ABSTRACT:
Compositions comprising a plurality of yeast cells, wherein said plurality of yeast cells are characterized by their ability to treat nephrotic syndrome (e.g., lower urinary protein and increase serum protein) in a subject as a result of having been cultured in the presence of an alternating electric field having a specific frequency and a specific field strength. Also included are methods of making and using such compositions.
