2. Hold urine in the morning
Garbage and toxins in the body will accumulate in the urine and urine in the morning, and if they are not excreted in time, it will cause toxins to remain in the body, thereby increasing the burden of liver detoxification and causing liver damage.

3. Stool too hard
If you wake up in the morning and relieve stool, it may increase abdominal pressure and blood pressure, especially for people who have arteriolar sclerosis in their brain, and a little force will cause arterioles to rupture and bleed. If there is dry stool and unsmooth bowel movements, you should not exert excessive force, you should drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits rich in crude fiber, or use drugs reasonably under the guidance of a doctor.
4. I didn't eat breakfast correctly

In fact, waking up in the morning without breakfast can greatly affect liver health. If you don't eat breakfast, the liver can't secrete bile properly.
In addition, it is not suitable to eat too greasy in the morning, such as fritters oil cakes and other high-fat and high-calorie foods, eating for a long time will make atherosclerosis worse and worse.
5. Drink strong tea in the morning

6. Smoke in the morning
Many male friends smoke a cigarette after waking up. If such bad habits are maintained for a long time, it will lead to lung damage, affect liver health, and induce liver disease.
