INTRODUCTION Digestion and excretion are two important processes of our body that are also complementary to each other. While digestion is the consumption of food and its conversion into nutrients, excretion is their separation from waste.

HOW THE KIDNEY FUNCTION It is blood that carries and circulates nutrients, water and oxygen throughout the body. It collects waste from each cell of the body and gives it to the kidneys so that they can select nutrients from it and discard the waste in the form of urine.

FACTORS DEGRADING KIDNEY HEALTH The kidneys have to deal with a lot of fluid all the time. The fluid consists of blood, which carries vitamins, minerals and cholesterol. This sometimes takes a toll on the kidneys’ health and results in poor kidney function.

PRACTICE 3: FRUITS AND JUICES Some fruits are especially beneficial for the kidneys, like watermelon, cranberries, apples and blueberries.

They should be added to milkshakes, smoothies, salads or eaten raw more often.

PRACTICE 4: YOGA ASANA Some yoga asanas specifically target the kidneys and enhance their function.

They are: Veerasana, the hero’s pose; Bhujangasana, the cobra’s pose; and Dhanurasana, the bow’s pose. Apart from these poses, a yoga regime should be adapted so that disorders do not get a chance to develop, in the first place.

PRACTICE 5: GINGER THERAPY This technique is an ayurvedic procedure for relieving painful, inflammatory and toxic conditions of the kidneys. This eases pain related to kidney stones and all kidney conditions in general. However, you should not attempt to do this alone because of the possibility of scalding.

SOME ADDITIONAL TIPS TO SUPPORT THESE PRACTICES Along with these practices, you should drink enough water, consume plenty of raw fruits and vegetables, and include healthy fats in your diet, such as nuts and seeds. In this way you can even preserve your kidneys for as long as you live.
