Regularly eating spicy foods can be a cause of kidney disease. Because chili, especially green chili, contains oxalic acid, if eaten regularly and in large quantities, oxalic acid will settle in the kidneys. When the concentration is too high, it will damage kidney tissue, even increasing the risk of acute kidney failure.
Therefore, for some groups of people, especially patients with kidney disease, they should try to avoid eating a lot of chili. When diagnosed with oxalate kidney disease, it should be treated immediately.
In addition to eating spicy foods, drinking black tea for a long time can easily damage the kidneys, because tea contains caffeine and a lot of tannic acid, which can easily combine with iron in the body to form an insoluble substance, causing kidney stones.
The purine content in stewed soup is very high, eating it regularly can easily lead to increased uric acid in the blood, which can not only cause acute gout attacks but also damage the kidneys and cardiovascular system.
If you experience edema (including the eyelids, face, limbs or other areas), fatigue, lack of energy; nighttime tieuation, foaming or mixed blood; high blood pressure - especially in young people; nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite... then you should check kidney function as soon as possible. Timely diagnosis and treatment will help prevent the disease from progressing silently and becoming more serious.
