Summer Alert: Acute Kidney Injury

Are you spending the hot summer season healthily?

 

 

 

I also exercise and hydrate every day... During the summer, I make sure to take care of myself so as not to overstrain my body.

 

Let's walk 10,000 steps every day, our users.

It's a hot summer, so you might avoid the midday sun, but still, the heat... is endless... it can't be avoided.

However... on hot days, if you sweat a lot and overexert yourself during exercise, you may experience acute kidney injury.

 

I didn't even know I had such a disease...

It's quite surprising information for me, who exercises every day.

 

How important the kidneys are, I am very good at understanding that.

(I've also... experienced kidney-related illnesses... so I understand very well... 😢)

 

Dehydration caused by excessive sweating during the summer can lead to acute kidney injury, where kidney function deteriorates rapidly within hours to days.

 

This is how excessive exercise during the summer damages the kidneys.

 

Our body is composed of a protein called myoglobin, and during prolonged muscle activity like marathon running, the cells are destroyed, leading to rhabdomyolysis, where various components of the muscle enter the bloodstream, which can impair kidney function.

 

 

Avoid strenuous exercise during the summer.

I recommend that you engage in appropriate exercise and maintain adequate hydration.

 

The heat is still continuing.

Stay healthy during the hot summer.
