What is kidney disease? Kidney disease is a general term for various kidney diseases. In our daily lives, kidney disease can cause great harm to our health. If treated in a timely manner, it can lead to other diseases and further harm our health. It is also important to remind you that while treating kidney disease, there are some things that you need to pay attention to.
1. Avoid consuming large amounts of protein
In daily life, if the patient eats too much protein, it will lead to the occurrence of kidney disease. The intake of a large amount of protein will lead to the increase of blood uric acid concentration in the body, which will lead to hyperuricemia. However, an increase in blood uric acid concentration can have significant toxicity to the kidneys, easily leading to pathological changes in the renal tubules and interstitium, ultimately leading to chronic renal failure, known as uremia.
2. Eat less food that is too sweet or too greasy
If patients eat too sweet or too greasy in their daily lives, it not only increases the burden on the kidneys, but also leads to obesity. It may even lead to the occurrence of diabetes, which seriously endangers human health. According to research, about 40% of diabetes patients will have early symptoms of diabetes nephropathy, and diabetes nephropathy is also the most difficult kidney disease to treat.
3. Don't take medication indiscriminately
In daily life, if patients take medication casually, it can damage their kidneys, and many of the waste generated in the body is excreted through the kidneys through urine, including the metabolites of drugs in the body. Some drugs have obvious toxic side effects on the kidneys. Therefore, the key to treating kidney disease is to pay attention not to take medication indiscriminately and to follow the doctor's instructions.
