Worst Foods for Kidney: Some foods prove to be poisonous for the kidneys. Here you can know about 5 such foods, whose daily consumption gradually damages the kidneys.
The kidney works to filter toxic substances from the body and maintain the balance of water and minerals in the body. Although the kidney itself is a cleansing organ, sometimes it starts getting damaged due to some foods. Here we are telling you about 5 such foods. If you are consuming it daily or more than required, then be careful.
Salt
Excess salt increases blood pressure, which puts pressure on the kidneys. Most Indians consume more than the WHO recommended 5 grams of salt per day.
Processed Food
Food items available in packets like chips, biscuits, instant noodles, and fast food contain a lot of salt, fat and preservatives. All these things are extremely dangerous for kidney health.
Soft Drinks
Cola and other soft drinks contain high sugar and phosphates, which can cause kidney stones and reduce kidney function.
Red Meat
Excessive consumption of red meat increases waste products such as urea and creatinine in the body, which the kidneys have to work harder to remove. This sometimes causes kidney damage.
Sugar
Excess sugar can cause diabetes, which is the biggest cause of kidney diseases. In such a situation, daily consumption of sweets, biscuits and sweet drinks gradually weakens the kidneys.
