Nutritional regimen helps gym goers gain muscle while keeping kidneys healthy

HUYỀN TRANG (NGUỒN: Times of India) |

When exercising at the gym, the body needs a lot of energy and protein to nourish muscles. However, if you eat improperly, your kidneys will be overloaded.

1. Eat just enough, don't abuse

Dates help develop muscles but eating too much, especially from red meat, eggs, milk, ... will overload the kidneys.

Therefore, Nnen combines with plant protein from beans, nuts, whole grains to reduce the burden on the kidneys.

2. Eat less salt

High in salt increases blood pressure, damaging the kidneys. Only eat less than 5g of salt/day (about 1 teaspoon), while limiting fast food and canned goods.

3. Supplement kidney-friendly fruits and vegetables

Vegetables considered kidney-friendly include apples, blueberries, cauliflower, red bell peppers, pineapple or garlic, etc.

On the contrary, foods such as bananas, avocados, spinach and soft drinks with dark carbonate content are rich in potassium and phosphorus, so they should be limited.

4. Use good fats

Prioritize olive oil, flaxseed oil, avocado oil. These oils help fight inflammation and are good for the heart and kidneys.

5. Eat foods rich in antioxidants

Foods rich in antioxidants such as pomegranate, blueberries, watermelon or watermelon not only help the body reduce oxidative stress but also contribute to stabilizing blood pressure and strengthening the "shield" to protect the kidneys.

6. Drink enough water

When exercising at the gym, the body loses a lot of sweat, so the kidneys need enough water to excrete waste. Drink according to your needs and feel thirsty, avoid forcing yourself to drink too much because it can dilute blood salt.
