Do you know that by taking out just 5 minutes a day, you can protect your body from major diseases? According to experts, by focusing on some simple things for 5–10 minutes, you can keep your liver and kidneys healthy for a long time and can also protect yourself from serious conditions like heart failure. Let's know how these small changes can protect your body from major diseases.
5-Minute Fixes to Save Liver and KidneysDrink lukewarm water as soon as you wake up in the morning; it helps in flushing out toxins from the body. It reduces the burden on the kidneys and helps in keeping the liver clean. Sitting for too long reduces blood flow, and toxins accumulate. Walking for a short while keeps the liver and kidneys active.
Avoid excess salt and sugarEating too much salt increases pressure on the kidneys. Sugar and processed food accumulate fat in the liver. Reduce the intake of salt and sugar in your daily diet. Think for 5 minutes whether medicine or alcohol is really necessary. Alcohol and unnecessary medicines cause the most damage to the liver.
Deep breathing or pranayamaTake deep breaths for 2–3 minutes; this increases oxygen supply. It strengthens the liver's detox process and the kidneys' filtering capacity. Eat one fruit a day (apple, papaya, watermelon, coconut water). These are rich in antioxidants and water. Keep the liver clean and the kidneys hydrated.
