I hardly take pain relieving drugs, even if I want to, it's once or twice in a month,not that I don't engage in stressful work, but because I believe that having enough rest through sleep is a natural pain medicine, and that excessive intake of those drugs might cost my kidney,liver,stomach and overall health overtime!

Do you want to know how drugs like Ibuprofen, naproxen,diclofenac,celecoxib and aspirin may affect your health?

Let's have it...

The above drugs belong to a drug class known as Non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs–NSAIDs in brief. They are specially designed to arrest pains primarily caused by inflammation,they work by stopping the action of cycloxygenase enzyme that produces a chemical called prostaglandin which causes pain in the body.

What kills you in one way may save you in another way!

Prostaglandins which cause pains in the body also help to protect your stomach,and as well support your kidney function–that is why one can easily develop ulcer or kidney failure after a prolong use of pain reliving drugs.

Do you know that ibuprofen,diclofenac, naproxen,aspirin,in fact,all NSAIDs do the same work of pain relieving?

Why then do you go to chemist and ask them to mix up all the drugs for you?

Do you want to buy more sickness with your money?

We're used to this mixing of drugs with the myth that swallowing enough quantity of tablets or capsules into the stomach will fasten our recovery,but in reality,it may land us into more complicated health problems.

Next time you have pains in any part of your body, don't mix drugs,ask the medicine dealer to give you just a single pain reliever,diclofenac or any other one, and you don't need to take it for too long,if pains persist after two or three tablets,try to see a doctor.

If you keep mixing hundreds of drugs for pains, malaria or any other health challenge,don't forget you're killing yourself slowly without knowing.

Drug is drug and not food!

Hope this helps!

One of the reasons I don't take hot drinks like beer and all is because of my health,I tried it and it got my abdomen upset,then I put a permanent stop to that. Even peer pressure couldn't lure me into that because my health means the world to me.

Please prioritize your health over what you eat, it's very important, don't joke with your health!

I've been thinking a loud lately to pinpoint the possible causes of the hike in kidney failure.

Possible Causes:

–Dehydration ( Lack of water in the body)

–Alcohol (Taking too much beer may contribute)

–Food preservatives,additives and colors used in juces,fanta,coke,pepsi,and other industrially processed foods, examples are phosphates and sodium benzoate.

–PAHs( Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) found in grilled and charred foods like grilled chicken.

–Calcium carbide used to hasten the ripening of fruits like banana, plantain, mango, orange etc. Know the source of the fruits you consume, what people do behind the scenes just to make money nowadays is quite outrageous.

–Seasonings like benny, chicken flavor, kitchen glory,onga etc. should be avoided by all means.

–Chemical residue from herbicides may have entered the food chain.

– Drug abuse (Say no to self medication, always follow doctor's prescription).

– Blood pressure and blood sugar are risk factors and should be regularly checked.

Everything is not meant for your consumption,think health before you feed your stomach anything!

Lifestyle changes may help reduce the rate of kidney failure in the society. What we consume daily may negatively impact our health overtime.

Kidney health tips:

– Stay hydrated: Drinking enough water (not less than 3 litres daily) will help your kidneys to perform it's blood filtration function seamlessly.

Note: Drinks like fanta,coke,sprite,beer, and the like are not substitute for natural water.

– Avoid drug abuse: Prolong use of some drugs like NSAIDs, DIURETICS and ANTIBIOTICS could lead to kidney failure.
Keep to doctor's prescription,self medication is very dangerous, and should be avoided at all cost.

–Limit your intake of processed and canned food with chemical preservatives:

Excessive consumption of chemically preserved food would overtime cost not just your kidney's health,but also your overall health. Natural food like fruits, vegetables,nuts and other locally made food are the best. Excessive amount of seasonings like white maggi,onga, chicken flavor,kitchen glory,etc., should be totally avoided and replaced with Ogiri,Ugba.

–Keep an eye on your rate of alcohol,fanta,coke,sprite, Caffeine, energy drinks and hard drugs intake, totally avoid all these,or reduce to the barest minimum for your health sake!

– Constantly check your blood pressure and blood sugar levels as they also determine your kidneys health.

– Regularly go for kidney function test as early disease detection could help ease treatment and quicken recovery!

Our health is our strength, it's the bedrock upon which all life activities are built!

Stay health conscious!

KIDNEY FAILURE–THE MOST LATELY MENTIONED Health ISSUE In The EASTERN NIGERIA!

WHAT ARE The KIDNEYS?

The Kidneys are two bean-shaped organs located at either sides of the spinal cord, sitting below the ribcage.

FUNCTIONS Of The KIDNEY:

The kidneys perform a vital role in blood filtration–filtering through your blood once an hour to get rid of waste products like urea,creatinine and uric acid in the form of urine, while maintaining electrolytes balance.

It implies that if anything happens to your kidney and it lost its natural ability to filter out toxic waste products from your blood,your body would need an artificial system (DIALYSIS MACHINE) that can take up role of cleaning your blood until the kidneys are capable to resume work probably after successful treatment or kidney TRANSPLANT, and until you know how much it costs to be on dialysis for just an hour, you'll keep playing with your kidney and overall health.

WHO Is At High Risk Of Kidney Failure?

–People with diabetes and high blood pressure are at high risk of kidney failure.

–People that abuse certain medications such as DIURETICS,NSAIDS, ANTIBIOTICS etc., that are capable of causing kidney failure especially if used for a long time or out of doctors prescription are at high risk of kidney failure.

–People with dehydration (lack of water in the body) are at high risk of (kidney stones).

–People that are used to smoking and taking various hard medications are at high risk of developing Chronic kidney diseases (CKD)

–People that are obsessed with processed foods and drinks, that always find it hard to eat natural foods like vegetables, fruits,nuts and water are also at high risk of kidney failure.

CARE FOR YOUR KIDNEY

–Stay hydrated: drinking enough water helps your kidneys to perfectly perform its filtration role.

–Avoid too much processed and canned foods, stick to natural foods like vegetables, fruits and nuts.

– Periodically check your blood pressure and blood sugar since they're risk factors of kidney failure.

– Avoid drug abuse, take every medication as prescribed by the doctor,say no to smoking, stay drug free.

– Quarterly run kidney function test to know the health state of your kidney, since early disease detection can help a great deal in saving the kidney from further damage.

Maintaining your health and preventing diseases may be costly,but you may sell all you have and may even borrow just to regain your health in the hospital, and sadly, most times one may live the rest of one's life managing what could have been prevented.

Stay conscious of what you eat,not everything is consumable,not that it will kill you immediately you eat it,but it may impact your overall health negatively over a time period.
