. Massage therapy clears blocked channels and stimulates the process of purification of blood.

Proper blood supply of blood is very essential for our excretory system.

3. HERBAL TEAS

Many scientific studies proves that certain herbal teas are used to reduce the creatinine level from blood. Herbal tea contains anti-oxidant and stimulate process of purification of blood. 3 cups of herbal tea per day stimulates the functions of kidneys. With the increase in kidney functions there is gradual increase in process of urination. Faster urination flushes out extra creatinine, toxin and other waste products from body. Planet Ayurveda provides various herbal supplements to reduce creatinine level from blood. Our detox tea is a delicious herbal tea with various medicinal herb benefits. It helps in the process of detoxification without any side effects. It reduces cholesterol level and helps to maintain normal blood pressure and sugar level.

4. VEGETARIAN DIET

Consumption of vegetarian diet also helps to reduce creatinine level. Animal products are great sources of creatine and creatinine. Rather than animal products it is necessary to intake vegetable and plant rich diet like nuts and legumes. Vegetarian diet reduces the risk of diseases like diabetes and kidney failure.

5. REDUCED ACTIVITY LEVEL

During extra physical activities and exercise our body converts food into energy quickly due to increased metabolism. More creatinine is produced in our body as a result of muscle metabolism. It does not meant that you completely restrict your daily routine exercise. Exercise can give numerous benefits to our overall health but it should be in certain limits.

6. SUN EXPOSURE

We all know that sunlight and cod liver oil are very great sources of vitamin-D. Taking sunbath daily at least for 30 minutes will improve the vitamin-D level in our body. This exposure to sun helps in the healthy deposition of calcium level in bones and sunlight also lowers blood pressure and cholesterol level.

7. MANAGE YOUR DIET

Restrict high amount of sodium in your diet. Try to take low amount but high quality protein in your diet. Limit intake of phosphorous and potassium and try to take supplements rich in vitamin-A and C. Biscuits, soft drinks, packed food processed foods are totally restricted. Juices of citrus fruits like lemon, oranges and grapefruits also increases the creatinine level in blood.

8. HERBS

Various herbs like punarnava, varuna, shigru, apamarg etc. in our ayurvedic medicine system are used to cure renal failure and to lower down extra creatinine in blood. All the herbs are very effective for inflammation of kidneys and to reduce extra accumulated fluid in body. Planet Ayurveda provides various supplements which contains all the herbs mentioned above. We provide herbal packs for both early and advanced stages of kidney failure. These all herbs works miraculously and reduce the risk of diseases related to excretory system. All the herbs used in ayurvedic system are pure and have no side effects.

9. FLUID INTAKE

Staying hydrated is very essential for kidneys because dehydration is also one major cause to rise creatinine level. Generally intake 8-oz glasses of water every day. Less fluid slower down the process of excretion. So intake of more water every day is very essential to flush out extra creatinine and other toxin from blood.

10. PROPER SLEEP OR REST

Sleep is condition of physical and psychological rest. Proper rest is very essential for our body. When we sleep our metabolism level decreases and it slower the conversion of creatine into creatinine. It is very essential to sleep 6-9 hours per day for every human being. So above mention natural ways help to reduce creatinine level. By managing your diet, regular exercise, healthy sleep and herbs make you relax and give a healthy life.

DIET IN KIDNEY FAILURE - HOW TO AVOID DIALYSIS

DIET IN KIDNEY FAILURE AND RENAL DISEASE – DIET FOR RENAL PATIENTS- DIETARY ADVICE FOR KIDNEY FAILURE PATIENTS  & HOW TO AVOID DIALYSIS

The kidneys are very important organ in the body. Their action is closely related to the Nervous system and Reproductive organs. They are as important to the water metabolism as the colon is to food. Just as wrong eating habits damage the stomach on G.I.Tract, improper intake of the liquids damage the kidneys and the urinary tract.

The kidneys are weakened by drinking either too much or too little water, by alcohol, by excessive sexual activity, by antibiotics and by not heeding the urge to urination. Fear and fright damage the kidneys on a psychological level. They are delicate in sensitive or traumatized children, or in anyone who has suffered stress to the adrenals. In case of Kidney failure it is very important to follow a specific diet to avoid dialysis and reduce urea and creatinine level. 

