1. Regularly holding urine
Urine in the bladder can breed bacteria over time, which can retrograde through the ureter to the kidneys, leading to urinary tract infections and pyelonephritis. Once repeated, it can cause chronic infection and is difficult to cure.
Eating seafood and drinking beer
Eating a large amount of high protein diet, such as big fish and meat, can produce excessive metabolic waste such as uric acid and urea nitrogen, increasing the burden of kidney excretion. However, heavy drinking can easily lead to hyperuricemia. These habits can also cause metabolic diseases such as hyperlipidemia and kidney diseases. Many people like to drink beer while eating seafood, which was once referred to as the "most kidney damaging way to eat" by nephrologists.
3. Taking medication indiscriminately or excessively
Long term use of nephrotoxic drugs can easily lead to renal tubulointerstitial damage. These drugs include Chinese herbal medicines containing aristolochic acid, such as Guanmutong, Fangji, Qingmucang, etc., as well as non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotic, such as analgesic tablets, paracetamol, etc., which are prone to kidney damage.
Stay up late, eat salty, and do not drink water
Long term staying up late, high work pressure, and a love for strong tea and coffee can easily lead to kidney function problems. Eating 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. 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, which can easily lead to kidney stones, hydronephrosis, and so on.
