Then, what will happen if people with poor kidney qi sleep?
1, sweaty feet
When the convergence function of the kidney decreases, the soles of the feet will sweat abnormally after falling asleep at night, which is a manifestation of kidney qi deficiency. At this time, the kidneys should be maintained. If you sweat during the day, this is a normal metabolic pattern. Be alert when you have night sweats, and go to the hospital for renal function examination in time.
2, sleep instability
People with uncomfortable kidneys often sleep uneasily. Due to the disorder of metabolism in the kidney, a large number of toxins cannot be eliminated, which affects people's sleep quality. The phenomenon of frequent insomnia and dreaminess at night is the manifestation of deficiency of kidney-qi, the decline of renal function and the inability of normal metabolism.
Step 3 get up many times at night
Kidney is the most important secretory organ in the body, which can secrete toxins and garbage into urine and excrete them. If the kidney is wrong, you will get up frequently. Because of the deficiency of kidney qi and weakness of kidney qi, it will cause disorder of internal channels of the kidney and make people urinate frequently at night. If you get up frequently at night, you need to protect your kidneys.
4. Lumbar pain
Pain around the waist is the main manifestation of kidney qi deficiency, and the kidneys are distributed on both sides of the waist. Lying in bed after a busy day can relieve discomfort. When the kidney is uncomfortable, you may have a backache at night, and you can't sleep over and over again.
5, systemic edema: When we sleep all night, we often wake up and find systemic edema.
6, the urine color is wrong and there is foam.
This situation is more serious when I go to urinate at night and find that the urine is obviously yellow and there are some bubbles. Because urine produces a lot of foam, it means proteinuria, and yellow color proves impaired renal function, because urine is the most direct detection method of renal function.
So how should we protect our kidneys? There are mainly the following points.
1, protect your feet
Chinese medicine believes that the kidney meridian starts from the soles of the feet, which are vulnerable to cold, so we should pay attention to keeping the feet warm. Every night before going to bed, you can soak your feet with hot water and massage Yongquan point on the soles of your feet, which can achieve the effect of nourishing kidney and protecting essence. Drink plenty of water, when water is scarce, it will cause turbid toxin to stay and increase the burden on the kidneys.
2, can't hold back urine
When the urine stored in the bladder is full, it will stimulate the nerves and produce micturition reflex. If there is urine, it should be excreted in time, and it must not be held back, so as not to make the urine turbid and damage the kidneys. Poor defecation will make people upset and irritable, chest pain and shortness of breath, and at the same time damage the kidneys, causing backache and nausea and vomiting. Eat more green leafy vegetables and fruits to keep the stool unobstructed.
3. Don't sit for a long time. Sitting for a long time will oppress the bladder meridian, causing the bladder meridian to run poorly, while the kidney meridian and the bladder meridian are both inconsistent, so it will also cause abnormal renal function. Usually, you should avoid sitting in one position for a long time, and do some stretching, turning your head and turning around.
4, so as not to be scared. Chinese medicine believes that "fear" will hurt the kidney. When people encounter fear, they often have weakness in their lower limbs and even incontinence, which is a manifestation of fear of hurting their kidneys. Some people like to watch horror movies, but they are too scared to turn off the lights and sleep after watching them. This will make the kidney essence dark for a long time.
In fact, kidney is not good can also be nourished by food. As long as we develop good eating habits, our kidneys will become healthy.
1, drink plenty of water: the kidney is called the "cleaner" of the human body, and it cleans all the time. When the kidneys metabolize body waste, they need enough water to participate. Therefore, in daily life, drinking more water contributes to normal metabolism.
2, eat warm tonic: you can eat some warm tonic food to regulate the kidneys, pigeons, mutton and oxtail soup. , are all good choices. Especially in autumn and winter, eating more warm food can play a good role in regulating the kidneys.
3, less salty: too salty food will make kidney qi more abundant, if kidney qi is too abundant, it will cause great harm to the heart, leading to weak heart strength and great impact on human health. Therefore, male friends should eat less salty food.
4, eat yam: yam is a common food in our lives, yam has the effect of tonifying kidney and keeping in good health. Therefore, patients with poor kidneys may wish to eat more yam in peacetime to nourish their kidneys.
5. Eat more black: eat more black food and eat less irritating food and sweets. According to Chinese medicine, black food can tonify the kidney, so you can eat more black food in your daily life, such as laver, black sesame, black fungus and black rice.
In addition to paying attention to diet, you can't exercise less at ordinary times. Introduce several kinds of exercises that are very helpful to the kidneys.