KIDNEY DAMAGE DUE TO DIABETES OR BLOOD PRESSURE- HOW TO AVOID DIALYSIS USING HERBS AND NATURAL REMEDIES  

Uncontrolled diabetes or blood pressure is usually the major reason behind Kidney Failure. This is a condition called Diabetic Nephropathy. In this condition, the kidney is excreting more proteins, the Urea, Creatinine levels are high, the potassium levels are high and there is a risk of electrolyte imbalance. The toxins level is raised and therefore regular dialysis is required. Dialysis is nothing but filter the whole blood through machine.

There are many other reasons due to which the toxins accumulate and lodge themselves in the kidneys and urinary tract, particularly when the kidneys are not filtering the blood properly. Symptoms include lower back pain, sciatic pain, difficult or painful urination, urinary tract infections, swollen prostate or kidney stones.

One should follow proper diet to avoid further complications arising from the kidney disease. One should mainly lower the sodium, fluids and protein intake.

One should remember that Diabetes and Hypertension are the major cause of kidney disease. So, one should maintain normal glucose levels and normal blood pressure to maintain proper function of the kidneys.

Impaired Kidneys cannot easily remove salt, potassium and water, that’s why they should be consumed in limited quantities. It is not a threat; these are steps to eat the right amount of nutrients to remain healthy.

LOWER SODIUM INTAKE

Avoid intake of salt in your food. It can raise the blood pressure, risk of heart failure and pulmonary edema and so sodium intake should necessarily be lowered. Have a very low salt diet. Avoid processed foods or canned foods, pickles, cheese etc that are high in salt content. Also avoid potato chips, pizza and any kind of packaged food. It is always preferable to have homemade food.

LOWER POTASSIUM INTAKE

Some people with kidney disease need to lower their potassium intake. It is found naturally in many fruits and vegetables. In poor function of the kidneys, it fails to remove the excess potassium from the blood. A high level in potassium can cause muscle weakness and affect the Heart rhythm. Foods rich in potassium are salt substitutes, bananas and apricots. However salt substitutes are not advisable, because it will further aggravate the disease.

FOODS RICH IN POTASSIUM ARE

Wheat germ, Sunflower seed, Almond, Raisin, Parsley, Lettuce, Radish, Cabbage, Dandelion root, Bananas, Water melon, Citrus fruits, Mushrooms, Greens, Spinach, Cucumber, Dried figs, Apricots, Dates, Wheat bran, Soybean, Avocado, Garlic, Tomato, Peas, Beans, Celery root

Alfalfa seeds, raw (1 cup)- 33 g

Apple (1)- 138 g

Apricot, raw (1)- 35 g

Asparagus , cooked, boiled (4 spears)- 60 g

Banana (1)- 118 g

Beans, baked (1 cup)- 254 g

Cabbage, raw (1 cup)- 70 g

Celery (1 stalk )- 40 g

Cheese (1 tbsp)- 14.5 g

Cucumber, peeled, raw(1 cup)- 119 g

Dates (5)- 41.5 g

Dandelion, boiled (1 cup)- 105 g

Garlic, 1 clove- 3 g

Lettuce, 1 leaf- 10 g

Parsley , 10 sprigs- 10 g

Radish (1)- 4.5 g

Raisins (1 cup)- 145 g

Peas , boiled (1 cup)- 160 g

Spinach, raw (1 cup)- 30 g

Soy beans, cooked ( 1 cup)- 172 g

Tomatoes (1)- 123 g

Watermelon (1 cup)- 152 g

Wheat flour (1 cup)- 120 g

LOWER LIQUID INTAKE

Do not have water or fluid content more than 1.5 Liters per day. Replace it with vegetables that has high water content like snake gourd, radish, spinach etc. even they come under fluid intake. But they are nutritious. Instead of merely drinking water, this can be taken. Also one can have tender coconut water (if they are not diabetic) and even buttermilk. All this should come under one and half litre per day. Have warm water instead of plain water.

