It is believed that housewives using lemon properly in family cuisine can support kidney function, especially in maintaining the balance of water and minerals in the body.
Lemons are high in vitamin C and citric acid. Citric acid plays an important role in increasing citrate levels in urine. Citrate is a substance that helps inhibit the formation of kidney stones - one of the common problems related to kidney function. Housewives should prepare diluted lemon juice for family members to help contribute to reducing the risk of calcium crystallization, thereby supporting healthy kidney protection.
Another way to eat lemon that is good for the kidneys that housewives should know is to mix diluted lemon juice with warm or cool water, without adding or only adding very little sugar. Drinking lemon juice in the morning or scattered throughout the day helps replenish water, supporting the filtration and excretion of kidney waste. Providing enough water is always the top priority for kidney function.
However, some housewives overuse lemon with the thought "the more the better". Lemon is high in acidity, if you drink lemon juice too thickly or too often, it can cause stomach irritation, affect tooth enamel and cause the body to lose the acid-alkali balance. If someone in the family has a history of stomach disease, the use of lemon needs to be especially careful.
Let me tell the housewife that lemon should be combined in a healthy overall diet.
Eating more green vegetables, limiting salt, reducing processed foods and maintaining a regular lifestyle will help your kidneys become healthier than just relying on one type of food. Lemons only play a supporting role and cannot replace other good habits.
