Protect the kidney and do these four points!
We ordinary people usually protect the kidney, what do we need to pay attention to? Wang Wenjian, deputy secretary of the Department of Internal Medicine of Guangdong people's Hospital and deputy director of the second District of Nephrology, mentioned several kidney protection methods on the official account of Guangdong Health online Wechat in 2021:
1. Avoid staying up late or sedentary
Staying up late or sitting for too long is not conducive to kidney blood reflux, so people with bad kidneys should pay special attention to avoid staying up late and sitting for a long time.
two。 Drink plenty of water according to the situation.
For people with no kidney problems, drinking more water is good for the kidneys and can promote the excretion of toxic substances; if the kidneys are damaged, drinking too much water may be a burden on the kidneys, or drink under the guidance of a doctor.
3. Eat less heavy-tasting food
Foods on a heavy diet are rich in acids, sodium and electrolytes, most of which are excreted by the kidneys. When there is something wrong with the kidney, it is not conducive to excretion, and these toxic substances will accumulate in the body, which is harmful to health.
4. Avoid indiscriminate use of drugs to hurt the kidney
All drugs excreted through the kidneys can hurt the kidneys. More common, such as amino nitrogen antibiotics, painkillers, as well as some proprietary Chinese medicine, have a certain degree of kidney damage. Patients must read the drug instructions carefully before taking the medicine. If there is any doubt about the use of drugs, please consult a kidney specialist to facilitate more rational and scientific use of drugs. five
