What behaviors in life can hurt the kidney?
Kidney is so important to our health that we must take good care of it. To raise a good kidney, we must first understand what will hurt the kidney. ◆ Exogenous six evils are easy to hurt the kidney. Our life is really not easy. We live in the natural environment and often suffer from wind and rain, sun and rain, so-called wind, frost, rain and snow, cold and heat. With so many natural conditions acting on our bodies, the burden of life is really heavy. If one day you accidentally catch a cold, you may catch a cold; If you are exposed to the sun for a long time, you may get heatstroke; When the climate is dry, the skin will become rough; If you are frozen for a long time, your hands and feet may get frostbite. There are many external factors that affect our health. Our ancestors were very clever. It is divided into six aspects: wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness and fire, which are collectively called "six evils". Six lewdness is mostly related to seasonal climate and living environment. For example, windy in spring, hot in summer, dry in autumn, cold in winter and humid living environment are prone to exogenous dampness. Six evils can cause diseases alone, or two or three pathogens can invade the human body at the same time, such as wind-cold cold, which is caused by the simultaneous invasion of common cold and cold pathogens. How to avoid kidney injury caused by six evils? The method is simple and not simple, mainly from the details of daily life. If you often take part in physical exercise, you should pay attention to changing clothes, eating reasonably, not being picky about food and living regularly when the seasons change and the climate changes drastically. Who can't do this? I tell you, don't take these things seriously. You can totally keep six prostitutes from coming near you. I can't guarantee that you are a saint, at least a healthy person! ◆ "I am afraid to pee my pants" and "seven emotions" internal injuries. Everyone has heard the saying, "I peed my pants with fear." What does fear have to do with wetting your pants? The reason is very simple, that is, the kidney has the function of vaporizing water and controlling the switch of the bladder. Once frightened, the renal function will be abnormal. If you can't control the switch of the bladder normally, you will naturally pee your pants. People are not vegetation, who can be ruthless? People are not indifferent to anyone, anything or anything in the process of knowing things around them or contacting others, but always show some corresponding emotions, such as happiness or sadness, love or disgust, happiness or sadness, excitement or fear. Seven emotions or moods, such as joy, anger, worry, thinking, sadness, fear and shock, are called "seven emotions". Within the normal range, the changes of seven emotions have little impact on health and will not cause any pathological changes. Sometimes a person is happy, sometimes angry, sometimes sad, sometimes sad, like natural climate change, sometimes it rains, sometimes it is sunny, which is normal. However, excessive emotions caused by internal and external stimuli will lead to many diseases. Generally speaking, anger hurts the liver, likes sadness, thinks about spleen, grieves the lungs and fears kidney. The disorder of seven emotions can not only directly affect the function of the kidney, but also affect other viscera first, and then involve the kidney, leading to emotional disorder and kidney deficiency syndrome. Therefore, from a health point of view, we should try our best to keep our mood comfortable and stable, and remember that our emotions are out of control. ◆ Improper diet hurts the spleen, stomach and kidney. From birth, the internal organs begin to consume energy. Therefore, we should constantly supplement nutrition for ourselves and provide necessary nutrients for our lives, that is, supplement the yin and yang qi and blood of the human body and maintain the balance of life. And where does nutrition come from? Nutrition comes from daily diet. A balanced and reasonable diet can not only maintain the normal physiological function of human body, improve the body's disease resistance, but also treat some diseases, which is what we often call "homology of medicine and food". But if you don't eat properly, it will often lead to diseases. Spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow, the source of qi and blood biochemistry, and food is digested by spleen and stomach. Therefore, improper diet mainly damages the spleen and stomach, leading to abnormal rise and fall of the spleen and stomach, which in turn leads to insufficient blood and biochemistry, spleen and kidney deficiency, which in turn leads to various diseases. Unhealthy diet mainly includes overeating, overeating and catching cold, overeating, fatty and sweet, or partial eclipse. Excessive taste is also a major cause of kidney deficiency. Salted into the kidney meridian, eaten in moderation can tonify the kidney and strengthen the bones. However, if the diet is salty, or if you eat some snacks with high salt content, such as potato chips, it will lead to an increase in blood pressure, and the blood in the kidneys cannot maintain normal flow, which will induce kidney deficiency. Therefore, Su Wen's "Qian Gu's Naivety" puts forward a health-preserving method of "controlling diet" to maintain the source of spleen and stomach, including saving diet, avoiding partial eclipse and adapting to cold and warm conditions. In Su Wen's theory on the method of storing qi, it is emphasized that the diet should be fully compatible, and it is pointed out that "five grains are the supplement, five fruits are the help, five animals are the benefit, five dishes are the filling, and the smell is the essence." Only under the constant nourishment of the spleen and stomach can the innate qi always remain full and maintain the body's ability to resist diseases and pathogens. The word "labor" was used more twenty or thirty years ago and is still used in some rural areas. People refer to adult men and women who can engage in manual labor as labor force, referred to as labor force for short. Men are called male laborers and women are called female laborers. There is no essential difference between "labor" in traditional Chinese medicine and "labor" in life, but it has become a verb, meaning to engage in manual labor. Engaged in normal physical labor is the need of life, and it can also exercise well. However, it is a pity that people have been overworked for a long time and have not had proper rest. "Labor leads to gas consumption", and excessive physical labor often leads to excessive physical consumption, which damages kidney qi and is very unfavorable to health. Kidney