People should eat and drink normally when they are alive. But how much you eat and how much you drink is not determined by your mouth, but by the functional state of your organs. The kidney is an important excretory organ of the human body, its functional state determines the ability to excrete metabolites in your body, if the kidney is not functional enough, the waste in your diet will not be completely excreted and accumulate in the body. Really want to preserve the kidney, not in what to eat more, but in what to eat less, what not to eat! There are many patients who are sick, they like to ask their doctors the phrase: “Doctor, in my case, what is good to eat?” But for kidney disease patients, many times, want to protect the kidneys, really does not lie in what to eat more good, but in what to pay attention to eat less! What not to eat! How to try to reduce the burden on the kidneys! We live, we need to eat, we need to drink, then, the body needs to metabolize, these wastes are who to deal with it? It’s our kidneys! We all know that the main function of the kidneys is urinary function, to put it more bluntly, is to urinate! However, this is not an easy task and requires a lot of work! Every day, up to 180,000ml of fluid flows through the kidneys, and it works tirelessly for us, taking the unwanted, excess and toxic substances in the body and forming urine, which is eventually excreted. The kidneys work so hard, the biggest reward and comfort we can give them is not to add a lot of burden to them for no reason. Every year, there are countless people who suffer from kidney failure because of indiscriminate eating and eating more things that they shouldn’t! One, do not take drugs indiscriminately Medicine can cure diseases, but also can cause diseases! Drugs have side effects, and the kidneys bear the brunt of them because most drugs are eventually excreted through the kidneys! Some clinicians often complain: “Some patients’ conditions can clearly be treated without medication, and regular review is fine. But when they are told not to take medication, they don’t listen! Go find a bunch of drugs to eat by themselves. I can’t help it if they eat up their kidneys and come back to me.” In fact, if patients were to understand this, they would not be like this! Three common types of drugs that cause kidney damage: 1, antipyretic and analgesic drugs often eat antipyretic, painkillers, can cause renal tubular necrosis, interstitial nephritis! This is the first major category! 2, antibiotics This is the second major category, the abuse of antibiotics in our country has been quite serious! Directly nephrotoxic are gentamicin, vancomycin, etc. Even our commonly used cephalosporins, penicillins, improper use, in some sensitive patients, can also cause kidney damage. 3, Chinese medicine The third major category is Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine is the treasure of our country, but some Chinese medicine ingredients, if the dosage is large, used for a long time, or some patients themselves have susceptibility, can also occur when nephrotoxicity. Listed above, are the top ranked drugs. Others, like the stomach drugs that have been popularized twice on our kidney line, proton pump inhibitors such as various **prazole, and antiviral drugs, etc. For patients with existing kidney disease, drug-related kidney injury is more susceptible than the general population, that is, the existing kidney disease itself, the possibility of drug toxic reactions is greater. The first rule of kidney protection: the drugs you can not take, do not! Not sure of the drug, be sure to consult a professional nephrologist! Second, do not eat and drink Now living conditions are good, heavy taste! Eat and drink! How much burden is added to our kidneys? Control diet, for every healthy person, is also supposed to. Over the past few decades, how many chronic diseases have been caused by the unhealthy eating habits of Chinese people? A diet high in salt is very bad for kidney health. Epidemiological studies also show that areas with high salt levels tend to have a high incidence of kidney disease. Coupled with high protein, high sugar, high fat and many other uncontrolled, so that our kidney metabolism is overwhelmed! In addition, eating and drinking indiscriminately leads to obesity, which can not only directly lead to obesity-related kidney disease! Can also lead to metabolic syndrome, blood sugar blood pressure uric acid overload, and indirectly lead to kidney disease! For modern people, the face of the rich diet, or the need for moderation! Limit diet, eat less high salt, high protein, high sugar, high fat food, more exercise, which is healthier than taking any supplements health products! The second rule of kidney protection: for people who like high salt, high protein, high sugar, high fat and other unhealthy eating habits, a little less hogwash is to protect the kidneys! The kidney has never been a delicate organ, it is very much for our sake, never easy to voice! But, such calmness is sometimes scary! It does not like to say anything when it is injured, and you will not have any uncomfortable symptoms. With the current medical technology, once the kidney formed a large area of fibrosis and scarring before thinking to pay attention and save, the doctor can not help, therefore, the best way, is to carry out early prevention! Do not let the kidneys suffer in silence, reduce its burden! To love and cherish the kidneys, we must have a correct and reliable concept of the disease, which is especially important for each of us with kidney disease!
