Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the role of the kidneys runs throughout life and is the innate foundation of the human body.
The kidney can balance the body's water and liquid metabolism, consolidate qi and generate marrow, nourish the brain and improve intelligence, and has the functions of kidney qi opening up the ears, controlling hearing, and controlling the opening and closing of the two yins. It is closely related to human growth and development.
In addition, traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidney is not just an organ, but a system that mainly regulates the functions of the whole body and provides basic material source power for life activities. It can be said that kidney is an indispensable organ of our human body, so if you want to have good kidneys, you must get rid of the four bad habits I mentioned next.
1. Don’t wait until you are thirsty and dry before drinking water . Drinking more water can speed up the metabolism of the kidneys and eliminate waste from the body.
2. It is best not to drink very thick broth , because the rich purine in the thick broth will cause damage to kidney function.
3. Do not drink carbonated drinks as water. Carbonated drinks contain a lot of fructose. Long-term drinking may cause gouty kidney disease or kidney stones.
4. Do not hold back urine for a long time . This will increase the burden on the kidneys and may slowly develop into nephritis . It may also cause urethritis .
Moreover, Chinese medicine believes that there is a certain correlation between spleen deficiency and kidney deficiency . If not treated in time, it may also cause spleen and kidney deficiency.
People with spleen and kidney deficiency usually have symptoms such as abdominal fullness, soreness and weakness in the waist and knees, edema of the lower limbs, dizziness and tinnitus, frequent urination and urgency, cold pain in the abdomen, diarrhea, and loss of appetite.
Have you ever behaved like this? How many of the above can you do?
