Middle-aged man diagnosed with kidney failure, uric acid level as high as 850, expert: both caused by these two types of food
In recent years, with the improvement of people’s quality of life, material needs have been basically met, and medical levels have also continued to advance. Most of the diseases that appear in our bodies can also find targeted relief measures. However, people’s health index has not improved, but has become lower. The types of diseases appearing on people are increasing, some are pre-existing, and many are new. Especially for men, although their physical fitness is naturally stronger, they rarely pay attention to their health in daily life and often have various bad habits. It may be that all health indicators were normal in their youth, but once they reach middle age and their bodies enter the aging stage, various skills of the body will encounter problems.
The kidneys can be said to be the most important organ for men because they are not only responsible for the metabolism of body fluids, but also for the secretion of various hormones in the body and the strength of the body’s physical fitness. Therefore, most men usually pay great attention to the protection of the kidneys. However, the kidneys are very fragile and can easily be damaged. For example, in recent years, the rise in uric acid not only damages blood vessels but also harms the kidneys. Therefore, it is hoped that all men can remain vigilant.
Recently, Hangzhou People’s Hospital received Mr. Wang, 47 years old. He suddenly felt lower back pain late at night and even experienced difficulty urinating when he got up to use the bathroom at night. Suddenly, he fainted unconscious, so his wife urgently took him to the hospital. After comprehensive examination and rescue, he finally escaped from the life-threatening situation. All the examination results attributed the cause to high uric acid levels. Examination results revealed that Mr. Wang’s uric acid index had reached 850, and his blood pressure and other indicators were also high. After careful inquiry, it was discovered that the current situation was all due to not controlling his diet. He loved eating the following two types of food.
The first type is animal organs.
In fact, there are many types of animal organs, such as pig liver, which many people like for blood replenishment, and tripe, honeycomb tripe, and more that many people must order when eating hot pot. These all belong to animal organs, and Mr. Wang usually loves to eat such foods, such as spiced pig liver, grilled kidney, etc. They not only taste good but also have rich nutritional components. However, these foods contain a large amount of purines. Once ingested into the body, they can easily be converted into a large amount of uric acid. The kidneys can only metabolize a limited amount of uric acid each day, which can lead to more and more uric acid accumulating in the body, causing the uric acid index to rise. Initially, only joint pain may occur, which rarely attracts the attention of men, so they do not timely regulate it, which naturally gradually damages the kidneys.
The second type is broth.
Mr. Wang is a typical southerner, and drinking soup is a common habit of southerners. Mr. Wang drinks soup almost every day, and the thicker and longer the soup is brewed, the better. The ingredients used to make the soup are also very particular, usually mainly beef, pork bones, etc. Although the nutritional value of such soups is very high, the purine content inside is also very high. Once consumed frequently, it will definitely lead to uncontrolled uric acid levels and cause significant damage to the kidneys.
In fact, besides these two types of food mentioned above, there are many other foods in our daily life that can cause elevated uric acid levels, such as common carbonated drinks, various meats, and seafood, etc. Therefore, it is hoped that everyone can try to control the intake of these foods as much as possible.
