Health for All says
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that uremia is mainly caused by kidney failure. The kidneys are an important excretory organ of the human body, which is responsible for removing waste products and toxins from the body and maintaining the stability of the internal environment. When there is a problem with the kidneys, waste products and toxins cannot be effectively removed and gradually accumulate in the body, leading to the occurrence of uremia.
So why are there more and more patients with uremia?One of the important reasons for this is the five substances in modern life – salt, sugar, oil, wine, and medicine. These substances cause damage to the kidneys to a certain extent. Salt has a certain stimulating effect on the kidneys, and long-term intake of too much salt can lead to an increase in blood pressure, which in turn can damage the kidneys. Excessive sugar intake will increase the burden on the kidneys, which can easily lead to kidney failure in the long run. Greasy food can increase the burden on the kidneys, and excessive alcohol consumption can also cause damage to the kidneys. In addition, drug abuse is also one of the important causes of uremia. Many drugs produce metabolites during use, and these metabolites need to be excreted through the kidneys, and if the drugs are not used properly, they will put a burden on the kidneys, and it is easy to damage the kidneys in the long run.
In order to prevent the occurrence of uremia, we should pay attention to a reasonable diet and reduce excessive intake of salt, sugar, oil and alcohol. The diet should be light, eat more fresh vegetables, fruits and whole grains, and consume high-quality protein in moderation. In addition, it is necessary to use drugs with caution, take them on time and in the right amount according to the doctor's instructions, and do not abuse drugs. Developing good living habits, insisting on moderate exercise, and maintaining a good mental state are also important ways to prevent uremia.
For patients who have already suffered from uremia, TCM advocates TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, uremia is a condition in which the pathological changes are already severe, so it is necessary to adjust the imbalance of the body through the syndrome differentiation and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, alleviate the condition and delay the progression of the disease. Among the ancient and modern prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine, there are many prescriptions that can be used for uremia, such as Sishen Tang, Liuwei Dihuang Pill, etc. These formulas help patients recover their health by regulating the function of the kidneys and other organs in the body, improving the body's immunity and resistance.
In conclusion, the occurrence of uremia is closely related to the modern lifestyle, and excessive intake of salt, sugar, oil, alcohol and drug abuse can cause damage to the kidneys. Therefore, we should pay attention to healthy eating habits and lifestyles, and take measures to prevent and reduce the occurrence of uremia as much as possible. For patients who already suffer from uremia, TCM syndrome differentiation treatment can be used as an adjunct to help patients recover their health.
