Health preservation is the companion of longevity, and health is the friend of longevity. Here is a collection of health magazines, where we will share health tips with you!
We all know that the kidneys are particularly important for men, and because modern men tend to not prioritize health as much as women do, along with the unhealthy habits of staying up late and drinking alcohol, they can easily put a heavy burden on the kidneys. Therefore, preventing kidney disease is crucial for men. Let’s understand together, for men with healthy kidneys, there are possibly these 4 “habits” before bedtime, and even having one is fortunate!
Men with healthy kidneys may have these 4 habits before bedtime, if you have them all, sneak a smile!
1. Drinking more water before bed
Some people may think that it’s not advisable to drink too much water before sleep, but here, drinking more water before bed simply means having a glass of water before sleep is enough. Because drinking water helps eliminate waste from the body, it can also dilute harmful substances in the kidneys, reducing the burden on the kidneys. So, drinking a glass of water before sleep every day can ensure reducing the damage of toxic substances to the kidneys, but avoid drinking excessive water before sleep, as it can easily burden the kidneys.
2. Don’t hold back urine before bed
Many people like to visit the bathroom before sleep to make the sleep more comfortable and protect their liver and kidneys. But some people have the habit of holding back urine while sleeping, which can lead to the kidneys reabsorbing urine excessively, creating a more serious burden on the kidneys, and these toxins cannot be timely eliminated, easily leading to kidney stones.
3. Don’t eat too salty before bed
About 95% of the nutrients absorbed from the diet need to be metabolized by the kidneys. Eating too salty before sleep increases the metabolic burden on the kidneys, and the sodium in salt can disturb the body’s electrolytes, further burdening the kidneys and causing abnormal kidney function. Therefore, it is advisable for those who enjoy strong-flavored foods to avoid eating too salty foods before sleep for better kidney health.
4. Don’t take medication randomly before bed
Some people consume a lot of health supplements for health preservation, or take various medications whenever they feel slightly uncomfortable, which can also harm the kidneys. Excessive medication intake can cause significant damage to our bodies, especially for those who take medication long-term, leading to premature kidney function failure, severely impacting kidney health. Unless under special circumstances, medication should only be taken as directed by a doctor, and not taken randomly.
