Why does the incidence of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) remain high, no matter how much attention
people pay to nutrition and health? Experts point out that CKD is caused by many
factors especiallypeople’s lifestyle. Thus what are the bad habits affecting the
renal function?
■ Holding urine frequently.
If the urine stays for a long time in the bladder, bacteria can breed and
retrograde to the kidney via ureter, leading to urinary tract infection and
Pyelonephritis. The process appears repeatedly can induce CKD which is not easy
to be cured.
■ Taking medicine abusively or excessively
Taking too much medicine with Nephrotoxicity may easily cause renal tubular
interstitial damage because some elements in them can damage the kidneys. For
instance, Chinese herbal medicine with aristolochic acid which is contained in
Caulis aristolochiae manshuriensis (guan mu tong), Aristolochia fangchi (guang
fang ji), dutchmanspipe root (qing mu xiang); Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory
Drugs (NSAIDS) and antibiotics in medicines such as somiton, paracetamol.
■ Staying up, having salty food, and drinking little or no water in a whole
day
It is easy to have damage to renal function for those people who are always
stay up late, suffer great pressure, and love strong tea and coffee.
If one has a habit of loving salty food, he/she is likely to have a high
blood pressure which can lead to the abnormal of blood flow in kidneys.
Lacking water is the direct reason of less urine. And then the concentration
of wastes and toxin in urine will increase and cause renal diseases such as
Renal Calculus, Hydronephrosis.
■ Having too much seafood and drinking beer
Amounts of food with high-protein(Proteinuria and Kidney Disease), such as fish and meat, is the origin of
extensive metabolic waste including Uric Acid (UA) and urea nitrogen, all of
which can make the renal burden of excretion heavier.
Further more, Hyperuricemia may be a consequence of too much drinking which
can also lead to other metabolic diseases including Hyperlipidemia, and kidney
disease. And in summer, many people would like to have seafood and to drink wine
at the same time which lifestyle has been once called “the most harmful diet to
kidneys” by the doctors of renal disease.
The tips mentioned above are the habits which injury the kidneys most. So
people must form a good habit in daily life in order to stay far away from
diseases.
