Ways of Protecting Your Kidneys
In order to ensure the protection and safety of your kiddneys, the following are the ways among many on how to safeguard your kidneys:

1. Always Stay Hydrated. It is advisable you drink up to 3 litres of fluid (water) in a day. This helps in making sure sediments are washed away within your urinary tract. Please, do not hold your urine. Endeavour to urinate when the urge arises.

2. Do Away with Herbal Concussions. Some of these herbal drugs are medicinal, no doubt but their dosages are not sure. The dose you are taking might be toxic to your kidneys.

3. Don’t Bleach Your Skin. Some products in the bleaching creams are toxic to your kidneys. When you apply them on your skin, the skin absorbs them into your system.

4. Avoid abuse of pain relievers like Felvin, Ibufen and paracetamol. They are toxic to the kidneys and should only be used when necessary.

8. Avoid hard drugs and stimulants. Most drugs are metabolized by the kidneys and their byproducts may be toxic to the kidneys. They could also make your blood pressure to rise.
