1, bad habits that affect health
Bad habit one: don't like drinking water.
Most people are not interested in drinking water, or even think it is unimportant, but in fact it is easy to do great harm to the body. Metabolic wastes in our bodies are mainly treated by the liver and kidneys. The kidney, which only accounts for 65,438+0% of the body weight, receives 65,438+0/4 of the total cardiac output, and 65,438+0 ~ 2 liters of blood passes through the kidney every minute. Therefore, the kidney receives far more waste than other organs. The most important thing for the kidney is to regulate the water-electrolyte balance in the human body, metabolize the wastes produced by physiological activities and excrete them with urine, but when it performs these functions, it needs enough water to assist.
Developing the habit of drinking plenty of water can dilute urine and let it be discharged quickly, which can not only prevent stones, but also help dilute urine when eating too much salt, thus protecting the kidneys.
Bad habit 2: Love to drink beer.
If you have kidney disease and drink a lot of beer without restriction, uric acid deposition will lead to renal tubular obstruction and renal failure.
If there is something wrong with the kidney during the blood test, I am afraid that the renal function has been seriously damaged at this time. Instead of waiting for a blood test to understand the kidney, it is better to have a urine test regularly, because urine test is the easiest and quickest way to understand the kidney.
Bad habit 3: Use drinks instead of boiled water.
Most men don't like the lightness of boiled water. In contrast, carbonated drinks such as soda and cola or drinks such as coffee naturally become the best substitute for boiled water. However, the caffeine contained in these drinks often leads to an increase in blood pressure, which is one of the important factors that damage the kidney. Try to avoid drinking too many drinks, use boiled water instead, and insist on drinking 8 cups of boiled water every day to promote the timely discharge of toxins in the body.
Bad habit 4: improper consumption of fruits and vegetables.
It is a common idea that eating more vegetables and fruits is good for health. However, for people with chronic renal insufficiency, vegetables and fruits, which are usually considered to help naturally lower blood pressure, contain high potassium, but long-term consumption will lead to impaired renal function. In fact, for people with poor renal function, potassium is also a component that will aggravate the work of the kidney, which is very harmful to the kidney.
Bad habit 5: Eat too much meat.
The American Food Association once suggested that the human body's daily intake of protein is 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight, which means that a person weighing 50 kilograms can only consume 40 grams of protein every day, so he can't eat more than 300 grams of meat a day, so as not to cause too much damage to the kidneys.
Bad habit 6: Eat too much salt.
Salt is an important culprit to increase the burden on the kidneys. 95% of the salt in our diet is metabolized by the kidneys. If we eat too much salt, it will increase the burden on the kidneys. In addition, sodium in salt will make it difficult for the human body to excrete water, further increasing the burden on the kidneys, which will lead to the decline of renal function.
Scientific daily salt intake should be controlled within 6 grams, of which 3 grams can be obtained directly from daily food. Therefore, the seasoning of food should be kept within 3 to 5 grams. It is worth noting that there is a lot of salt in instant noodles, so people who often eat less are the best.
Bad habit seven: eating painkillers indiscriminately.
Studies have shown that long-term use of mixed painkillers will force the blood flow rate of the human body to decrease, which will seriously affect the function of the kidney. In addition, it is worth noting that patients with renal failure caused by painkillers are also more likely to develop bladder cancer. No matter what kind of painkillers you take, they are only suitable for occasional use, and you must never take them for a long time. If you need to rely on painkillers for a long time, you must see a doctor for a thorough examination.
2. Keep healthy habits
Have a nutritious breakfast.
Breakfast is the fuel to activate the brain for a day, so you have to eat it. Many studies have pointed out that eating a good breakfast can make people think sharply and react flexibly in the morning, and improve the efficiency of study and work. The study also found that people who have breakfast habits are less likely to gain weight and have better memories than those who have breakfast habits.
2. 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day
This is 199 1 year, which is jointly promoted by the National Cancer Institute and the Health Promotion Foundation. According to the survey, people who eat more fruits and vegetables can reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease. I suggest you put fruits and vegetables where you can easily see and get them to remind yourself to eat more fruits and vegetables. You can also dice fruits and vegetables as snacks instead of cookies and snacks that will make you fat.
3. Exercise for 30 minutes every day
Many studies have pointed out that you can get the benefits of exercise by exercising for 30 minutes every day, including preventing heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity, depression and so on. Some studies even point out that exercise can make people feel happy and enhance their self-confidence. If you haven't exercised for a long time, I suggest you gradually increase the length and strength. You can start with the simplest walking exercise and walk for 20 to 30 minutes every day. If you keep going, you will definitely feel many benefits.
Floss your teeth.
Flossing can not only reduce the chance of tooth decay, but also protect the heart. According to the data of American Periodontal Association, people with periodontal disease are more likely to suffer from coronary artery disease than the general population.
5. Bring nature indoors
Listening to the sound of fallen leaves in the rain, or watching the fish swimming in the water, can give people a peaceful and quiet mind. Experts point out that the feeling of combining with nature can reduce stress. Planting potted plants at home or in the office, or raising a pot of fish, are all good suggestions.
give up smoking
Smoking a cigarette will produce more than 4000 chemicals, of which more than 40 will cause cancer. The number of smokers who died of lung cancer was 16 times that of non-smokers. Quitting the habit of smoking is not only good for your health, but also a sign of loving your family, because second-hand smoke is more toxic than first-hand smoke and has been listed as the number one carcinogen by WHO, and children are often the biggest victims of second-hand smoke. More than a quarter of sudden infant deaths are caused by parents' smoking, which causes babies to inhale second-hand smoke. Secondhand smoke can also increase the frequency of asthma in children and aggravate the condition.
7. Turn off the TV when eating.
Scholars who study children's obesity and watching habits have found that watching TV while eating usually leads to obesity and prolongs the time of watching TV by as much as 70 minutes. Therefore, whether adults or children, it is best to turn off the TV when eating, concentrate on eating and enjoy the food on the table.
8. Work and play.
If you just bury yourself in your work, it is easy to lack enthusiasm. You might as well relax. Prepare a scrapbook, collect humorous materials such as cartoons and jokes, and take them out from time to time every day to make yourself laugh. You can also cultivate some interests outside of work. It's hard to cheer yourself up without entertainment.
No matter how busy you are, you should chat with your family.
Ou Ning, an authoritative American cardiologist and former medical consultant of former US President Bill Clinton, found through decades of research that having intimate relationship can prevent and slow down heart disease and even provide strong resistance to life. No matter how colorful the external life is, everyone needs a close relationship, where they can open their hearts and share their troubles. Therefore, no matter how busy you are, you should chat with your family every day to nourish their close relationship.
10. Let yourself have a good sleep
Good sleep quality is more important than the length of sleep. A few steps can make you sleep sounder:
1, make the bed first, and take care of the quilt and pillow to the most comfortable state.
2. Lie down in your most natural and comfortable posture.
3. After lying flat, take a few deep breaths to relax yourself. Then scan it from head to toe with your feelings to see which part is tight, and then try to relax.
4. If you are still thinking about your work, you can imagine that when you breathe, you spit out negative emotions, then inhale positive energy and breathe back and forth several times until you are calm. 5. Relax and fall asleep gradually.
