On this day:
BAFFLING BIOLOGY
On February 19, 1994, in California, six staff members of a seven-person medical team at Riverside General Hospital were rendered unconscious when one of the attendants took a blood sample from Gloria Ramirez, who had just gone into cardiac arrest. Ramirez had been admitted, semiconscious, with vomiting, chest pains, and trouble breathing; a slick, oily film coated her body. Ramirez's medical history said she was being treated for cervical cancer with an anti-nausea drug only and had not yet begun radiation treatments. As the syringe punctured her skin, strong, ammonia-like fumes filled the air, knocking out most of the team. Only one member was unaffected, for some unknown reason. The ambulance members who brought her to the hospital were not affected, and it is uncertain exactly where the fumes originated from. The emergency room was evacuated.
Those who had been contaminated went on to suffer extreme symptoms, and two required hospitalization. One doctor became bedridden with a bone-degenerating disease, and another required a ventilator because of erratic breathing. Three of the team appeared to have been poisoned by the deadly chemical class called organophosphates.
Blood samples taken from Ramirez and one of the infected staff members were shown to contain unknown particles of white and yellow crystalline materials. Ramirez died shortly after entering the hospital, and her autopsy was performed in a specially sealed coroner's chamber by emergency personnel in hazmat suits, who searched for a "nonspecific substance"; the body was later encased in layers of bags and an aluminum casket. Laboratory analysis detected an unidentified chemical compound in the bag containing Ramirez's body and in air samples taken during the autopsy. The conclusion was that she had died of kidney failure related to cancer, and no explanation of the bizarre phenomenon was found.

I'm being stoned again.
Tumblr media
I had Kidney Stone Day on Friday, but by Saturday I was feeling better. Panning for stones netted me debris, which was similar to what has gone before.
On Monday my Mom and I were going to leave for another state, planning to be there through the week for Thanksgiving.
I decided to grab my meds "just in case" and keep taking my flomax. I felt perfectly fine.
I borrowed a vehicle, and the seat was a little bit too far back, but not enough to prevent my using the pedals. A few hours into the 8 hour journey, I noticed soreness in my right hip. As that's the foot on the gas and break, I just assumed (hoped?) that it was my hip complaining about the reach, so we took a pit stop and I shifted the seat closer. I also got out and walked, used the restroom (normally) and stretched. I was feeling better, so we got back on the road.
The pain creeped up on me. I took one of the ibuprofen horse pills. It creeped back.
And then, just in time for the ibuprofen to wear off, the pain kind of landed on me in cleats.
I dug out the anti nausea meds, and even the Oxycodone. I didn't take the latter, but wanted it handy. I explained to my mom about what was going on. She had gotten to telling me stories from my childhood (yes, Mom, I was there) and was on a rant about how awful my father was. Normally, I just let her ramble, but I set a boundary. "Let's not talk about our emotional pain while I'm trying to cope with physical pain, ok?"
It took about 20 minutes for the second ibuprofen dose to kick in, and I got us back on the road after 15, on faith. We only had an hour and 45 min left, so I decided to power through and get us to our hotel.
We were driving in the rain again, so that slowed us down, but the meds worked well enough to keep me functional.
I got us checked in, and we found a cart to bring out stuff in.
Then my pain was so well managed that I was hungry, so I had a snack and went to bed.
This morning, the pain returned.
So I asked my aunt if she would like a Sister's Day with Mom, and encouraged them to go play together.
I'm going to chill out in the hotel room, and try to get the gravel out of my system. I haven't needed the Good Drugs yet, but I have them handy.
Honestly, having a day to rest and recooperate after driving and listening to my mother monologuing is kind of nice. I love her, and I like getting time with her.
On the other hand, she has taken it up on herself to persuade me that Christian Bale is A Great Actor and that his Batman is Best Batman*. While I'm sure that Bale is a perfectly good person, and that he studied his craft intensely, I don't enjoy him, in anything. And Mopey Throat Cancer Batman is my least favorite Batman.
Once I'm done being stoned from within, I will be happy to join in on the Bat Disc Horse with my mom. I intend to throw some of my favorite fanfic at her in retaliation. (She's old school and thinks fanfic is yucky. She'd call it "Cringe" if she weren't a legit boomer.) I bet the Bruce Wayne/Miss Piggy/Kermit story will delight her.
