What food good for kidneys?
-
I went for foot reflexology and was told one of my kidneys is weaker than the other.
Should I believe him?
If really my kidney no good, is there anything I can take to make it stronger?
I dun wan to go NKF leh.
-
lotsa water..
seriously... none of the stuff which is loaded with all the yukky stuff like preservatives and sugars and chemicals..
try detoxing..
and lower your protein in your food, have more fresh veggies...
alternatively, just wander to a chinese medical hall or places like Ma Kuang and get some consultation
p.s. exercise would do you good too coz it makes the blood and all that circulate and sweats out the toxins... and.. on a side note, we're going to the Night Safari on 3rd Sept... wanna join us? -

here's something for you.. did a quick search:
#
The kidneys
What they do: acting rather like a water purification plant that keeps a city's water drinkable and disposes of its wastes, the kidneys filter out toxins, waste products and excess sodium from the blood, disposing of it in urine. They also produce an enzyme that regulates blood pressure.
Kidney overload: a diet rich in salt strains the kidneys. With men currently consuming 10g of salt a day and women 8g on average, we are eating 4g and 2g more respectively than the recommended intakes. Drinking too little fluid concentrates the urine, increasing the risk of mineral salts forming stones and interrupting the filtering mechanisms.
Kidney detox
# Reduce salt. Choose salt-reduced bread; porridge and shredded wheat; cook meat, fish and poultry minus sauces and with minimal salt; opt for fresh or frozen vegetables or those canned in water.
# Drink two litres of water daily, plus an extra litre for every hour of exercise, and cranberry juice to reduce the risk of urinary infections.
# Reduce foods likely to stimulate kidney stones, such as red meats, seafood, spinach, rhubarb and chocolate.
# Eat naturally diuretic foods such as asparagus, celery and watermelon.
# Take gingko biloba. A powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, it also improves blood flow to the kidneys. -
Calcium, lots of it, salt also helps.
-
Try supplements... can visit your nearest supplement store... chinese or western, they would have solution for you...
-
My advise:
Let a chinese sinseh prescribe the correct herb for u to nurture. Different ppl have different body conditions. -
Maybe tomolo make my way down to Zhong Hwa or Thong Chai medical hall for them to read my pulse. They will prescribe something suitable.
-
that's the way
hope there's nothing wrong with your health... -

He said it's weaker, didn't say its no good.

Spinach contains potassium. Not bad for the kidneys, but makes it work a little overtime to get it out.
