Adu Asare warns against unproven kidney remedies after near-fatal experience [Video]
Kojo Adu Asare cautioned patients against relying on unverified herbal remedies for kidney-related illnesses. He warned that such practices could worsen health conditions.
Adu Asare recounted his difficult experience living with end-stage renal disease on Asempa FM's Ekosiisen. He revealed that he once survived a frightening health emergency during treatment. About three years ago, he suffered a severe drop in blood pressure after a dialysis session and collapsed at home. He said, "I fractured my hip. My BP dropped and that was it. I went off. My house help was the one who saved me." The incident left him with a hip fracture and forced him to rely on a full-time driver.
He urged patients to seek proper medical attention rather than depending on unproven treatments. He advised, "Once it gets to Stage Four, you are at end-stage. There is no way to reverse it. You should seek proper medical care instead of relying on concoctions." Despite the challenges, Mr. Adu Asare said he continues to stay active and maintain a positive outlook on life.