*I mean, to be fair, no live action creation is going to be better than Kevin Conroy's animated series Batman. But even George Clooney was a better Batman than Bale.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
  Have you ever heard about black seed oil? Did you know that people use this oil for thousands of years because of its therapeutic benefits? Original from Nigella sativa, a small plant with purple, blue, or white flowers that grows in East Europe, West Asia, and the Middle East, black seed has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. And did you know that they are also known as black cumin seeds, black cumin, kalonji, and black onion? According to scientists of different expertise, some of the benefits of black seed oil include: Helps with Weight Loss According to studies, a black seed supplement can help reduce the body mass index (BMI). And, according to a study published in 2013 in the Journal of Diabetes & Metabolic Disorders, it was found that black seed oil can be efficient against obesity. Helps with Cancer Prevention Recent studies show that the thymoquinone found in black seed oil can trigger programmed cell death, also known as apoptosis, in different types of cancer cells. It helps prevent brain cancer, leukemia, and breast cancer. However, the study was done only in cells, so the researchers still don't know how efficient the oil would be to treat people with cancer. Contributes to Kidney and Liver Functions According to a study from 2013, black seed oil can reduce issues related to hepatic and kidney diseases, and also improve these organs' structures. Improves cases of Diabetes According to a paper from the Journal of Endocrinology & Metabolism, black seed oil has anti-diabetic properties and can improve blood sugar levels. Helps with Infertility Research done on men with abnormal sperm and infertility issues found that black seed oil can improve sperm movement and also increase sperm count and semen volume.   Besides these benefits to general health, black seed oil is also good for the skin. In cases of eczema and psoriasis, the oil lessens the severity of eczema on the hands. Also, according to studies, the antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects of black seed oil can improve acne. In a study, 58% of participants reviewed the treatment as good, while 35% evaluated their results as moderate. That's fantastic, isn't it?! And, if all these benefits weren't enough, black seed oil can also hydrate your hair. To get this benefit, you can either ingest black seed oil as a capsule or apply it topically to benefit your skin.

Multiple Myeloma Treatment in India
Tumblr media
Multiple myeloma is a Blood disorder disease usually called Blood Cancer. Multiple myeloma can be treated by the Bone marrow transplant process.
In the initial stages of multiple myeloma, there are no symptoms but as the disease progresses, it may show some symptoms –
•          Bone Fractures
•          Bone pain
•          Tiredness/fatigue
•          Appetite loss/ weight loss
•          Kidney function problems
What is Multiple myeloma?
Basically, Multiple myeloma releases chemicals that create an imbalance in bone destruction and bone formation. This may cause a hole in bones or bone thinning. 
Multiple myeloma generally occurs in men than women. It is gradually increasing in urban India.
What causes multiple myeloma?
There is a condition known as monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance. Where there is an excess of protein molecules, called immunoglobins, in your blood.
Black people are more likely to develop multiple myeloma than other people.
Family history of multiple myeloma
Multiple myeloma diagnosed in the mid 60’s.
Procedure to diagnose of Multiple myeloma
Test and procedure to diagnose multiple myeloma –
Blood Test – In this test, it may reveal M Proteins produced by myeloma cells.
Urine Test – Anaylsis of your urine test may show M proteins
Imaging Test – This test may be recommended to check bone problems associated with multiple myeloma. It may include X-Ray, CT Scan, MRI
Treatment of Multiple myeloma
Different types of doctors work together to create a patient’s overall treatment plan that combines different types of treatment.
Treatment plan may include different phases –
Induction therapy – for rapid control of cancer and to help relieve symptoms.
Chemotherapy or Bone marrow transplant/ Stem cell transplant
Maintenance therapy – over a long period of time to prevent cancer occurrence.
Types of medications used for multiple myeloma –
Chemotherapy - a drug treatment that uses powerful chemicals to kill fast growing cells in your body.
Targeted Therapy - a type of cancer treatment, that uses drugs to target specific genes and protiens that help cancer cells survive and grow.
Steriods - An anti-inflammatory medicines used to treat a range of conditions.
Immunotherapy - a type of cancer treatment that increases immune system to fight cancer. It helps your body fight against infections.
