Due to various physiological, psychological, and social reasons, people intentionally or unintentionally equate old age with frailty, making many elderly people feel empty. In order to obtain psychological comfort, many people buy kidney tonifying drugs to take.
Kidney deficiency can manifest as kidney related functional decline, such as symptoms such as low sexual function, easy fracture, anemia, inability to hold urine, and weak waist and legs. In fact, a considerable portion of these kidney deficiency symptoms are caused by psychological problems. If patients with anxiety and depression experience poor sleep and lack appetite, it may lead to kidney deficiency symptoms.
Protecting kidney qi mainly involves moderate exercise and sufficient sleep. Moderate exercise can improve physical fitness, activate thinking, strengthen muscles and bones, promote the digestion and absorption of nutrients, and thus consolidate kidney qi. In addition, sufficient sleep is also an important guarantee for restoring vitality and energy. No matter how much trouble you have at home, you should rest on time when you go to bed. In addition, often eat kidney tonifying foods such as pork loin, oysters, walnuts, etc. Pork waist and oysters contain a large amount of zinc, which is very beneficial for tonifying the kidneys; Walnuts also have the function of moistening the lungs. If eaten raw or soaked with 50g walnut kernel and 500ml Baijiu for one month, a small amount of it can be drunk every night, which can also achieve the effect of tonifying the kidney. Furthermore, patients with kidney deficiency should pay attention to psychological stress reduction and maintain a happy state of mind and body.
