🔴 How can I protect my kidney function?
✅ 5 Things People with Kidney Disease Should Do:
● Lower high blood pressure.
✅ Your kidneys play a key role in keeping your blood pressure in a healthy range. Diseased kidneys are less able to help regulate blood pressure. As a result, blood pressure increases.
● Manage blood sugar levels.
✅ High levels of blood sugar can damage the kidneys and cause them to fail.
● Reduce salt intake.
✅ A high salt diet will alter this sodium balance, causing the kidneys to have reduced function and remove less water resulting in higher blood pressure.
● Avoid NSAIDs, a type of painkiller.
✅ If you have decreased kidney function, certain types of pain medications such as NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) are not recommended because they reduce blood flow to the kidneys.
High doses and long-term use of painkillers may harm the kidneys, even healthy ones.
● Moderate protein consumption.
✅ A high protein intake has been shown to accelerate kidney damage in people who have kidney disease.

FOOD CRAVINGS EXPLAINED
Food cravings 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧 that are responsible for memory, pleasure, and reward.
𝙀𝙢𝙤𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 may also be involved in producing a food craving, especially if a person eats for comfort.
𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 experience especially strong cravings, which may be due to hormonal changes that can disrupt their taste and smell receptors.
🔴 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐟 𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐲
Use the “𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭” to gauge your appetite. If you're truly hungry, nutritious food (like an apple) will sound appetizing.
If you feel as though you won't be “satisfied” unless you bite into a greasy or sweet snack, that's probably a craving, not physical hunger.
The hungry feeling doesn't pass.
🔴 𝐖𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬
● 𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐬
Stress and emotional eating can influence a variety of health issues. Feeling stressed may promote emotional eating and cravings for comfort foods.
● 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫
Drinking plenty of water helps clean out toxins from the body, which may also benefit a person’s overall well-being.
● G𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩
● E𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐢𝐧
A healthful diet should contain plenty of lean sources of protein, as they may help reduce cravings.
● 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐮𝐦
Chewing gum keeps the mouth busy and may help reduce both sweet and salty cravings.
● 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝
For cravings at home, it may help to take a walk around the block, take a shower, play tetris or even call a friend.
🔴 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬
● 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬: To avoid potato chips, replace them with a salty snack that is higher in healthy 𝐟𝐚𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐢𝐧, such as 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐰𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐬.
● 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞: Cravings for chocolate may be a need for 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐮𝐦, and some people find they can satisfy the craving by eating magnesium-rich foods, such as 𝐚𝐥𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐬. If nothing but chocolate will do, opt for 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 that contains at least 𝟕𝟎 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐚.
● 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐲 𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬: Sugar cravings can be easily satisfied with whole 𝐟𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐬, 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐬 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬, 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬, 𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧. Keeping dried fruits, such as prunes or raisins, on hand may also be helpful for combatting cravings on the go.

Good and bad habits for your kidneys
❌ Bad Habits That May Harm Your Kidneys
● Overusing Painkillers
● Abusing the Salt Shaker
Diets high in salt are high in sodium, which can increase blood pressure and, in turn, harm your kidneys. Flavor your foods with herbs and spices instead of salt (BEST SPICES: https://youtu.be/4ta-OEYmiIA )
● Eating Processed Foods
Processed foods are significant sources of sodium and phosphorus. Many people who have kidney disease need to limit phosphorus in their diets.
● Not Drinking Enough Water
Staying well hydrated helps your kidneys clear sodium and toxins from the body.
● Missing Out on Sleep
A good night’s rest is extremely important to your overall well-being and, it turns out, your kidneys.
● Eating Too Much Meat
Animal protein generates high amounts of acid in the blood that can be harmful to the kidneys and cause acidosis – a condition in which kidneys cannot eliminate acid fast enough (Right Protein for Kidney Patients: https://youtu.be/Rmqa6790qy4 ).
● Eating Too Many Foods High in Sugar
Sugar contributes to obesity which increases your risk of developing high blood pressure and diabetes, two of the leading causes of kidney disease.
● SMOKING
Smoking isn't good for your lungs or your heart. But did you know that smoking may not be good for your kidneys either? People who smoke are more likely to have protein in the urine, a sign of kidney damage.
● Drinking Alcohol in Excess
Regular heavy drinking - more than four drinks a day - has been found to double the risk chronic kidney disease.
● Sitting Still
Sitting for long periods of time has now been linked to the development of kidney disease. Although researchers don’t know yet why or how sedentary time or physical activity directly impact kidney health, it is known that greater physical activity is associated with improved blood pressure and glucose metabolism, both important factors in kidney health.

Reduce Your Risk For Chronic Diseases
⦿ Healthy habits that anyone should be able to include in their daily lives.
1. GET YOUR EXERCISE
Regular exercise helps control weight, maintain healthy bones, muscles, and joints, and reduces our risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes.
2. Eating a healthy diet
Eating well is fundamental to good health and well-being. Healthy eating helps us to maintain a healthy weight and reduces our risk of type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and some cancers.
3. Drink Plenty of Water
It can do so many good things for you. Staying hydrated is at the top of the list.
4. Learn Something New
New skills help keep your brain healthy. Sign up for a dance class or a creative writing workshop. Better yet, master a new language. The mental work it takes can slow the signs of aging and may even delay the effects of Alzheimer's disease.
5. Don't Smoke
If you light up, quit. It's a big move toward better health. Your body repairs itself quickly. As soon as 20 minutes after your last cigarette, your heart rate and blood pressure drop. Why wait? Kick the habit, today.
6. Sleep Well
A good night's sleep keeps you in a better mood, sharpens memory and focus, and helps you learn new things. In the long term, it lowers your risk of heart disease and helps you keep trim. Aim to get 7 to 9 hours a night.
7. Be Mindful
It can mean meditating or simply stopping to smell the roses. However you do it, studies show mindfulness slashes stress, relieves pain, and improves your mood. And scientists are beginning to understand how. One study found that 8 weeks of regular meditation can change parts of your brain related to emotions, learning, and memory. Even washing dishes can be good for your brain, as long as you do it mindfully.