deficiency is very common in some young people. Why? It is precisely because people of this age have great pressure and workload, and overwork leads to a large consumption of essence in the body, which cannot be replenished in time. In addition, there may be excessive housing labor, and the incidence of kidney deficiency is naturally higher. As mentioned above, kidney deficiency in this case mostly belongs to kidney yin deficiency. ◆ Overwork is not desirable. Overwork mainly refers to excessive use of the brain. Such as thinking, planning and memory. If you don't pay attention to the combination of work and rest, you will consume sad blood, damage your mind, affect the function of soothing the liver and transporting the spleen over time, and have symptoms such as palpitation, forgetfulness, insomnia, dreaminess, dizziness, impatience and irritability, and loss of appetite. ◆ Overwork of housework should be prevented. Excessive housework has two meanings. One is that people's lust is excessive, and the virtual fire moves and damages the true yin. Although there is no sexual intercourse, it can also lead to kidney deficiency. For example, Zhu Danxi said in "Danxi Heart Method": "Moving is fire moving, and moving is fine. The fire will suddenly rise. Although they don't meet, they will also be undercurrent. " Chinese medicine calls desire "mutual fire", which consumes the most yuan and essence. Therefore, we often see from the medical records of the ancients that when doctors treat diseases, especially chronic diseases such as fatigue and thirst, they often require patients to be separated from their husbands and wives, and even concentrate a group of patients to live in forests or temples, so that these patients can be isolated from the world and not be tempted by urban life, thus reducing patients' desires and enabling them to lead a totally clean life. Second, it refers to excessive indulgence, ignorance, exceeding normal physiological limits, consuming essence and hurting qi, leading to kidney deficiency. ◆ Excessive comfort also hurts the kidneys. Excessive comfort can also lead to kidney deficiency. This is because excessive comfort, no labor and no exercise will dull the spleen and stomach, weaken the function of zang-fu organs, lead to poor qi and blood circulation and dysfunction of kidney gasification. Therefore, the late Professor Zhao Shaoqin, a famous Chinese medicine expert, once put forward a new viewpoint that "chronic kidney disease should be active rather than static". He believes that bed rest of patients with chronic kidney disease is not conducive to the repair of kidneys, and may make kidneys tend to shrink; Insisting on moderate exercise is beneficial to the recovery of renal function, promoting the repair of damaged renal tissue and preventing renal atrophy. Otherwise, bed rest will inevitably lead to blood stasis day by day. How can you be ill? Therefore, whether it is overwork or excessive comfort, it is not conducive to kidney maintenance. ◆ There are many hidden dangers of eating tonics indiscriminately. There are many people who adjust themselves in life, especially those with poor sexual function. They often decide to use drugs or health products for tonifying kidney and strengthening yang without knowing the types of kidney deficiency. These will unconsciously bury hidden dangers to the body. There are many people who don't need kidney tonics at all. Fatigue and age are not absolute criteria for defining kidney-tonifying. People who don't need to tonify the kidney take tonics, which will increase the burden of detoxification for organs. There is a view that "people need to tonify the kidney in middle age", which is absurd. "It's a three-point poison". Kidney-tonifying drugs are more harmful to people with poor spleen and stomach, but they have side effects. In addition, regardless of "yin deficiency" or "yang deficiency", it is not appropriate to blindly tonify the kidney. Kidney deficiency can be divided into "kidney yin deficiency" and "kidney yang deficiency". "Yin deficiency" is characterized by insufficient nutrition and hyperactivity, and insufficient Yin Qi leads to excessive Yang Qi. Traditional Chinese medicine has always emphasized the balance between yin and yang. If you want to replenish yin, or vice versa, it will seriously destroy the balance of the human body and do more harm to the kidneys. Also, sexual health problems cannot be simply attributed to "kidney deficiency" and "tonifying kidney and strengthening yang". Some unscrupulous traders take advantage of people's misunderstanding, unilaterally exaggerate the relationship between kidney deficiency and sexual function, or add drugs similar to sex drugs to kidney-tonifying drugs, which is very harmful to the body. Therefore, daily tonifying kidney should be carried out under the guidance of people with professional knowledge, and it must not be supplemented indiscriminately. ◆ Untreated and improper treatment will also hurt the kidney. In the course of disease treatment, improper medication will damage healthy qi, lead to imbalance of qi and blood yin and yang or deficiency of kidney qi, thus leading to syndrome changes or aggravating kidney damage. Some Chinese and western medicines, such as Radix Stephaniae Tetrandrae, Caulis Akebiae, Trichosanthis Radix, Cinnabaris, etc. , and aminoglycosides, cephalosporins, analgesics, contrast agents, etc. In western medicine, all of them have certain nephrotoxicity. For those patients with kidney-qi deficiency or kidney disease, it will directly damage kidney-qi, lead to kidney disease or aggravate kidney disease. In addition, there are some doctors who lack the sense of responsibility, take some Chinese herbal medicines in large quantities or for a long time, or misuse some drugs, such as Cao Kun, Magnolia Officinalis, Asarum, Stephania Tetrandra, Akebia Akebia, Tripterygium Wilfordii and so on. It is also an important cause of common renal damage in clinic. ◆ Trauma is also a common cause of kidney deficiency. Common injuries such as sprains, falls and knife injuries are inevitable in life, ranging from skin injuries to internal organs. They have one thing in common, that is, they all damage veins, leading to extravasation and congestion of blood. Congestion is the pathological product of visceral function and an important pathogenic factor for the occurrence and development of nephropathy. In addition, trauma can also cause emotional abnormalities, such as excessive panic. , which will cause qi disorder, kidney qi damage, resulting in a series of kidney deficiency, kidney fatigue syndrome, such as impotence. Therefore, you should try to avoid the trauma in your life. Once you are injured, you should seek medical treatment in time, and you must not take it lightly.
