Kidney deficiency refers to kidney deficiency, which can generally be divided into kidney yin deficiency, kidney yang deficiency, and kidney yin yang deficiency. There are many factors that can cause kidney deficiency, but the common causes are the following bad habits:
Poor diet
Eating seafood, drinking beer, and eating a large amount of high-protein diets can generate excessive metabolic wastes such as uric acid and urea nitrogen, which increases the burden of kidney excretion. In addition, if you have a salty diet, it can lead to increased blood pressure and inability to maintain normal blood flow in the kidneys, leading to kidney disease. If you do not drink water for a long time, your urine volume will decrease, and the concentration of waste and toxins carried in your urine will increase, which can easily lead to kidney stones and hydronephrosis. Therefore, it is necessary to have a light diet and drink more water.
To be afraid of the cold
Many people like to expose their small waist all year round, not paying attention to keeping their waist warm at all, and some people try to drink iced drinks and cold drinks during the summer, all of which can cause their kidneys to catch cold. Excessive cold environmental stimulation can affect the blood circulation of the kidneys. If circulation is poor, it can easily expand, and some blood vessels can easily rupture, resulting in blood in the urine. "There can also be problems with blood supply in the glomerulus, which can atrophy or calcification, and protein cannot be metabolized, which is often referred to as nephritis where proteinuria and hematuria occur.".
Staying up late for a long time
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, staying up late can damage the nerves. Therefore, some netizens or computer enthusiasts like to stay up late for a long time, have high work pressure, and drink strong tea and coffee, which can easily lead to kidney problems. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to rest. If there are some symptoms such as eye and face edema, physical fatigue, long-term anemia, low back pain, etc., seek medical attention and examination as soon as possible.
Frequent urination
Urine in the bladder can reproduce bacteria over time, which can retrograde through the ureter to the kidneys, leading to urinary tract infections and pyelonephritis. This type of infection, once repeated, can cause chronic infection and is not easily cured.
Five good foods for tonifying the kidney:
Scallion: Modern medical research shows that scallion is rich in nutrients. It contains various plant hormones and vitamins that can ensure the normal secretion of hormones in the human body, thereby playing a role in strengthening yang and nourishing yin.
Aquatic Products: Sea cucumber, abalone, light vegetables, and loach are all effective strong and refined foods. Fish, shrimp, shellfish, and seaweed are rich in zinc, which is an important substance in the formation of testosterone and an indispensable element in the secretion of lubrication by female reproductive organs. Therefore, aquatic products have the effect of increasing sexual desire.
Egg: High protein food, similar to human protein composition, so the human body absorption rate of egg protein is as high as 99.7% (milk is only 85%). Experts point out that eggs are the best nutritional additive to enhance human sexual function.
Silkworm pupa: Rich in nutrients, it can nourish the liver and kidney, benefit essence and qi, strengthen yang, treat impotence, and stabilize astringency and stop sperm. Middle aged and elderly people with liver and kidney deficiency, deficiency of vital energy, impotence, and ejaculation can be consumed. Chinese chives: Chinese chives have a prominent effect on warming and tonifying the liver and kidney, assisting yang and consolidating essence, so they are known as "yang herbs" in the pharmacopoeia.