Bone-modifying drugs
Stem Cell Transplant
Stem cell transplantation is a treatment choice for individuals with multiple myeloma. There are three general kinds of transplantation  :-
● Autologous transplantation - The Stem cells are gotten  from your own blood or bone marrow. This is the kind of transplantation that is generally ordinarily suggested for treating multiple myeloma.
● Allogeneic transplantation - The Stem cells or bone marrow are gotten from a donor  with a tissue type matching yours. This kind of transplantation conveys exceptionally high risk and isn't suggested for the vast majority with numerous myeloma.
● Syngeneic transplantation - The stem cells or bone marrow are obtained from an identical twin. This is the ideal type of transplantation, albeit barely any individuals with different myeloma have an indistinguishable twin who can act as a donor.
Transplantation, when effective, prompts a reduction and drags out endurance; seldom, allogeneic transplantation fixes different myeloma. Notwithstanding, transplantation has a few limits. The high-portion chemotherapy given before transplantation generally neglects to kill all of the plasma cells, permitting the condition to backslide after transplantation. Such treatment likewise expands your gamble of serious contaminations and dying, which can be deadly.
Autologous foundational microorganism transplantation — Autologous stem cell organism transplantation alludes to transplantation with your own undeveloped cells. During this system, stem organisms are gathered and frozen for sometimes in the future. High-portion chemotherapy is then given to kill however many plasma cells as could be expected under the circumstances, and the stem organisms are defrosted and gotten back to your body. Foundational microorganisms can be acquired from the blood or the bone marrow; for this situation, getting them from the blood is liked, on the grounds that blood undeveloped cells move to tissues all the more rapidly and are less inclined to be tainted with malignant plasma cells.
As of now, autologous stem cell transplantation is appropriate for up to 50 percent of individuals with multiple myeloma. Autologous undeveloped cell transplantation isn't suggested for individuals with seething multiple myeloma (individuals with multiple myeloma who have no side effects).
Who treats multiple myeloma?
Orthopedic Surgeon, a doctor who uses surgery to treat diseases of  bones.
Radiation oncology, a doctor who treats cancer with radiation therapy.
Medical oncologist, a doctor who treats cancer with medicines such as chemotherapy or targeted therapy.
Bone marrow transplant Specialist, a doctor who specializes in performing bone marrow transplants.

Temonat 20mg
Tumblr media
Temonat 20mg belongs to a class of medicines called 'anti-cancer/ antitumor agent', used to treat specific forms of brain tumours such as glioblastoma multiforme (a type of tumour that grows and spreads rapidly) in adults and malignant glioma, including glioblastoma multiforme or anaplastic astrocytoma (a rare malignant brain tumour) in patients older than 3years. A brain tumour is an uncontrolled and unregulated proliferation of cells in the brain. 
Temozolomide, an ingredient in TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE, functions by preventing the synthesis of DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid—the genetic substance of the cell—which in turn affects cell division and growth. As a result, TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE stops tumors from spreading.
As directed, take one TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE. TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE may occasionally result in symptoms such as fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, aches in the muscles, and anxiety. The majority of these TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE side effects go away with time and don't need to be treated medically. However, get in touch with your physician if the negative effects don't go away. 
If you have any allergies to any of the ingredients, let your doctor know. Patients who have considerable bleeding or severe bone marrow depression should not use TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE. If you are pregnant or nursing, do not take TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE. When taking TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE, both men and women should utilize birth control to prevent getting pregnant and fathering a child. Given that TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE may induce fatigue or drowsiness, it is advisable to avoid operating machinery that requires alertness and driving.
Medicinal Benefits
TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE belongs to a class of medicines called anti-cancer/antitumor drugs used to treat certain types of brain tumors, such as malignant glioma, which includes glioblastoma multiforme or anaplastic astrocytoma, a rare malignant brain tumor, in patients older than three years. Glioblastoma multiforme is a type of tumor that grows and spreads quickly in adults. Temozolomide, which is present in it, functions by attaching itself to DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, the genetic substance of cells) and obstructing their ability to divide and expand. As a result, TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE stops tumors from spreading. 
Side Effects of TEMONAT 20MG CAPSULE
Loss of appetite
Difficulty speaking

How Diabetes Affects Cancer Risk: A Comprehensive Guide
This article is originally published on Freedom from Diabetes website, available here. Uncontrolled diabetes lead to several health complications. As the body struggles to deal with the high blood sugar levels (BSL), almost every organ from the skin to the bones, nervous system to the digestive system, is negatively impacted. Over time, this can result in a variety of health issues including heart attack, stroke, kidney damage, vision problems, Alzheimer’s disease, and even cancer!
