4 things to do before bed to protect healthy liver and kidneys

NGUYỄN LY (THEO XINHUA) |

The liver and kidneys are two organs that take on the role of metabolizing, filtering and eliminating body waste.

Try to go to bed before 11 PM

Staying up late for a long time can disrupt the circadian rhythm, affect the liver's metabolism and impair immune function, thereby increasing the risk of liver damage and affecting kidney health. Maintaining regular sleep hours also helps the body recover more effectively.

Drink moderate water

About 1-2 hours before going to bed, you should drink a moderate amount of water so that your body is not dehydrated at night, and avoid drinking too much right before bedtime because it can cause you to wake up many times to go to the toilet, reducing sleep quality. A continuous and sufficiently deep sleep is an important condition for the organs in the body to function more effectively.

Dinner should also end at least 2-3 hours before bedtime.

Limiting greasy, sugary or alcoholic foods will help the liver reduce metabolic pressure at night. Experts recommend that a diet high in green vegetables, whole grains, fish and lean meat, combined with limiting staying up late and maintaining regular exercise are important factors to protect the liver for a long time.

Spend 10-15 minutes relaxing before bed

Deep breathing, reading books or listening to soft music also helps the body fall asleep more easily. Good sleep quality is not only beneficial for the brain but also supports the liver and kidneys to perform physiological functions effectively.

Experts emphasize that there are no tricks that can "detoxify" the liver or kidneys in just one night. The most important thing is still to maintain a healthy lifestyle, get enough sleep, eat balanced and limit harmful habits such as staying up late, drinking a lot of alcohol or consuming too many processed foods. This is the foundation to help the liver and kidneys stay healthy for a long time.