LIMIT PROTEIN INTAKE

Protein is very essential to sustain energy levels in the body. A healthy kidney separates protein from the wastes and excretes the wastes from the blood. While an impaired kidney also excretes the protein and causes protein loss. That’s why Doctors suggest limiting protein intake to avoid much pressure on the kidneys. Also complete elimination is not advisable. Hence limited protein intake can balance the functions of the kidneys. Choose high quality protein like chicken, lean meat, fish, eggs etc. have 160 to 190 Gms of protein per day. The quantity depends upon level of blood urea and creatinine. Usually 40-50 gm of protein intake is recommended per day.

Milk (half L)-18 g

Yogurt (1 cup)-7 g

Meat (200 g)-50 g

Beans baked (1 cup)-254 g

Egg (1)-8 g

Soya milk (200ml)-6 g

Fish (100 g )-21 g

Cheese (100 g )-25 g

Roast chicken (100 g )-25 g

Roast beef (100 g )-25 g

Cabbage cooked (1 cup)-150 g

Cabbage raw (1 cup)-70 g

Ripe tomatoes (1 cup)-180 g

LOWER CHOLESTEROL INTAKE

Intake of high fat substances or fried food items may increase the levels of cholesterol. Even if it is home-made it is not advisable to have high fat food. Increase in cholesterol level in blood can cause kidney damage or failure. Use vegetable oils like safflower oil, olive oil for cooking which are the safest and healthiest choices.

AVOID SMOKING

Smoking can complicate the disease further. It has been found that it causes heart attacks and sometimes even death of a person suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease.

LIMIT PHOSPHOROUS INTAKE

Avoid intake of dairy products such as cheese, butter, ice creams etc. Avoid beverages like cola, alcohol etc. avoid nuts, peas and beans. Foods that are high in phosphorous are milk, cheese, nuts and cola drinks. Too much of phosphorous will remove calcium from bones and affect the bones and may lead to osteoporosis.

DIABETIC NEPHROPATHY

Diabetes mellitus affects the structure and function of the Kidney in many ways. The term diabetic nephropathy encompasses all the lesions occurring in the kidneys of patients with diabetes mellitus. These lesions include glomerulo-sclerosis, arterionephro-sclerosis, chronic interstitial nephritis, papillary necrosis and various tubular lesions.

Diabetic nephropathy is associated with a variety of clinical syndromes including mild asymptomatic proteinuria, nephritic syndrome, progressive renal failure and hypertension. Glomerulo lesions are particularly common and account for the majority of the abnormal clinical findings related to the kidney.

The principal clinical manifestation of diabetic glomerular disease is proteinuria. Initially only small amounts of albumin are excreted, particularly following exercise (microalbuminuria). This amount of albumin excretion is undetectable by routine screening methods. Under ordinary circumstances, microalbuminuria develops within 10 to 15 years of the onset of hyperglycemia and usually progresses within 3 to 7 years to overt proteinuria and clinical diabetic nephropathy.

With good control of hyperglycemia and elevated blood pressure, the development of microalbuminuria can be prevented or reversed. Patients with non-insulin-dependant diabetes mellitus also may develop clinical nephropathy. Precise regulation of blood sugar (by meticulous attention to diet, exercise, and insulin dosage) may be effective in reducing the development of nephropathy. During the micro-albuminuric phase, tight metabolic control slows the rate of increase in albumin excretion, as does lowering the arterial blood pressure and dietary protein restriction. Once the nephropathy has reached the stage of overt proteinuria, aggressive management of hypertension will slow the rate of loss of renal function, but strict control of blood sugar does not seem to retard the rate of progression once overt nephropathy (proteinuria > 500mg/d) has emerged.

Patient with ESRF (End stage renal failure) due to diabetic nephropathy are not ideal candidates for long term dialysis because of concomitant multiple organ dysfunction secondary to arterio-vascular disease.

An early sign of kidney damage is when your kidneys leak small amounts of a protein called micro albumin into the urine.

