1. Optimum protein intake is priority. Excess protein can damage the kidney.

2. It is also important to maintain a healthy blood pressure. This is possible by avoiding processed and fried foods, following a fitness-oriented lifestyle and consuming a good proportion of fruits and vegetables.

3. Table salt or sprinkling salt on top is your worst enemy. Total requirement of salt through the day is 1 tsp. Very unknowingly, we end up consuming more than this.

4. Maintaining glycemic control is also important. High quantities of sugars damage the kidney.

5. Don’t forget to hydrate. Drink 2-3 litres of water daily

6. Avoid taking over-the-counter drugs as much as possible. Try home remedies from the kitchen for day to day issues. Small issues can also be prevented by following a fitness regime.