Tumblr media
Yes, statistics show that there is a definite link between diabetes and cancer, although no validated scientific study exists as yet, there is little doubt that people with diabetes are at a higher risk of some cancers. Diabetes doubles the risk of some cancers: liver, pancreas colorectal, and breast, for instance.
Diabetes and cancer do have some common risk factors, such as age, bad diet, no physical activity and high-stress levels. These are also prime risk factors for inflammation, which is one of the key triggers for insulin resistance and increased cancer risk.
Cancer Prevention Strategies
1.Maintain your sugar level- Diabetics should try to keep their blood sugar level low. It will lower the risk of cancer.
2.Health diet- Diabetics should have a diet , including vegetable, fruits with low GI, rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory agents, vitamins, and minerals.
Regular exercise- It’s recommended that diabetics get a minimum of 30 minutes of exercise. Including cardiovascular movements, resistance training, and flexibility & balance sessions.
Lower your stress- Stress is another big problem for insulin resistance. Try be stress free. Try for meditation. It will helpful for you.
Take a doctor's advice - It is essential that everybody, especially older populations, get their health checks done regularly. This is the best way to stay on top of any incipient health issues.
Do Diabetes Drugs Increase Cancer Risk?
There is no definitive proof that diabetes treatments increase the risk of contracting cancer. While some drugs, such as metformin reduce the risks of cancer, others might increase the risk factor. But this has by no means been substantiated.
So do not let this affect your diabetes treatment. If you’re not clear of the risks, please talk to your doctor. What is clear though is that lowering your BSL will help reduce your risk of health complications associated with diabetes, and, thus, cancer.
By following these treatment and prevention tips, you can manage diabetes and cancer effectively. To read more about this, please visit our Article. Also please connect with me on my website, Facebook page, and YouTube if you want to stay in touch or give me any feedback!

Herbal Food Supplements for Boosting Immunity
Your immune system is your body's first line of defense against viruses and diseases, so it's important to build a strong immunity. One way of boosting your resistance is by eating a well-balanced diet. However, if you frequently eat processed foods, you don't always get the sufficient nutrients you need. That's where an herbal food supplement comes in.
Herbal capsules contain plant ingredients rich in vitamins and minerals that can help you build stronger resistance. Keep reading below to learn how common supplement ingredients can strengthen your immune system to promote overall wellness.
Understanding the Immune System
Your immune system consists of a network of organs and blood cells that work together to protect your body against invaders like bacteria, viruses, and parasites.
When these invaders enter your body, a healthy immune system can identify and fight them off. It can also remember these invaders and develop antibodies to prevent them from entering your body in the future.
A weak immunity prevents your system from functioning well, so you're more prone to infections and sickness. Here are factors that can weaken your immune health:
Poor diet
Lack of sleep
Excess stress
Drug and alcohol use
Medical conditions (ex, diabetes or cancer)
Herbal Supplement Ingredients That Boost Immunity
Check out the list below to learn more about the herbs incorporated into supplements that boost immunity.
Ampalaya (Bitter Melon)
Ampalaya, or bitter melon, contains antioxidants that act as a defense mechanism against free radicals, so it lowers your chances of getting sick. It's also jam-packed with other nutrients and minerals that help promote good health, such as:
Vitamin A
Vitamin B
Vitamin C
Calcium
Zinc
Iron
Phosphorus
Copper
As a result, regular intake of herbal capsules with ampalaya can decrease your chances of developing kidney damage, heart disease, and liver problems. Because of its numerous nutritional benefits, you can find herbal supplements in the Philippines that incorporate ampalaya in their formulation.
Garlic
Garlic is another powerful ingredient that helps boost immunity. It contains a compound called alliin, which turns into allicin when crushed and mixed into an herbal food supplement.
Allicin helps enhance the disease-fighting response of your white blood cells to better protect you against diseases, such as colds, flu, and certain types of cancers. Garlic can also help you fight illnesses by lowering your stress. That's because it makes your adrenal glands produce less stress hormones, reducing fatigue.
