The propaganda slogan of kidney clinic activities is short.

At present, there are about 850 million patients with kidney disease in the world.

Chronic kidney disease can cause at least 2.4 million deaths every year, ranking as 1 1 in the global mortality rate.

At present, there are more than 1.5 million uremic patients in China, and the number of new uremic patients is increasing with the trend of 1.2- 1.5 million every year.

The second Thursday of March every year is World Nephropathy Day. The theme of this year's Kidney Disease Day is "Everyone enjoys kidney health", which aims to call for universal health coverage and prevent and treat kidney diseases at an early stage.

So, how to care for kidney health?

Any professor in charge of the Department of Nephrology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine pointed out that following the eight golden rules can obviously reduce the risk of kidney disease.

Regular work and rest, exercise, cultivate a healthy lifestyle, participate in jogging, swimming, cycling, walking and other activities, and practice meditation and yoga to maintain a healthy mind and ensure the health of the kidneys.

Diabetic nephropathy has become the second leading cause of end-stage renal disease.

Diabetic nephropathy is more difficult to treat than other kidney diseases, so timely prevention and treatment is of great significance for delaying diabetic nephropathy.

Monitor blood sugar regularly and seek medical advice in time to avoid or delay the occurrence of diabetic nephropathy.

At present, there are more than 330 million hypertensive patients in China. If they are in a state of hypertension for a long time, their kidneys will be ischemic, their renal function will be damaged, and even uremia will develop.

Once dizziness, headache or nocturia occur, blood pressure must be monitored, and urine routine and renal function should be checked to achieve early detection and treatment.

Choose fresh and healthy foods, such as vegetables, fruits, fish, nuts and lean meat. Avoid junk food.

Pay attention to regular diet, keep your weight within the highest weight range according to the healthy weight scale, and keep your kidneys healthy.

Adults' salt intake is kept at about 6g every day, and excessive intake will have a great impact on hypertension and kidney disease.

Pay attention to late salt, vinegar and less sugar, and limit the ingredients of salty food. If you already have kidney disease, you need to use low-sodium condiments carefully.

Professor He introduced that the daily water intake of adults is about 2500 ml, and the water intake should generally be balanced with the daily discharge of the human body.

Generally speaking, the amount of water discharged consists of the following:1500ml (average daily urine output of adults)+800ml (skin and respiratory tract output)+100 ~ 200ml (feces) = 2500ml.

The daily diet contains about 1000 ml of water, so besides eating, you need to drink about 1500 ml of water.

If each glass of water is 200 ml, about 6 ~ 8 glasses of water can meet the needs of human metabolism.

Studies have shown that nicotine in cigarettes can increase glomerular filtration rate, change renal tubular function, increase urine output and accelerate the deterioration of chronic kidney disease.

In addition, smoking has an impact on hypertension and diabetes, which can indirectly lead to the deterioration of kidney condition. The longer the smoking history, the more serious the kidney damage.

As the saying goes, "it's a three-point poison."

Every year, 2.5 million patients in China are hospitalized due to adverse drug reactions. As one of the important organs of drug metabolism and excretion, the chance of kidney injury is greatly increased.

Therefore, take as little over-the-counter drugs as possible at ordinary times, standardize the use under the guidance of a doctor when necessary, and always pay attention to the changes in urine.

Abnormal renal function, especially chronic renal injury, often has no conscious symptoms and needs blood test.

If there is persistent and tiny foam in urine, or urine color changes, too much or too little urine, nocturia increases, edema, etc. You must see a doctor in time.
