Exercising too much or for too long can damage your kidneys. [사진=클립아트코리아]The kidneys remove waste products and regulate the amount of water and salt in the body. It secretes hormones that stimulate red blood cell formation, helping hematopoiesis, while activating vitamin D also contributes to calcium intake.
If you realize the importance of your kidneys, start by reducing the liver in your food. Salt raises blood pressure and damages the kidneys. You should also quit smoking. What else should I watch out for? We looked into the unexpected causes of kidney damage introduced by the American health and medical media ‘Web MD’.
Excessive intake of protein = Protein is an essential nutrient for sustaining life. However, if people with weak kidneys eat too much protein, it can be harmful. Protein should be consumed little by little and in various forms. In other words, it is best to eat a variety of foods rich in protein, such as eggs, fish, beans and nuts, as well as meat.
Excessive exercise = If you exercise too much or for too long, you may experience rhabdomyolysis, a condition in which necrosis occurs due to a lack of energy supply to the muscles. The resulting toxic substances place a burden on the kidneys, causing acute tubular necrosis or renal failure. When exercising, be careful not to overdo it. It is not a good idea to suddenly increase or increase the intensity over time. If you have muscle pain and dark urine, it is best to see a doctor.
alcohol = Chronic heavy drinking may increase the risk of chronic kidney disease. The likelihood of acute kidney damage from a single binge drinking (more than 4 to 5 drinks within 2 hours) is low, but if the habit of heavy drinking continues for a long time, it can cause kidney disease.
salt = As mentioned above, in some people, consuming too much salt can increase blood pressure and accelerate kidney damage. It can also lead to kidney stones, which can cause nausea, severe pain, and difficulty urinating.
cigarette = Smoking can worsen high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes, the two main causes of kidney disease, as well as interfere with the action of medications used to treat them. It also slows blood flow to the kidneys and may cause kidney problems in people who already have kidney disease.
soft drink = Soft drinks, like alcohol, have a negative effect on the kidneys. According to a study, women who drank more than two cups of diet soda a day for nearly 20 years had a 30% drop in kidney function compared to women who did not drink diet soda. Sugar-sweetened beverages, including juice and soda, have also been linked to increased rates of kidney disease.
Lack of moisture = Your kidneys need water to function properly. If you frequently do not consume enough, kidney damage can occur. How do you know if you are drinking adequate water? Urine should be bright yellow in color.
Painkiller = Taking large amounts of over-the-counter painkillers, such as acetaminophen, aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen, or regularly taking the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug Celebrex (celecoxib) can cause kidney damage. In this case, you should consult your doctor regarding the medications you are taking and whether there are other options.
illegal drugs = Illegal drugs such as cocaine, heroin, or methamphetamine cause kidney damage in a variety of ways. Some of these drugs may cause high blood pressure, one of the leading causes of kidney disease.
Strength-enhancing steroids = Some people take anabolic steroids, which act like the male hormone testosterone, to build muscle. However, this drug can leave scars in the area of the kidneys that filter the blood. This can cause swelling in body parts, loss of protein in the blood, and increased cholesterol levels.
Heartburn remedy = Long-term use of drugs called proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which reduce stomach acid, can cause kidney damage. Some studies have shown that high doses of PPIs may increase the risk of long-term kidney disease. If you’re concerned, it’s a good idea to talk to your doctor regarding whether a different type of heartburn treatment might be better for you.
Strep Pharyngitis = Strep throat is a bacterial infection that causes your throat to become sore and irritated. When you have this disease, your body makes antibody proteins to fight off the infection, but the extra substances can deposit in the filtering parts of the kidneys and cause inflammation. Although it usually does not last long, kidney damage can be permanent in some people. If you think you have strep throat, you should see your doctor as soon as possible.