Ginger
You might have heard about the old wive's tale of drinking ginger tea whenever you have a cold or flu. Surprisingly, there's some truth to it because ginger offers various health benefits, including boosting your immune system. That's because it contains various antioxidants, including:
Gingerols
Paradols
Sesquiterpenes
Zingerone
Shogaols
As a result, it's effective in reducing inflammation in conditions like sore throat, arthritis, and certain types of cancer. If you want to experience the benefits of ginger but can't stand drinking ginger tea, consider taking it through an herbal capsule from a reliable brand.
Turmeric
Another excellent ingredient to look for in an herbal food supplement is turmeric due to its immunity-boosting factors. Curcumin, its active component, contains anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties.
Turmeric also regulates the production of T-cells and B-cells so you can maintain strong immunity and prevent autoimmune diseases from developing. With regular intake, turmeric can also help stave off the following illnesses:
Colds
Coughs
Flus
Sinusitis
Asthma
Ginseng
An example of a potent immune booster is ginseng, which contains antiviral, antifungal, and antibacterial properties that boost the function of your immune system. Regular intake has also been shown to significantly increase immune cell levels, enhancing your system's resistance to illness and microbial attacks.
In addition, its extracts and ginsenoside compounds are shown to slow down inflammation and decrease oxidative damage to your cells, preventing chronic diseases. Note that most herbal supplements with ginseng, like the Herb-Plus capsule, are safe to take daily. However, some sources recommend that you take a 2-week break from the ingredient every 2-3 weeks.
Incorporating Herbal Supplements into Your Daily Routine
If you want to start taking herbal supplements to boost your immune system, make sure to check the label to ensure you're not allergic to any of its ingredients. Although it's next to impossible to overdose on the capsules, it's still best practice to follow the directions on the packaging to figure out the recommended dosage so you can get the most out of their benefits.
Most herbal capsules also don't have any contra-indications, but if you have medical conditions or are taking prescription medication, it's still best to check with your doctor to ensure the supplements won't exacerbate your condition.
Final Thoughts
An herbal food supplement can help you boost your immunity. The trick is to find a brand that contains ingredients that help strengthen your resistance, like garlic, ampalaya, and ginseng.
Shanne Herbal Products has herbal capsules that contain these exact ingredients. Aside from helping you build a stronger immune system, it also increases your appetite, enhances your memory, and smoothens your skin so you can enjoy an overall healthy body.

All About Cysts: What They Are and How to Manage Them
Cysts are common and can appear almost anywhere on the body. They are often harmless but can sometimes cause discomfort or other issues. In this blog, we’ll explore what cysts are, what causes them, and how the cyst removal process works, all in easy-to-understand terms.
What is a Cyst?
A cyst is a closed sac-like structure filled with liquid, semi-solid, or gaseous material. Cysts can develop in various parts of the body, including the skin, organs, and tissues. While most cysts are benign (non-cancerous), they can sometimes cause problems depending on their size and location.
Common Types of Cysts
Epidermoid Cysts: These are small, benign bumps that form under the skin, often on the face, neck, or back.
Sebaceous Cysts: Arising from sebaceous glands, these cysts usually appear on the face, neck, or torso.
Breast Cysts: Fluid-filled sacs within the breast tissue, common in women, especially those between 35 and 50 years old.
Ovarian Cysts: These form on or inside the ovaries and are common in women of childbearing age.
Ganglion Cysts: Non-cancerous lumps that typically develop along the tendons or joints of wrists or hands.
Causes of Cysts
Cysts can form for various reasons, including:
Blocked Ducts or Glands: This is a common cause of cyst formation.
Infections: Some cysts form due to infections, such as abscesses.
Inflammatory Conditions: Chronic inflammation, like acne, can lead to cysts.
Genetic Factors: Some cysts are inherited, such as those associated with polycystic kidney disease.
Injuries: Trauma to an area can sometimes result in cyst formation.
Symptoms of Cysts
The symptoms of cysts can vary widely depending on their type and location. Common symptoms include:
Visible Lump: A noticeable lump or swelling under the skin.
Pain or Discomfort: Particularly if the cyst is large or in a sensitive area.
Redness and Warmth: These are signs of inflammation or infection.
Fever: If a cyst becomes infected, it can cause fever and general malaise.
