High uric acid has become a common metabolic problem for modern people, especially middle-aged and elderly people and obese people. The buildup of uric acid can not only cause joint pain, kidney damage, but also cardiovascular disease. Therefore, uric acid lowering has become a concern for many people.
In addition to medications** and dietary control, changing some lifestyle Xi can also be effective in lowering uric acid levels. Below, we will introduce a few simple and practical tips for lowering uric acid.
1.Increase your physical activity.
Moderate exercise can boost the body's metabolism and accelerate the excretion of uric acid. It is recommended to do more than 30 minutes of aerobic exercise every day, such as brisk walking, jogging, swimming, etc. However, it is important to note that excessive exercise may lead to muscle fatigue and lactic acid build-up, which in turn can induce gout.
2.Maintain a healthy weight.
Obesity increases uric acid production and accumulation, so maintaining a healthy weight is essential for uric acid lowering. It is advisable to control your weight through a reasonable diet and proper exercise, and avoid overeating** or overeating.
3.Have a regular schedule.
Staying up late and irregular work and rest will disrupt the body's metabolic balance and affect the metabolism and excretion of uric acid. Therefore, maintaining a regular schedule helps to maintain the normal metabolic function of the body and is conducive to the lowering of uric acid.
4.Avoid sitting for long periods of time.
Sitting for a long time can lead to poor circulation in the body, affecting the metabolism and excretion of uric acid. It is recommended to get up and move appropriately at work or in life to relieve fatigue and tension in the body.
These four tips are not only easy to follow, but they are also very effective in lowering uric acid levels. By changing these Xi habits, we can prevent and alleviate the health problems caused by high uric acid to a certain extent. Of course, if the uric acid level is too high or the symptoms of gout appear, it is still necessary to seek medical attention in time**.
