Cistanche Deserticola Also Has Side Effects, These People Should Not Take It

Aug 15, 2024

Western medicine believes that the kidneys are part of the human urinary system, located on the back of the waist, one on each side.

The kidneys are the main excretory organs that primarily excrete metabolic waste. They not only secrete endocrine hormones to help metabolism proceed smoothly but also regulate body fluids to maintain a harmonious and stable internal environment.

The kidneys are like the "cleaners" of the human body, with a very powerful function of excreting waste. According to statistics, the kidneys clean 200 liters of blood in the body every day, and toxins, garbage, and other waste in this blood are separated by the kidneys and ultimately eliminated from the body through the urinary system. So the kidneys also play an important role in the normal life of the human body. Once they have problems, it can lead to the deposition of toxins and other waste, causing problems such as blood pressure, skin, vision, and so on.

However, in recent years, due to the aging of the population and the rise of the incidence rate of hypertension, diabetes, and other diseases, the incidence of chronic kidney disease is still rising significantly worldwide. Kidney disease can almost be regarded as the generator of many diseases. Once this cleaner goes on strike, especially cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease, it is very likely to bring about a crisis of death.

The kidney is a platform that reflects the vascular system of the whole body. If there is a problem with kidney function, we must not be careless. Kidney disease usually does not have particularly obvious symptoms, while its common minor symptoms include elevated blood pressure, eyelid or ankle swelling, lower back and abdominal pain, urinary tract infections, difficulty urinating, red pain or the discharge of small stones, hematuria or proteinuria, increased or decreased urine volume, or nocturia.

The four behaviors that hurt your kidneys the most

1. Drink the beverage as plain water

Beverages contain a large amount of acesulfame, pigments, etc., especially darker-colored drinks with higher pigment content. These substances have a significant impact on the kidneys. Some children's formula milk on the market cannot replace dairy products for children to drink, because formula milk also contains a large amount of additives, which have a significant impact on the kidneys of young children.

2. Drink strong tea after meals

Tea has certain benefits for the body, but drinking tea in the wrong way can cause significant harm to the body. Especially strong tea can lower kidney function and impose a certain burden on the kidneys.

3. Long-term intake of salty foods

Experts say that excessively salty foods can increase the amount of sodium ions in the body, leading to an imbalance in sodium and potassium levels. When potassium ions in the blood are diluted, the viscosity of the blood increases, resulting in water loss and kidney damage.

4. Long-term consumption of high-fat and fried foods

There have been media reports that a girl who eats a fried chicken leg every day eventually develops kidney necrosis. This is mainly because fried foods contain a large amount of harmful substances that can have an impact on the body, so it is recommended that everyone eat less high-fat foods.

The importance of the kidneys is self-evident, as they play a crucial role in maintaining good circulation and functioning of our bodies. Proper maintenance of the kidneys can prolong life, relax tendons, promote blood circulation, and soothe the body and mind. The benefits of kidney maintenance are not only as mentioned above, but also include the following points.

1. The ancient medical book "Huangdi Neijing" records that "hair is not only blood, but the kidneys also store essence. Essence is born in the blood, and its essence is in the hair." From this, it can be inferred that kidney maintenance can produce black hair. Although the amount of hair is also inherited by genes, kidney maintenance can prevent hair loss and make hair black and shiny. So kidney care can nourish hair, making it black, beautiful, lustrous, elastic, and less likely to fall off or turn white.

2. The shape of the human kidney is similar to that of the inner ear. In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine in China, it is recorded that "the kidney is responsible for storing essence and opening the orifice in the ear". Therefore, it is known that the gateway for the essence and qi of the kidney to go out is our auditory system. In Western medicine, due to the similarity in content and distribution of enzymes secreted by the kidneys to those in the inner ear, the enzymes produced by the kidneys generate a series of potentials in the body, forming lymphatic potentials. Based on the lymphatic potentials in the body, they generate WeChat potentials near hair cells and between the capsule, which in turn form cochlear action potentials. Therefore, the substances produced by this series of chemical reactions constitute the biochemical basis of inner ear sound perception. Therefore, the maintenance of the kidneys is closely related to the sensitivity of our auditory system. Good maintenance of the kidneys can slow down the rate of hearing loss and prevent tinnitus.

3. Modern medical research has found that the composition of kidney essence, bone marrow, and brain marrow is similar. Adequate kidney essence promotes healthy circulation of the bone marrow, followed by healthy circulation of the brain marrow. This also confirms the traditional Chinese medicine theory in China that "essence generates marrow, and the thigh generates the sea". The maintenance of the kidneys can increase the amount of active proteases in the brain, which are key to improving memory in the brain. Improved memory improves work efficiency for middle-aged people and prevents the occurrence of dementia in the elderly.
