Taking good care of the kidneys is the key to sexual satisfaction for men. However, due to various reasons, the kidneys are prone to problems, leading to a loss of confidence in men. Little do they know that this is caused by some unhealthy habits in their daily lives. What are the symptoms of kidney deficiency in men? Let's take a look together!
Causes of Kidney Deficiency in Men
1. Overeating
With more opportunities for social dining, modern people tend to eat excessive amounts of "delicious" food. Most of these waste products are excreted through the kidneys, and excessive eating undoubtedly increases the burden on the kidneys.
2. Insufficient water intake
If you don't drink enough water for a long time, the urine volume will decrease, and the concentration of waste products and toxins in the urine will increase. Common kidney problems such as kidney stones and hydronephrosis are closely related to long-term insufficient water intake.
3. Excessive indulgence
Some young people, relying on their good health and physical strength, engage in excessive sexual activities multiple times a day, leading to excessive loss of essence in the kidneys and resulting in kidney deficiency. If one pays attention to eating more kidney-nourishing foods and also takes traditional Chinese medicine to support kidney health, it is believed that there will be no significant discomfort after sexual activities. Even if occasional excessive indulgence occurs, the impact will be minimal.
