For diabetes and high blood pressure, everyone must be familiar with it, so what about high uric acid?
I believe that young people have basically heard of high uric acid. After all, nowadays, there are more and more young people suffering from high uric acid, and as the "fourth highest" in the emerging army, the number of people suffering from high uric acid in China has reached 18.7 billion, more people than diabetes.
Especially now that it is summer, many young people especially love to eat supper, drink beer, and eat seafood barbecue, these combinations are undoubtedly "high purine**", if you take a large amount of it regularly, it is easy to lead to high uric acid.
So, when uric acid in the body is too high, will our body have some abnormal symptoms?
If uric acid is too high, there may be 2 abnormalities when going to the toilet
Uric acid is a substance that is metabolized by the body and is normally excreted in the urine.
However, when uric acid is too high, it can trigger a range of health problems, including gout.
When it comes to the cause of its occurrence, it is mainly when uric acid accumulates too much in the body, uric acid crystals are formed, and these crystals are deposited in joints and tissues, triggering gout. Symptoms of gout include joint pain, redness, swelling, fever, etc.
The abnormal phenomenon when going to the toilet is also likely to be a manifestation of high uric acid.
The first abnormality is frequent urination, which is a frequent feeling of the need to go to the toilet to urinate.
You may find yourself having to go to the toilet every once in a while, which can still be very disruptive to your normal life. In general, in summer, if you drink a lot of water, you will go to the toilet more often, but it will not be abnormally large.
The second abnormality is urgency, which is a sudden and urgent need to go to the toilet to urinate.
In this case, you may feel very anxious and uncomfortable because you need to find a toilet immediately, although the urgency of urination can also be caused by prostate disease, etc., but we also need to consider whether it is caused by high uric acid.
Both of these abnormalities can be a sign of high uric acid, and if you experience these problems frequently, it is advisable to consult a doctor as soon as possible and make the corresponding **.
In addition, high uric acid can also lead to urine abnormalities, manifested as cloudy urine, frequent urination, and urgency.
If you experience these symptoms frequently, then you may need to take some steps to lower your uric acid levels.
Teach you 2 tricks, excrete uric acid, and prevent gout
The first trick is to eat reasonably
Diet is key to controlling uric acid levels.
First of all, you need to reduce your intake of high-purine foods, as purines are the main source of uric acid**.
High-purine foods include meat, seafood, internal organs, etc. You can choose some low-purine foods, such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, etc., to replace high-purine foods.
In addition, it is also very important to drink plenty of water, which can help dilute uric acid in the urine and promote the excretion of uric acid. Remember, eating a sensible diet is the foundation for preventing high uric acid.
The second trick is to exercise moderately
Exercise not only helps you manage your weight, but also promotes the excretion of uric acid.
Moderate aerobic exercise, such as walking, jogging, swimming, etc., can increase the metabolic rate and accelerate the breakdown and excretion of uric acid.
In addition, some yoga and stretching exercises can also help relieve joint pain and improve discomfort caused by high uric acid. Remember, moderate exercise is an important part of maintaining good health.
In addition to the above two tricks, there are some other precautions that we need to pay attention to.
First, avoid excessive alcohol consumption, as alcohol can interfere with the excretion of uric acid.
Secondly, maintaining good lifestyle habits, such as regular work and rest, adequate sleep, etc., can help maintain the balance of the body.
Finally, if you have already been diagnosed with high uric acid or gout, then follow your doctor's recommendations** and have your uric acid levels checked regularly.
To sum up, high uric acid is a common but easily overlooked health problem. Through a reasonable diet, moderate exercise, and paying attention to lifestyle habits, we can reduce uric acid levels and prevent the occurrence of gout.
Remember, health is our most valuable asset, let's work together to keep our body healthy and stay away from high uric acid!