Functional Impairment: Cysts near vital organs can affect their function.
Diagnosing Cysts
If you notice a lump or unusual symptoms, it’s important to see a healthcare provider. They will likely perform a physical examination and may order imaging tests such as an ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI. In some cases, a biopsy may be necessary to rule out cancer or other serious conditions.
Cyst Removal
While many cysts are harmless and can be left alone, others may need to be removed, especially if they cause pain or other symptoms. Here are common methods of cyst removal:
Aspiration: Using a needle to drain the fluid from the cyst. This is often a quick and minimally invasive procedure.
Surgical Excision: Larger or problematic cysts may require surgical removal. This procedure is usually done under local anesthesia.
Medications: Infected cysts may be treated with antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs to reduce symptoms and prevent further complications.
After cyst removal, it’s important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for care. This typically includes keeping the area clean and avoiding activities that could disrupt the healing process.
Prevention
While not all cysts can be prevented, you can reduce your risk by:
Maintaining Good Hygiene: Regular cleaning of your skin can help prevent blocked glands and ducts.
Avoiding Trauma: Protecting your body from injuries can reduce the likelihood of cyst formation.
Managing Health Conditions: Proper management of conditions like acne or PCOS can lower the risk of developing cysts.
Conclusion
Cysts are common and often harmless, but they can sometimes cause discomfort or other issues. Understanding what cysts are, why they form, and how they can be treated, including the process of cyst removal, is important for maintaining your health. If you suspect you have a cyst or are experiencing symptoms, consult with a healthcare provider to discuss your options. Taking care of your health is always the best approach, and professional advice can guide you towards the best treatment for your situation.

Caring for Your Kidneys: Daily Habits for Optimal Health
Your kidneys are vital organs that play a crucial role in maintaining your overall health. They filter waste and excess fluids from your blood, regulate blood pressure, and balance electrolytes. Keeping your kidneys healthy is essential for your well-being. Here are some daily habits to help you maintain optimal kidney health.
1. Stay Hydrated
Drinking plenty of water is one of the best ways to support your kidneys. Adequate hydration helps your kidneys remove toxins from your body through urine. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water a day, but adjust based on your activity level and climate. Clear or light-colored urine is a good sign of proper hydration.
2. Eat a Balanced Diet
A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins supports kidney health. Limit your intake of salt, as high sodium levels can increase blood pressure and strain your kidneys. Avoid processed foods, which often contain high levels of sodium and unhealthy fats.
3. Monitor Your Blood Pressure
High blood pressure can damage your kidneys over time. Regularly check your blood pressure and keep it under control with a healthy diet, regular exercise, and, if necessary, medication prescribed by your doctor.
4. Exercise Regularly
Regular physical activity helps maintain a healthy weight and lowers blood pressure. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week. Activities like walking, swimming, and cycling are excellent choices.
5. Avoid Smoking and Limit Alcohol
Smoking can reduce blood flow to your kidneys and impair their function. It also increases the risk of kidney cancer. Limiting alcohol consumption is also important, as excessive drinking can cause high blood pressure and liver damage, which in turn affects the kidneys.
6. Manage Blood Sugar Levels
If you have diabetes, controlling your blood sugar levels is crucial to prevent kidney damage. Follow your doctor’s recommendations for diet, medication, and monitoring your blood glucose levels.
7. Be Cautious with Medications
Some over-the-counter medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), can cause kidney damage if taken frequently or in high doses. Always follow the recommended dosage and consult your doctor before starting any new medication.
8. Get Regular Check-Ups
Regular check-ups with your healthcare provider can help detect kidney problems early. Routine blood and urine tests can monitor kidney function and identify issues before they become serious.
9. Limit Protein Intake
While protein is essential for your body, consuming too much can put extra strain on your kidneys. If you have kidney disease, your doctor may recommend limiting your protein intake to prevent further damage.
10. Reduce Stress
Chronic stress can negatively impact your blood pressure and overall health, including your kidneys. Practice stress-reducing activities such as yoga, meditation, deep breathing exercises, or hobbies you enjoy.
Conclusion :
Taking care of your kidneys is vital for your overall health and well-being. By incorporating these daily habits into your lifestyle, you can help ensure your kidneys function optimally for years to come. Remember, small changes can make a big difference, so start today and give your kidneys the care they deserve.
