Kidneys play several vital roles in the human body. In addition to eliminating toxins from the bloodstream, they release hormones that help regulate blood pressure, stimulate the production of red blood cells, and keep bones in good health. Bottom line: these organs are crucial to the proper functioning of your body.

To protect your kidneys as much as possible against disease, you’ll need to adopt certain habits:

• Exercise regularly

• Eat healthy and cut down on salt

• Drink lots of water (around eight tall glasses a day)

• Don’t abuse over-the-counter medication (such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), and always follow your doctor’s orders regarding prescriptions

• If you smoke, stop

Furthermore, keep an eye on your blood sugar levels (especially if you have diabetes) and regularly check your blood pressure. In case of abnormal results, see your doctor without delay.

Health Advice from Chateau Glengarry Retirement Residence

 

Comment garder ses reins en bonne santé ?

Les reins jouent plusieurs rôles vitaux dans le corps humain. Outre l'élimination des toxines de la circulation sanguine, ils libèrent des hormones qui aident à réguler la pression artérielle, stimulent la production de globules rouges et maintiennent les os en bonne santé. En résumé, ces organes sont essentiels au bon fonctionnement de l'organisme.

Pour protéger au maximum vos reins contre les maladies, vous devez adopter certaines habitudes :

- Faire de l'exercice régulièrement

- Mangez sainement et réduisez votre consommation de sel

- boire beaucoup d'eau (environ huit grands verres par jour)

- Ne pas abuser des médicaments en vente libre (tels que les anti-inflammatoires non stéroïdiens) et toujours respecter les prescriptions de votre médecin.

- Si vous fumez, arrêtez.

Par ailleurs, surveillez votre glycémie (surtout si vous êtes diabétique) et contrôlez régulièrement votre tension artérielle. En cas de résultats anormaux, consultez votre médecin sans tarder.
