How to maintain good health for men's liver and kidneys

We all know that men's liver and kidneys are very important to their health, because they affect men's sexual ability and endocrine system. If there is a problem with the liver and kidneys, it is likely to cause back pain in men, so men should learn to nourish their liver and kidneys. As for the saying that men should nourish their liver and kidneys, we can regulate the liver and kidneys through food and medicine in our daily life.

1. Food nourishes the kidney: There are many foods that nourish the kidney, but the most effective one is animal kidney. The kidneys of pigs, dogs, sheep, and cattle all have the function of nourishing kidney qi and benefiting essence and marrow. Symptoms such as kidney deficiency, low back pain, spermatorrhea, and urinary incontinence can all be supplemented by eating animal kidneys. For example, sheep kidneys are sweet and warm, which can replenish kidney qi; pig kidneys are salty and flat, which can help kidney qi and benefit bladder function, and are also effective for kidney deficiency and swelling; dog kidneys are flat in nature, and are most suitable for elderly women with kidney deficiency, weak body, and cold hands and feet.

2. Kidney-tonifying drugs: Liuwei Dihuang Pills can be often used for kidney yin deficiency, in which Rehmannia glutinosa, Cornus officinalis, Chinese yam, Zexie, Poria cocos, and Cortex Moutan have the effect of tonifying kidney yin. For liver and kidney yin deficiency, blurred vision, Liuwei Dihuang Pills with Chinese wolfberry and chrysanthemum can be used as a soup. For kidney yang deficiency, Shenqi Pills can be used, which is Liuwei Dihuang Pills with cinnamon twig and aconite. In addition, ginseng, Shouwu, astragalus, licorice, placenta, cordyceps and other drugs also have the effect of strengthening the body and tonifying the kidney, promoting metabolism and improving the body's immunity.

3. Moderation in sexual intercourse protects the kidneys: nourishing the kidneys is nourishing the essence, and to nourish the essence one must be moderate in sexual intercourse. Zhang Jingyue, a famous doctor in the Han Dynasty, said: "Desire cannot be indulged. If indulged, the essence will be exhausted, and exhaustion will cause the essence to disperse. Essence can generate qi, and qi can generate spirit. Therefore, those who are good at health preservation must treasure their essence. When the essence is full, the qi is strong, the qi is strong, the spirit is full, the spirit is full, the body is healthy, and the body is healthy, the disease is less." Excessive sexual intercourse will cause the essence to leak out, which is easy to damage the body; moderate sexual intercourse and preserve the essence can resist aging and prolong life. However, sexual desire should not be suppressed too much, so as not to cause physical discomfort and psychological discomfort and affect physical health.

4. Foot bath helps kidneys: Soaking feet in warm water before going to bed can lead blood downward, replenish kidney qi, calm the mind, and help sleep. There was a governor in the Qing Dynasty who had a "health secret" in his later years: "Walk 300 steps in the morning and drink a basin of soup before going to bed." He emphasized soaking feet in hot water before going to bed. For this kind of foot bath, the water temperature should be around 40 degrees, and the time should not be less than 5 minutes. The feet should be rubbed against each other constantly. After getting out of the bath, wipe them dry immediately and rub the soles of the feet with your hands 200 to 300 times. Swallowing saliva frequently can nourish kidney essence and moisturize skin and hair; drinking more water can prevent excessive loss of body fluids, etc. In short, most geriatric diseases and premature aging are caused by deficiency of kidney essence, depletion of true essence, and exhaustion of yang energy, so middle-aged and elderly people should pay attention to maintaining kidney energy.

Regarding the methods of men's health preservation and liver and kidney introduced in the article, we should all know how men can protect their liver and kidney in life. For men, liver and kidney are very important organs. We hope that everyone can protect them more in daily life and learn more about health preservation methods.
