      The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy means you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Understand the threat male healthy If there is a killer, you must be prepared to fight against it. In order to protect the kidneys, everyone must be alert to the following "kidney-damaging" factors.

      1. Abuse of analgesics: Long-term use or large-dose use of some anti-inflammatory analgesics, such as pain relievers, indomethacin, paracetamol, aspirin, etc., can easily cause kidney damage.

      2. Overdose of certain Chinese herbal medicines: clinical Chinese herbal medicines that have been found to "damage the kidneys" include: Tripterygium wilfordii, Akebia mutton, morning glory, Xanthium vulgaris, poppy shell, Shengcaowu, Shijunzi, Qingmuxiang, Fangjiji etc. Among them, Tripterygium wilfordii causes the greatest kidney damage, followed by Guanmutong.

      3. Overeating: Modern people have more opportunities to have dinner parties and often eat too much "delicious food". Most of these wastes are excreted through the kidneys. Excessive eating will undoubtedly increase the burden on the kidneys.

      4. Frequently holding in urine: Some people hold in urine for a long time because they are busy at work. Experts warn that holding in urine can lead to urinary tract infections and pyelonephritis. Once such infections recur, they can lead to chronic infections that are difficult to cure.
