What do you know about kidney disease?
The kidney is an important organ of the body. The kidneys filter the body's waste products, maintain fluid balance, and maintain the body's electrolyte levels. Due to some of our negligence and lack of rules, the kidneys often lose their normal function, then various problems arise in the body. Sometimes death occurs due to kidney problems. This loss of normal function of the kidneys is called kidney disease.
Have you or someone you know ever experienced kidney-related issues?
Alhamdulillah, I am free from kidney disease. I drink a lot of pure water so that I do not develop a terrible disease like kidney disease. I also try to follow all the rules of hygiene.
However, I have seen a kidney patient. There is a tailoring shop in the area where I live. I have a good relationship with him. Whenever we meet, we would exchange opinions on various topics. His health was quite good.
Once after a long time, I saw him in a medicine shop. His body was half dried up. I saw that he could not walk by himself. Another person was helping him to walk. His eyes had sunken in. His hair was almost gone. I was scared at first when I saw him. Today I felt like I was seeing his skeleton, the gentleman I had seen in such a beautiful and healthy state.
I went to near him in a panic. Seeing him in this condition, I asked him what happened to him. He slowly said that his both kidneys were damaged. I understood that he was having difficulty even speaking.
I saw evidence of the severe suffering that a person suffering from kidney disease has to go through.
How can we prevent and manage kidney disease?
Preventing and managing kidney disease is essential for living a healthy life. We absolutely desire the health of our kidneys. So, if there is a problem with the kidneys, we have to take some steps. I have highlighted some steps to prevent this disease: -
Prevent kidney disease
- High blood sugar levels damage the kidney filters as soon as they occur. Therefore, the body's sugar level must be controlled at the right level.
- High blood pressure puts pressure on the kidneys. Therefore, high blood pressure must be controlled.
- For the health of the kidneys, you need to drink plenty of pure water.
- You need to eat healthy food for the kidneys.
- Avoid being overweight. Excess weight puts pressure on the kidneys.
- Avoid alcohol and smoking.
- You need to be very careful when taking medicines. This caution is especially necessary when taking antibiotics.
- If there is a kidney problem, you should always consult a kidney specialist.
Kidney disease management: -
- You need to eat foods rich in protein and potassium.
- You should reduce the number of foods that contain phosphorus. Because excess phosphorus can weaken bones.
- Follow the rules and take the right amount of medicine
- Consume more liquid foods.
- Always prioritize kidney-friendly foods.