With severe damage; the kidney excretes more amount of protein called proteinuria. More wastes build up in the blood. This damage gets worse until the kidneys fail.

PREVENTION OF KIDNEY DISEASE IN DIABETES AND BLOOD PRESSURE- HOW TO AVOID DIALYSIS 

 Keep your blood sugar and blood pressure under control. Also maintain normal cholesterol levels. Check it every 3 to 6 months.

 Exercise or have a brisk walk regularly. For diabetic patients, it is more advisable to walk in the evening around 45 minutes.

 Always have a healthy and balanced diet. Have low salt diet. Avoid eating outside, because the ones prepared outside, sometimes add soda to cook soon or it may be unhygienic and the oil used may not be suitable for you. So, always prefer home-made food.

 Have a low-salt, low-protein, low-fat and high fruit and vegetable diet.

 Have at least two to three cups of boiled or steamed vegetables per day.

 Eat fiber rich foods like whole grain bread and cereals. Eat frequent small meals.

 Avoid processed foods like sauces, pickles etc.

 Check the labels for added salt. Drink warm and filtered water.

 Avoid food made by using baking powder like cakes, biscuits etc.

 Avoid legumes, milk and dairy products, mainly cheese. Use skimmed milk in the place of whole cream milk. Limit the intake of fish and meat.

 Have your kidneys tested at least once in a year and if you are already suffering from Kidney failure, then the tests of urea, creatinine, electrolytes should be performed every week or 15 days.

 Avoid smoking and alcohol.

 Avoid junk foods and high fat intake, if you have diabetes and not suffering from kidney disease yet.

 Avoid suppression of natural urges- passing or urine or stool or sleep. 

 Maintain proper weight according to your age and height. low-fat diet and regular exercise also will lower your risk of heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease

 Avoid drugs such as NSAID’s (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) or even the drug to lower uric acid called Zyloric also causes Renal Failure. I have seen  many renal failure patients who used this drug to reduce uric acid and were suffering from Gout. There are certain herbs like Kaishore Guggul, Gorakhmundi, Navkarshik Churna which are very useful for gout. 

HOW TO AVOID DIALYSIS USING HERBS AND NATURAL REMEDIES 

There are certain ayurvedic herbs which are very effective in reducing urea, creatinine levels and help to avoid dialysis. The kidney failure responds very well to these natural remedies. 

The combination of herbs is called "The Revive kidneys package " and mentioned by Dr. Vikram Chauhan MD (Ayurveda ) at PLANET AYURVEDA 

HERBAL REMEDIES TO AVOID DIALYSIS AND HELPFUL IN RENAL FAILURE - BY Dr. VIKRAM CHAUHAN - MD ( Ayurveda ) 

Kidney Failure Alternative Treatment

Check www.PlanetAyurveda.com for more information.

There are several reasons for kidney failure. One of the most common causes are diabetes, chronic blood pressure, nephrotic syndrome, kidney stones, cysts, drugs like Allopurinol (Zyloric) and many, inflammatory kidney diseases. Kidneys are basically performing function of a sieve in our body. They filter the toxins away from the body especially the urea and creatinine. If the kidneys fail, the urea and creatinine levels increase and can be life threatening if not treated in time.

The modern treatment of kidney failure is to treat the underlying cause, which is usually diabetes or blood pressure. At present, it is not possible to cure the diabetes and blood pressure using modern medical techniques or methods. The kidneys are prevented from further damage be doing regular dialysis, which is nothing but a machine doing the function of kidneys for a while.

The most important way to tackle the problem of kidney failure is kidney transplant or use of some alternative methods which are actually useful. There may be many people around the world offering various solutions, but you should be cautious following everything together. Just give time and monitor the levels of urea and creatinine levels regularly. It is very important for a kidney failure patient to know his disease.

Here are some link which can be useful for a chronic kidney failure patient -

• What is Dialysis
• What is Hemodialysis
• Chronic Kidney Failure
• Diabetic Nephropathy
• Glomerulonephritis
• Nephrotic Syndrome
• Interstitial Cystitis
• Urinary Tract Infection
• Renal Calculi
• Kidney Transplant

Is there any Alternative Treatment for Kidney Failure?

