Once the kidneys get damaged, it becomes a challenge to control the progress of the disease. With certain precautionary measures, the onset of CKD can be prevented or delayed.
1
Diet control
Follow a low salt, low-fat diet
3
Sleep well
Get enough sleep and rest
4
Stay hydrated
Drink adequate water to keep cleansing the kidneys
5
Eat fresh
Avoid packaged food or items with preservatives
6
Regular exercise
Include at least 30 minutes of exercise in your daily schedule; even a brisk walk is good.
7
Avoid self-medication
Over the counter drugs and painkillers must be avoided as they can harm the kidneys as a side effect. Always consult a doctor before taking medicines.
8
Limit alcohol/tobacco intake
Excessive drinking and smoking can result in dire effects on kidneys
