Not the best everyday habit.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regular consumption of sugary soft drinks can add a significant amount of <strong>added sugar<\/strong> to your diet. Some types of soft drinks may also be associated with an increased risk of kidney stones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If soft drinks have become part of your everyday routine, consider reducing them gradually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2728 <strong>BETTER HABIT:<\/strong> Make water your main drink and keep sugary beverages for occasional consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\">\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">02 \u2014 JUNK FOOD EVERY DAY<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Your kidneys are affected by your overall diet too.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frequent consumption of fast food, packaged snacks and highly processed meals can result in a diet high in <strong>sodium and other less desirable nutrients<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A high-sodium diet can increase the amount of calcium released into urine, potentially contributing to calcium-based kidney stones in people who are susceptible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2728 <strong>BETTER HABIT:<\/strong> Add more fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains and minimally processed foods to your meals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\">\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">03 \u2014 TOO MUCH SUGAR<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>That extra sweetness can add up faster than you think.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regularly consuming large amounts of added sugar \u2014 particularly through <strong>sweetened drinks, desserts and processed foods<\/strong> \u2014 can work against overall metabolic health and may contribute to factors associated with kidney-stone risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t have to completely eliminate sweet foods. The goal is to avoid making high-sugar foods and drinks an everyday habit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2728 <strong>BETTER HABIT:<\/strong> Reduce added sugar and choose naturally sweet whole fruits more often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\">\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">04 \u2014 NOT DRINKING ENOUGH WATER<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>One of the simplest habits can make a big difference.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you don\u2019t drink enough fluids, your urine becomes more concentrated. This can allow certain minerals and salts to become more concentrated and form crystals, which can contribute to kidney stone formation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your fluid needs vary depending on your body, activity level, climate and health conditions, so there isn\u2019t one perfect amount for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2728 <strong>BETTER HABIT:<\/strong> Drink water regularly throughout the day and pay extra attention to hydration when you\u2019re exercising, sweating or spending time in hot weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-671c04ea default uagb-is-root-container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-8c975fa2\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-9-16 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"These Foods are Exhausting Your Kidneys Daily | Sooprs.com #health #facts #shortsfeed\" width=\"563\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fxP4dbKJLY0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\">\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>MAKE YOUR KIDNEY HEALTH A DAILY PRIORITY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t need to completely change your lifestyle overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start with a few simple choices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udca7 <strong>Drink more water<\/strong><br>\ud83e\udd57 <strong>Choose more whole foods<\/strong><br>\ud83e\uddc2 <strong>Limit excess salt<\/strong><br>\ud83c\udf6c <strong>Reduce added sugar<\/strong><br>\ud83e\udd64 <strong>Cut back on sugary soft drinks<\/strong><br>\ud83c\udf54 <strong>Keep highly processed food occasional<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>YOUR KIDNEYS WORK FOR YOU EVERY DAY.
