Kidney disease is known as the 'silent killer', even if it is injured, you may not feel it at all. You often see in the news that someone goes to see a doctor due to decreased appetite, anemia, or fatigue, only to find out that they are in the late stage of uremia!
In fact, one out of every 10 people in China suffers from kidney disease! According to a newly published study, the prevalence of chronic kidney disease in adults in China is as high as 10.8%. That is to say, every 10 adults around us suffer from varying degrees of chronic kidney disease.
Which of these 7 bad habits of kidney injury have you hit?
Bad habit one: drinking too many drinks
Excessive intake of soft drinks and sports drinks can indirectly damage the kidneys.
The pH in the human body is 7.35, and these beverages are generally highly acidic, which increases the burden of kidney acid excretion after consumption.
Bad habit two: often holding urine
Urine in the bladder for too long can easily breed bacteria, which can retrograde through the ureter to the kidneys, leading to urinary tract infections and nephritis.
Bad habit three: overeating and overeating
Modern people have more opportunities to dine together, often overeating, and ultimately producing waste such as uric acid and urea nitrogen.
Bad habit four: drinking too little water
If you don't drink water for a long time, your urine output will decrease, and the concentration of waste and toxins carried in your urine will increase.
Bad Habit 5: Eating Too Soft Bread
There is a food additive potassium bromate in bread and pastries, which can give the necessary gluten strength, elasticity, and soft taste to baked goods.
But excessive consumption of potassium bromate can damage the central nervous system, blood, and kidneys.
Bad habit six: drinking strong tea after drinking alcohol
The theophylline in tea can have a diuretic effect, and at this time, alcohol is excreted from the kidneys before it can be further decomposed, causing the kidneys to be stimulated by a large amount of ethanol, thereby damaging kidney function.
Bad Habit 7: Eating too salty
A salty diet can lead to an increase in blood pressure and the inability of the kidneys to maintain normal blood flow, leading to kidney disease.
