Kidney Failure Is Silent: Simple Habits to Protect Your Kidneys

by

  1. Stay Hydrated
    Drinking enough water helps the kidneys flush out toxins and prevents the formation of kidney stones. Aim for 6–8 glasses per day, depending on your body’s needs and activity level.

  2. Monitor Blood Pressure and Blood Sugar
    High blood pressure and diabetes are the leading causes of kidney damage. Regular check-ups can help detect problems early.

  3. Avoid Excessive Salt and Processed Foods
    Too much sodium makes the kidneys work harder. Choose fresh foods, herbs, and spices instead of processed snacks.

  4. Limit Overuse of Painkillers   

  5. Frequent use of non-prescription painkillers like ibuprofen can harm the kidneys if taken in high doses or over long periods.

    1. Exercise Regularly
      Physical activity supports healthy blood circulation and reduces the risk of diabetes and hypertension, both of which stress the kidneys
