The root cause of uremia has been found out! Not only alcohol and tobacco, but also three kinds of food

March 11 is World Kidney Day every year. The theme of this year is "face kidney disease actively and share wonderful life".

In China, the prevalence rate of chronic kidney disease is as high as 10.8%, and the number of patients is more than 100 million. Among them, the number of patients with end-stage renal disease who need renal replacement therapy is more than 1.5 million, with an annual increase of 120000-150000.

Replenish the kidney, and destroy the kidney carefully!

Many people always want to give their own kidney a supplement, seems to be good kidney, the body can be better.

But in fact, the "kidney deficiency" belongs to the concept of traditional Chinese medicine, and it is not true that eating xxx can tonify the kidney. Moreover, at present, there is no kind of food that can directly nourish the kidneys.

Especially those "famous" kidney tonic foods, such as Cordyceps and poria cocos, have not yet had the exact data or sufficient medical theory to confirm that they have special benefits for the kidney.

Long term consumption, on the contrary, there are potential health risks.

Kidney, actually, it's very fragile

The kidney is responsible for filtering impurities, toxic substances, metabolic waste, etc. in human blood, and forming urine to be discharged from the outside. If there are some diseases, trauma, damage, etc., it will cause serious damage to the kidney, which will cause renal failure.

When the kidney is completely disabled, uremia will be formed. The patient will face hemodialysis, but hemodialysis is the life of dialysis, and the patient will probably die.

Therefore, there are many behaviors of kidney injury, and diet is one of them. Besides smoking and drinking, these foods also hurt the kidney!

First, tobacco and alcohol

The nicotine, cigarette tar, and alcohol in cigarettes and alcohol are all irritating. After entering the blood, they can easily cause damage to blood vessels, causing arteriosclerosis, hypertension, atherosclerosis and other problems.

However, the renal tubules in human kidney are subjected to high blood pressure for a long time, which will cause renal tubules lesions, lead to renal failure and eventually lead to uremia.

In addition, some alcohol and nicotine can enter the kidney directly, causing kidney damage, and also causing renal failure and uremia.

Second, high salt food

Salt has a direct impact on human blood pressure. If you eat too much salt food, it is easy to cause hypertension. As mentioned above, the damage of hypertension to kidney has been mentioned above. Such foods include pickle, soy sauce, ham intestine and other foods.

Besides, the pickled food is a favorite food. Besides high salt, toxic and harmful substances may be produced during the curing process. After eating, it will directly affect the kidney health of patients.

Third, high fat, high sugar food

High fat food includes fried food, animal viscera, cream, etc. too much food can lead to hyperlipidemia and hypertension, and it is easy to cause renal failure and uremia;

High sugar foods, such as carbonated drinks, white sugar, red sugar, cake, etc., are prone to diabetes, long-term high blood glucose damage to the kidney, great damage to renal function, and also lead to renal failure and uremia.

Fourth, high purine food

Now the quality of life has improved, people eat better and better daily, and eating high purine food has become more and more.

Such food, including seafood, broth, animal viscera, etc., can aggravate the burden of purine metabolism, and lead to disorder of purine metabolism and lead to high uric acid.

If the long-term uric acid is at a high level, the urate is easy to deposit in the kidney of human body, which will cause gouty nephropathy and uric acid stone. If the condition can not be alleviated, uremia will be caused.

Once uremia is produced, only two treatments can be relied on

The emergence of uremia means that the human kidney function is completely lost, the toxic and harmful substances, metabolites, impurities and other substances in the blood cannot be discharged from the outside, and will accumulate in human tissues and organs, and the patient will eventually die of poisoning.

There are two main methods for uremia treatment

First, dialysis, including hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, through which the patient filters the waste in the blood, replacing the renal function;

Second, kidney transplantation is the best way to solve uremia. However, because of the scarcity of kidney source and easy rejection with human body, there are not many cases cured by this method, most patients still choose dialysis.

Uremia is a serious disease, which is the manifestation of renal failure in the final stage. Most patients can only rely on dialysis to maintain their lives.

In a word, there is no so-called "kidney toning" medicine in the world.

Properly taking precautions, staying away from disease-causing factors, and not causing trouble to the kidneys, may be the most effective way to protect the kidneys.
