Find this "point" on your body and you won't have to worry about kidney deficiency in your life

Kidneys are the foundation of our constitution. Healthy kidneys can better maintain the physical and mental health of the human body, which is also the key to prolonging people's life. Therefore, for many people who care about health, how to nourish the kidneys has become a focus of attention. However, there are many ways to nourish the kidneys. In addition to diet and exercise, we can also try acupoint massage to maintain health. Among them, there are three important kidney-tonifying acupoints hidden in the human body.

1. Three acupuncture points on the body to nourish the kidneys

1. Guanyuan Point

The basis for the normal functioning of all life activities of the human body is maintained by the vital energy in the human body, which is called Yuan Qi in Chinese medicine. Yuan Qi is stored in the kidneys and is innate. However, with age and bad habits, the vitality in the human body will gradually decrease, so the body will show an aging state, posing a threat to people's healthy development.

And 3 inches below the human navel, there is an important acupuncture point hidden - Guanyuan acupuncture point. This acupuncture point is the intersection of the Ren meridian and the three yin meridians of the foot. Regular massage can effectively stimulate the Guanyuan acupuncture point, so that the vital energy stored in it can burst out continuously, playing a role in raising the vital energy. Therefore, it can better enable the growth and development of the human body to obtain sufficient "nutrients", thereby achieving the purpose of warming the acupuncture points and organs.

When massaging the Guanyuan point, we should take the Guanyuan point as the center point and massage it in a counterclockwise and clockwise direction with the left or right palm. The strength of the hand should not be too heavy, otherwise it will cause adverse harm to the abdominal organs. Each massage lasts about 3 minutes. In addition, when massaging, we also need to adjust our breathing at any time and press the Guanyuan point according to the rhythm of our breathing, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

2. Shenshu Point

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that: "The essence stored in the kidneys is divided into yin and yang qi." Among them, cold hands and feet are a manifestation of kidney yang deficiency, while yin deficiency will cause symptoms such as night sweats. For some people who work at a desk for a long time, sit for a long time, or do mental work, they will experience uncomfortable symptoms such as back pain for a long time. Therefore, they can nourish the kidneys by massaging some key parts of the waist.

Among them, there is an important kidney-tonifying acupuncture point on the human body's waist and back, just below the second lumbar spinous process, - Shenshu point, which is an important point on the kidney meridian. Regular massage of the Shenshu acupoint can effectively dredge the meridians and enhance the circulation of qi and blood in the waist. It plays an important role in eliminating lumbar muscle fatigue and relieving lumbar pain. In the long run, it can make the waist flexible, strong and powerful.

When massaging the Shenshu point, we need to rub the palms to warm them up first, and then press or stick them on the Shenshu point. It is appropriate to feel a sore and swollen feeling at the point. After massaging for about 3 minutes, you will find a feeling of heat at the Shenshu point.

3. Taixi Point

The kidneys are the source of life, and the body's yin and yang energy all originate from here. Taixi acupoint is the original acupoint of the kidney meridian and an important acupoint through which the kidney meridian's vital energy flows. Therefore, regular massage of the Taixi acupoint can serve the purpose of tonifying the kidneys.

When massaging the Taixi acupoint, you need to pay attention to a certain time. 17:00 to 19:00 in the afternoon is the most active time for this acupoint, so massaging the Taixi acupoint at this time can have a good stimulating effect. In addition, when massaging, it is best to feel soreness and swelling in this area, and preferably numbness. Each massage lasts about 3 minutes.

2. Daily methods of nourishing the kidneys

1. Get enough sleep

Many people nowadays have bad habits such as staying up late, which directly leads to lack of sleep. Nighttime is an important period for the kidneys and other organs to repair and regulate. If they cannot be in a deep sleep state at this time, it will be detrimental to the biochemistry of qi and blood, and will also cause adverse harm to the kidneys. Therefore, ensuring adequate sleep and avoiding staying up late for long periods of time are also important factors in maintaining kidney essence.

2. Drinking water nourishes the kidneys

Water is the key to maintaining human life activities. Only when the human body has sufficient water can it better promote metabolism and allow toxins in the body to be excreted better and faster. If there is insufficient water, it will cause toxin retention. The kidneys are important detoxification organs, so excessive consumption of toxins will increase the burden on the kidneys, thus endangering kidney health. Therefore, you must drink water in time in your daily life, and never wait until you are thirsty to drink water.

3. Avoid long-term medication

As the saying goes, "All medicines are poisonous to some extent." Whether it is Chinese medicine or Western medicine, they all have certain medicinal effects and will cause harm to the human body. Some medicines themselves will damage the kidneys, so you need to pay attention when taking them. Therefore, when you need to take certain medicines for a long time, it is best to consult a relevant doctor first.

4. Pay attention to eating habits

Reasonable eating habits can also help men avoid kidney damage. Eating more fruits and vegetables and reducing the intake of high-oil and high-fat foods can easily avoid kidney damage. In addition, the taste of the food is equally important. Food that is too salty or too sweet can cause kidney damage.

In addition, fried foods and barbecue are favorites of many men, but if you want to protect your kidneys, it is best to avoid this eating habit, because doing so can also cause kidney disease. Therefore, if men want to protect their kidneys and avoid disease, it is important to maintain good eating habits.

5. Prevent urinary diseases

Preventing urinary diseases is also very important for protecting the kidneys, because the kidneys are one of the core parts of the urinary system. If a person suffers from urinary diseases, the pressure on the kidneys will increase, thereby damaging kidney health. If this continues for a long time, the kidneys will suffer from serious diseases.

In addition, some urinary diseases are caused by bacterial infection. Of course, if you suffer from this disease, if you don't get timely treatment, it will cause bacteria to erode the kidneys and also make the kidneys sick. Therefore, it is necessary to pay great attention to bacterial urinary diseases. Only in this way can we help men better protect their kidney health.

6. Pay attention to exercise

Reasonable exercise can help men better protect their health, and it is also beneficial to the kidneys, because the kidneys also have the function of detoxification. Men can help the body detoxify and reduce the pressure on the kidneys through exercise. In this way, the kidneys can get enough rest and work better, which can reduce the chance of disease.

7. Keep your waist warm

The human waist is easily affected by cold, and I believe everyone has heard the saying that "the waist is the home of the kidneys". Therefore, it is important to keep the waist warm and avoid getting cold. Because after the cold air invades the waist, it will invade the kidneys, thereby inducing kidney disease. In addition, do not overwork. Overwork will cause back pain, which will also harm the kidneys.

8. Control blood pressure

Reasonable blood pressure control can avoid kidney problems, especially today when hypertension is becoming more and more common in younger and younger age groups. We should know that high blood pressure can easily accelerate the process of kidney disease and cause the kidneys to suffer from various diseases. Therefore, controlling blood pressure is an important means to help us protect the kidneys and prevent kidney disease.

9. Never drink tea after drinking alcohol

Men can never live without alcohol, but please note, never drink tea after drinking alcohol, because doing so will cause the alcohol to enter the kidneys without being completely broken down by the body, and the kidneys have no particularly effective way to deal with the stimulation of alcohol. Doing this frequently will lead to kidney disease, so everyone should pay more attention to this.
