4. What are the habits of hurting the kidney?
1. Excessive use of Chinese herbal medicines that damage the kidneys: In recent years, it has been found that taking some Chinese herbal medicines (including Chinese patent medicines) can cause renal function damage. Chinese herbal medicines that can "damage the kidney" include Tripterygium Wilfordii, Akebia Akebia, Petunia, Xanthium sibiricum, Papaver Shell, Radix Aconiti Kusnezoffii, Junzi, Aristolochia, Ji Fang, etc. Tripterygium wilfordii has the greatest damage to the kidney, followed by Akebia manshuriensis and Akebia manshuriensis, which contains aristolochic acid, a nephrotoxic substance.
Second, abuse of analgesic western medicine: take some anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs for a long time or in large doses, such as painkillers, indomethacin, paracetamol, aspirin, etc. It is easy to cause kidney damage. Kidney damage can be manifested as fatigue, dry mouth, loss of appetite, frequent urination, urgency, dysuria, even hematuria and aseptic pyuria, accompanied by joint pain and other symptoms. Some will directly cause nephrotic syndrome such as acute nephritis or glomerular necrosis, and in severe cases will lead to renal failure and death.
Third, frequent urination: Some people urinate for a long time because of busy work. Urine staying in the bladder for too long is easy to breed bacteria, which will retrograde to the kidney through the ureter, leading to urinary tract infection and pyelonephritis. Once this kind of infection occurs repeatedly, it can cause chronic infection and is not easy to cure. Patients will not only have symptoms such as backache, frequent urination and urgency, but also may develop into acute uremia. Fourth, drink too little water: if you don't drink water for a long time, the urine volume will decrease and the concentration of waste and toxins carried in the urine will increase. Kidney calculi and hydronephrosis, which are common in clinic, are closely related to not drinking water for a long time. Drinking plenty of water can dilute urine, protect kidneys and help to fully discharge waste and toxins.
5. Overeating: Modern people have more opportunities to eat and often eat too much "delicious". The food they eat will eventually produce waste-uric acid and urea nitrogen. Most of these wastes are excreted through the kidneys, and overeating will undoubtedly increase the burden on the kidneys.
6. Excessive drinking: Excessive intake of soft drinks and sports drinks will indirectly damage the kidneys. The pH value in the human body is 7.2. This kind of beverage is generally strongly acidic, and the pH value in the body changes obviously after drinking. The kidney is the main organ that regulates the pH value of human body. Excessive intake of soft drinks and sports drinks for a long time will burden the kidneys and increase the probability of kidney damage.
Seven, the diet is too salty: the diet is too salty, especially some snacks have too high salt content. Such as eating potato chips, instant noodles and so on. It will make people unconsciously absorb too much salt, leading to an increase in blood pressure, and the normal flow of renal blood cannot be maintained, thus inducing nephropathy.
Eight, drink strong tea after drinking: Some people think that drinking strong tea after drinking can relieve alcohol. In fact, this is not only ineffective, but also hurts the kidney. Theophylline in tea can quickly affect the kidneys and play a diuretic role. At this time, alcohol will be discharged from the kidney before it can be decomposed again, and a large amount of alcohol will stimulate the kidney, thus damaging renal function.
9. Eat bread that is too soft: There is a food additive potassium bromate in bread and cake, which can give gluten strength and elasticity necessary for baking food. It tastes soft, but excessive consumption will damage people's central nervous system, blood and kidneys. The food additive potassium bromate has been listed as a carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer.
