Warm feet is a way to nourish the kidney. This is because the kidney meridian starts from the sole of the foot and the foot is vulnerable to cold. So pay special attention to keep your feet warm and don't sleep in front of air conditioners or electric fans; Don't walk barefoot in wet places for a long time.
In addition, there are many acupoints on the feet, such as Yongquan point. "The kidney comes from the spring, and the heart of the spring is full." Before going to bed every night, you can press Yongquan point on the soles of your feet, and massage Yongquan point can play a role in tonifying kidney and solidifying essence.
Second, the stool should be unobstructed.
Poor defecation, poor defecation and upward attack of turbid qi not only make people upset, chest tightness and shortness of breath, but also hurt their kidneys, leading to backache, fatigue, nausea and vomiting. Therefore, keeping the stool unobstructed is also a way to tonify the kidney.
When the stool is difficult to understand, you can stick the back of your hand on the kidney area and press it hard to rub it, which can stimulate kidney qi and accelerate defecation; When walking, rubbing the kidney area of the back with your hands can relieve the symptoms of backache.
Third, drink water to tonify the kidney.
Water is the source of life. Insufficient body fluid may cause turbid toxin retention and increase the burden on the kidney. Therefore, drinking water regularly is a very important way to tonify kidney.
Fourth, don't endure urine.
When the urine stored in the bladder reaches a certain level, it will stimulate the nerves and produce micturition reflex. At this time, you must go to the toilet in time to clean up the urine. Otherwise, the accumulated urine will turn into turbid water and damage the kidneys. Therefore, when there is urine, it should be discharged in time, which is also one of the best ways to tonify the kidney.
Fifth, promoting fluid production and tonifying kidney.
The saliva in the oral cavity is divided into two parts: sparse saliva is mainly spleen; The thick saliva is mainly the kidney. You can do an experiment and spit it out as soon as there is saliva in your mouth. In less than a day, you will feel weak and tired. This in turn proves that swallowing body fluid can nourish kidney essence and protect kidney.
Sixth, diet and kidney protection
There are many foods that can tonify the kidney. Besides black foods that can tonify the kidney, such as black sesame, black fungus, black rice and black beans, walnuts, leeks, shrimps and sheep kidneys can also tonify and nourish the kidney.
Seven, sleep kidney.
Adequate sleep plays an important role in maintaining qi and blood biochemistry and kidney essence. Clinically, many patients with renal failure have experienced excessive staying up late, fatigue and lack of sleep. Therefore, don't stay up too late, develop good habits, go to bed early and get up early, which is conducive to the maintenance of kidney essence.
Eight, avoid fatigue and sexual intercourse.
Too much physical work will hurt qi, too much mental work will hurt qi and blood, and too much indoor work will hurt sperm. So we must do what we can, do the right job and have the right sex life. This will help nourish the kidney and protect the kidney essence.
Nine. Watch out for drugs.
Both traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine have some side effects, and some drugs will hurt the kidney if taken frequently. Therefore, be vigilant when taking medicine, read the instructions carefully, and consult relevant experts when taking a drug for a long time.
Ten, exercise kidney.
