Uremia is a terrible disease for everyone. Patients can only survive on hemodialysis, pleural dialysis, or kidney transplantation.
Although uremia is not cancer, it is more terrible than cancer. Uremia is not caused for no reason. In addition to heredity, bad lifestyle habits also account for a large part.
These four foods can easily induce uremia, and it is recommended to eat less.
1. High phosphorus food
Phosphorus entering the body needs to be filtered out by the glomeruli. A high-phosphorus diet increases the burden on the kidneys, reduces the filtration function of the kidneys, and thus causes damage to the kidneys.
Therefore, we should eat less high-phosphorus foods, such as dried fruits, animal offal and aquatic products.
2. Carambola
Starfruit is a common fruit, but it contains neurotoxins that can cause certain damage to the body, especially the kidneys, which can easily cause glomerulonephritis.
3, all kinds of red meat
Beef and lamb are both high purine foods, and excessive intake can increase blood uric acid levels. Uric acid is mainly excreted in the kidneys, and an increase in uric acid levels increases the burden of renal excretion.
In addition, beef and mutton contain too much animal fat, which is not easy to digest, which will promote renal arteriosclerosis, make the kidneys atrophy and degenerate, and then induce arteriosclerotic nephropathy.
4. Heavy taste food
Although salt is an essential condiment, excessive salt intake increases sodium levels in the body, increases the burden on the kidneys, leads to water and sodium retention, and induces uremia.
Therefore, in order to reduce salt intake, adults should consume no more than 6 grams of salt per day, eat less pickled foods such as salted fish, pickles and sausages, and put less condiments such as soy sauce or chicken essence when cooking food.
In addition to controlling the diet, we should also do the following four things to prevent it
1. Check creatinine regularly
Creatinine is a metabolite of muscle. About 20 muscles can metabolize 1 mg of creatinine, which is excreted through the kidneys.
When kidney disease occurs, creatinine cannot be excreted in time and can only be stored in the kidneys. Therefore, creatinine is an important indicator of kidney disease.
Creatinine is 133 to 177 mmol per liter, indicating the compensatory period of renal insufficiency; creatinine is 177 to 442, indicating a decompensated period of renal insufficiency; creatinine 442 to 707 indicates renal failure staging; creatinine above 707 indicates the stage of uremia.
2. Make sure you get enough sleep
People who stay up late or don't get enough sleep are prone to lower glomerular filtration rates. At the same time, it also reduces immunity, relapses kidney disease, and increases the risk of uremia.
Therefore, in order to get enough sleep, you must go to bed before 23:00 and sleep at least 7 to 8 hours a day.
3. Exercise more
Sitting for a long time will compress the bladder meridians of the thighs and buttocks, which can easily cause poor blood flow to the bladder meridians, resulting in bladder dysfunction.
The kidneys are closely related to the bladder, and meditation can affect kidney function. Therefore, we should reduce sedentary time and maintain moderate exercise so that the kidneys get enough blood nutrition.
4. Control the number of couples living
If the husband and wife live too frequently, it will damage the yang qi, lead to various organ dysfunction, resulting in male kidney deficiency and insufficient kidney water in women.
Therefore, it is necessary to control the amount of married life and not to indulge in desires.
Usually develop the habit of actively drinking water, drink more water, and urinate more to expel metabolic waste in the body and reduce the burden on the kidneys. Chinese medicine believes that black can enter the kidney meridians. You may wish to eat more black beans, black sesame seeds, mulberries, etc. to supplement kidney essence.
Don't have a bad habit of holding back urine. Prolonged urination can lead to urinary tract infections such as pyelonephritis or urethritis. Almost all drugs are excreted in the kidneys. If abused, they can damage the kidneys and even induce uremia.
