7 COMMON HABIT THAT DAMAGES THE KIDNEY.
In this health article today, I will talk about (behaviors) habit that
damage the kidneys. I have seen many people have kidney disease, which if you
ask a reasons few of them knows and others they do not know the causes of this disease.
In this article I prepared about kidney
damage habit (behaviors) I think many it will help them to identify the reasons
(underlying) causes of kidney damage and inability to(work) function properly.
Our kidneys play a critical role in our overall health. They
filter our blood, manufacture hormones, absorb minerals, excrete poisons, and
neutralize acids. Your kidneys, as one of the most vital organs in your body,
demand special attention.
Damage to or gradual decline of your
kidneys can go undiscovered for years because your kidneys can still function
at 20% of their capacity. As a result, kidney
disorders are known as "The Silent Diseases." That is why it
is critical to look for them before it is too late.
Here's a list of ten frequent habits
that place a lot of strain on your kidneys and can lead to major harm in the
long run.
1. NOT ENOUGH WATER CONSUMPTION.
The most crucial function of your
kidneys is to filter blood and eliminate toxins and waste. When you don't drink
enough plain water throughout the day, toxins and waste build up in your body
and can cause serious harm.
2. AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF SALT IN YOUR DIET.
To function properly, your body
requires sodium or salt. Most people, on the other hand, drink excessive
amounts of salt, which can elevate blood
pressure and put a strain on the kidneys. As a general guideline, no
more than 5 grams of salt should be consumed every day.
3. AN EXCESS OF ANIMAL PROTEIN.
The metabolic load on your kidneys is
increased when you consume too much protein, especially red meat. As a result,
eating extra protein causes your kidneys to work harder, which can contribute
to kidney damage or failure over time.
4. SLEEP DEPRIVATION.
We've all heard how vital getting a
good night's sleep is. Chronic sleep deprivation has been linked to a variety
of illnesses, including kidney disease. Allow your body to mend and restore
itself during the night by allowing it to repair damaged
kidney tissue.
5. COFFEE ADDICTION.
Caffeine, like salt, can elevate blood
pressure and put additional strain on your kidneys. Excessive coffee drinking
can harm your kidneys in the long run.
6. ABUSE OF PAINKILLERS.
There are far too many people who take
painkillers for minor aches and pains when there are numerous natural, safe
alternatives. Excessive use or abuse of painkillers can cause serious liver and
kidney damage.
7. CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL.
Although there's nothing wrong with
having a glass of wine or a beer now and then, most of us don't stop at one.
Alcohol is a legal toxin that puts our kidneys and liver under a lot of strain.
Too much alcohol also cause alcohol
poisoning.
