What to eat to nourish the kidneys

It is important to note that renal failure is a very serious disease, which can generally be divided into acute renal failure or chronic renal failure. Regardless of which type of renal failure occurs, the disease progresses rapidly. There are many reasons that can lead to renal failure, such as insufficient blood supply to the kidneys due to severe trauma, which may eventually cause renal failure. There are also some serious renal diseases that can lead to renal failure. People with renal failure can take food supplements.

Diet protects the kidneys. There are many foods that can nourish the kidneys. In addition to black foods such as black sesame, black fungus, black rice, black beans, etc., which can nourish the kidneys, walnuts, leeks, shrimps, lamb kidneys, etc. can also play a role in nourishing the kidneys. In addition, there are many acupuncture points on the soles of the feet, such as Yongquan acupoint. "The kidneys come from Yongquan, and Yongquan is the center of the foot." You can massage the Yongquan acupoint on the soles of your feet before going to bed every night. Massaging the Yongquan acupoint can nourish the kidneys and consolidate the essence.

Swallowing saliva nourishes the kidneys. The saliva in the mouth is divided into two parts: the thin saliva is controlled by the spleen, and the thick saliva is controlled by the kidneys. You can do an experiment. Spit out the saliva in your mouth as soon as it appears. In less than a day, you will feel soreness in your waist and fatigue in your body. This proves that swallowing saliva can nourish kidney essence and play a role in protecting the kidneys.

Be wary of medicines. Both Chinese and Western medicines have some side effects. Some medicines can damage the kidneys if taken regularly, so be vigilant when taking medicines. Read the instructions carefully. If you need to take a certain medicine for a long time, consult a relevant expert. Water is the source of life. Insufficient water may cause stagnation of toxins and increase the burden on the kidneys. Therefore, drinking water regularly is an important way to nourish the kidneys.

Generally speaking, renal failure is generally divided into three stages: oliguria, polyuria, and recovery. During the oliguria or polyuria stage, it is generally not recommended to take dietary supplements, but to actively carry out treatment. During the recovery period of the disease, which is generally about 3 to 12 months, the kidney function will slowly return to normal, so some necessary dietary supplements can be taken at this stage to promote physical recovery.