This is a big question but yes, there are some Ayurvedic herbs which can be very useful alternative treatment for kidney failure. The herbs should be taken from a good source and should not contain any impure heavy metals or impurities which may further damage the kidneys.

Remember to monitor the kidneys by doing regular renal function tests and measuring urea and creatinine levels in blood. It is also important to keep records of electrolytes like sodium and potassium if undergoing any alternative treatment for kidney failure.

There are some Ayurvedic herbs offer good alternative to dialysis if used under the recommendations of an experienced ayurvedic practitioners. The herbs like Punarnava (puna - again, Nava - new), Phyllanthus Niruri, Kaasni which are all found in a classical ayurvedic formulation called Mutrakrichantak Churna. The mutrakrichantak churna is an effective combination of all these rare herbs to improve functions of kidney. When the creatinine level is below 3, then Mutrakrichantak churna alone is sufficient and when it is higher than 3 then it should be used along with Rencure Formula, Varunadi Vati, Punarnava Mandur.

These all are used in Ayurvedic medicine as alternative to dialysis and help in lowering down urea and creatinine levels. The results are evident within few days. All these can be read in details at the website www.planetayurveda.com/mutrakrichantak-churna/ If some patient wants to send the reports, he can send at herbalremedies123@yahoo.com

The combination given along with Mutrakrichantak Churna gives excellent results in chronic kidney failure due to any reason.

Ayurvedic treatment for kidney failure can be continued along with modern drugs or even while on dialysis as it is not having any side effects. The results can be seen initially within 15 days of treatment but the real differences can be observed after 1-2 months of treatment.

The treatment can be continued along with the ongoing modern medical treatments or dialysis without any contradiction.

How to Reduce Creatinine Levels in Blood

There are many reasons for increased creatinine and urea levels in the blood. Urea and creatinine are the endotoxins usually caused by reduced excretion of the protein metabolism end products via urine.

The BUN ratio - (The Blood Urea Nitrogen) The BUN ratio is the term used for the ratio of two serum laboratory values, the blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (Cr). The BUN ratio helps to diagnose if the cause is due to damage to kidney due to kidney disease (intrarenal diseases) or pre-renal or post-renal causes.

Increased urea and creatinine are mainly caused by renal failure or decreased kidney function. There is specific Ayurvedic treatment for kidney failure and to Avoid dialysis naturally. Kidneys work as filters in our body. Filtering the toxins out from our body and cleansnig the blood. If the kidneys are not working properly due to Diabetic nephropathy, Renal artery stenosis (genetic or due to chronic blood pressure) and other kidney diseases like renal cysts, malignancies, tumors, drugs and others.

Diet In Renal Failure – No Specific Diet Actually

In renal failure there is actually no specific diet as it has to be customized according to your requirements. There are some basic things which need to be understood to get the best results. The renal dietician or a doctor or a nutritionist should always be consulted for a proper renal diet as per your condition.

Water Intake - The water intake can be upto 6-8 glasses per day in case there is no accumulation of water in the body. Swelling in feet, face is the sign that shows there is water retention in the body and water is accumulating in the body and kidneys are not able to remove excess water from the body. So the water intake needs to be limited and under guidance of a doctor in this case. If there is no swelling in the body and the urine output is normal, then the water intake can be 6-8 glasses or even more in case of increased creatinine levels. It helps to reduce creatinine levels naturally.

Fluid Intake - Other fluids also contain water. So you don't really need to reduce the fluid intake if you are not on dialysis or the urine output is not decreased and normal. Infact in this situation the fluid intake should be more to clear out things. If on dialysis, the water intake and other fluid intake should be restricted an as per the dietician's advice.

Non-Veg Diet - Usually the proteins are not recommended in kidney failure. If the patient is on haemodialysis then slightly higher intake of proteins.

Animal Protein - meat, fish, cheese, eggs, milk, and Vegetable proteins - nuts, pulses (beans, lentils etc), tofu is recommended. The higher intake is about 100-120 gm per day and the low intake is about 40-50 gm per day.

