Nourishing And Protecting The Kidneys Is Very Important. If The Kidneys Are Not Good, The Consequences Can Be Very Serious

In our abdominal cavity, there is a liver, a spleen, a pancreas, a stomach, an intestine, and - two kidneys. The reason why we have two kidneys is because... kidneys are very busy, brothers work together, and work is not tiring.

What does the kidney look like?

The kidneys are located on both sides of the back spine, below the ribs, and their periphery is surrounded by fat and muscles, which are difficult to touch by hand under normal circumstances. The kidneys of healthy adults are shaped like fava beans, about the size of an Apple 6th generation phone, and the thickness is equivalent to three or four of these phones stacked together. The kidneys only account for about 0.5% of the human body mass, and for a person weighing sixty kilograms, the total weight of the two kidneys is about sixty taels.

Kidney holds multiple positions, in addition to its primary job of water purification, it also has several part-time jobs.

1. Regulating blood pressure

On the one hand, the kidneys regulate the balance of water and salt in the human body, control the volume of fluids in the body, and thus maintain normal blood pressure.

On the other hand, it releases a hormone that constricts blood vessels, raises blood pressure, and ensures that blood is supplied to every corner of the body.

2. Promote hematopoiesis

The kidneys also secrete a hormone that promotes the production of red blood cells, which acts on the bone marrow hematopoietic system, promoting and accelerating the production of red blood cells. If the kidneys fail and no longer work, anemia will also worsen.

3. Maintain bone health

In addition, the kidneys can also process vitamin D, making it an active substance that plays a role in the human body, promoting the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the gastrointestinal tract, and maintaining the health and growth of teeth and bones.

Don't forget, that the vast amount of labor and diverse functions mentioned above are all achieved by those two phone-sized kidneys.

As age increases, the components in the kidneys gradually age, and kidney function slowly declines. The remaining components will actively take on excess work until the degree of component damage reaches more than three-quarters, and the remaining kidneys finally cannot function - this is called renal failure. How can we better take care of the kidneys?

Five key points for daily kidney care

Drinking plenty of water in daily life can help the body eliminate metabolic waste, reduce the concentration of toxic substances in the kidneys, and prevent kidney damage. When a person is sick and feverish, due to increased metabolism, the production of waste and toxic substances will also increase. At this time, it is especially important to drink more water to help with excretion.

The incidence rate of urinary tract infections increases with age, especially in the elderly. This may be related to insufficient renal blood flow and reduced renal resistance in elderly people. Prostate hyperplasia in males and pelvic diseases in females can easily cause urinary tract infections, so timely detection and active treatment are necessary. Frequent catheterization or indwelling catheters in clinical practice can also easily cause infections, so they should be avoided as much as possible.

Proper dietary therapy to tonify the kidneys is recommended for middle-aged and elderly friends. They can eat more Cistanche deserticola or products made from Cistanche deserticola in their daily lives.

Pay attention to keeping your waist warm on hot days and avoid sleeping outdoors in the cold. Especially, you should not sleep barehanded on wooden boards, stones, etc. In the cold season, it is important to keep your waist warm to avoid wind and cold invasion, which can damage or reduce kidney function.