Salt (Sodium) – Salty food contains a lot of salt. So no need to take extra salt. Salt usually causes water retention. If you drink water and you have already taken salt, the water is going to get logged in your body. So reduce the salt intake. The lower limit is about 2-3 grams, so this much is ok per day (including the salt in your food). If you already have water retention (signs- swollen feet, ascites, swollen abdomen, swollen face) then other lo salt options should be tried.

Potassium – Potassium is usually high in patients in severe renal failure and dialysis. The potassium intake actually can not be really restricted as almost all healthy foods contain potassium. It is mostly found in green vegetables, almost all the fruits, vegetables, Potatoes (especially fried or baked). So one can not practially stop eating everything. So I would recommend to take fruits and vegetables and proteins in moderation. Boiling the vegetables, potatoes also helps a lot in this situation.

Phosphate - Too much phosphate in the blood (hyperphosphataemia) usually becomes a significant problem in the later stages of renal failure (stages 4 and 5 CKD, usually less than 20% kidney function). The problem continues for most dialysis patients, as dialysis does not remove enough phosphate unless it is very frequent or intensive. A combination of diet and medicines are usually needed. Diet alone is hardly helpful. Phosphate binders are the drugs given to decrease phosphate absorbtion from the gut.

Packaged food, processed food – All packaged foods, fried items, processed food etc. should be stricktly avoided. All soft drinks, heavily cooked foods purchased from market, deepfried items, fried potatoes, alcohol should all be avoided.

How to lower creatinine level in blood using ayurvedic herbs and medicines

There are herbs described in Ayurvedic medicines, the traditional healthcare system of India for supporting the normal kidney functions. These herbs help to reduce the creatinine levels naturally and without causing any burden on kidneys and can be used along with all other modern procedures like dialysis or kidney medicines. Regular use of these ayurvedic medicines helps to reduce the creatinine levels and avoid dialysis.

There are herbs in Ayurved which are cleansing and help support the kidneys naturally. These are –

1. Mutrakrichantak Churna - 1 Teaspoonful twice daily warm with water and for best result Boil 1 Teaspoonful in 400ml water until it remains 50-60ml. Filter the preparation with a regular tea strainer and drink. You should use this once in morning 45min. after breakfast and similarly in evening 45min. after dinner. Prepare fresh every time as per this.
2. Rencure Formula - 2 Capsules, twice daily with warm water after meals.
3. Varunadi Vati - 2 Tablets, thrice daily with warm water after meals, contains the plant bark of Crataeva nurvala and others.
4. Punarnava Mandur - 2 Tablets, thrice daily with warm water after meals. (Helps to improve hemoglobin levels and reduce edema) - contains the herb Boerrhavia diffusa.
5. Chandanadi Vati - 2 Tablets, twice daily with warm water after meals.
6. Indian Echinacea (can be added if creatinine level is above 8)
7. Phyllanthus Niruri (Can be added if creatinine level is above 8 to 10).
8. Trin Panchmool Kwath (5 Grass roots powder).
9. Kaasni Leaves Powder (Chicory leaves powder).
10. Corn Silk – Makki ke baal.
11. Flowers of the flame of forest – Butea monosperma (Dhak-Palaash).
12. Detox Tea - For complete detoxification

(Many herbs from 5 to 10 are already there in the MUTRAKRICHANTAK CHURNA mentioned below in the Revive kidneys package)

The Revive Kidneys Package helps to reduce the creatinine levels remarkably and aids in avoiding dialysis naturally. There are many patients who benefited after using this combination. So I recommend this one in many of my patients as it is. Most of the kidney failure patients are suffering from Diabetes or Blood Pressure, having low hemoglobin. This combination is useful in all such conditions as well as ongoing dialysis or treatment.

All these items from 1 to 10 (or Mutrakrichantak Churna as it is) should be taken 1 teaspoonful each and put in 400 ml water. The water should be boiled until it is about 50 ml. Strain it and drink the water (50 ml) and leave the residue. If you can consume the residue it is still ok and if you can't even then it's ok.
