Introduction: Men must pay attention to liver and kidney health. The male body is prone to problems in these two areas, which are often caused by poor daily habits. So, what should be done about these health issues? Where can we start to protect the liver and kidneys?
Excessive Drinking
Expert recommendation: The best way to protect the liver is to quit alcohol. If you get drunk, it is recommended to drink tea made from kudzu flowers.
Kudzu flower is the flower of the kudzu root. It has the effect of sobering up and can be used to make tea to relieve alcohol intoxication.
If you eat some fruits while drinking, you can slightly reduce the harm alcohol does to the body. For daily liver protection, you can try white chrysanthemum tea and goji berry tea. Both white chrysanthemum and goji berries have the effect of clearing and protecting the liver. Buddha's hand flower and rose can soothe the liver and regulate qi, and are also good for making tea. In addition, men who frequently drink should eat more fruits high in vitamin C, such as oranges and tangerines. Vitamin B can protect the digestive system and can also be supplemented in moderation.
In terms of diet, be careful to avoid eating too much fish and meat, as these are too greasy and can easily damage the liver.

Heavy Smokers
It is a well-known fact that smoking damages the lungs, but many people may not know that after harmful substances in cigarettes are absorbed into the blood, they can also cause cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and high blood pressure. Of course, smokers often cough because the harmful substances in cigarettes pollute the mouth and throat. So, smokers, you should quit smoking as soon as possible.
To protect the throat, many people's first thought is probably the Malva nut, but in fact, the Malva nut only has a moisturizing effect. What is recommended is to drink water infused with monk fruit.
Method: Take a monk fruit about the size of a table tennis ball and crush it with a small hammer. Divide it into eight equal parts, using one part as a day's worth of tea. Soak it in water and drink until the flavor is gone. The taste of monk fruit is both bitter and sweet, not very pleasant, but it has a good effect of clearing the throat and soothing the vocal cords. In addition, lily, radish soup, steered pear with rock sugar and Fritillaria, and ginkgo can relieve coughs and reduce phlegm, and are good lung-nourishing foods that are worth a try.

Gaming Addicts
Men who sit in front of a computer all day to疯狂通关 (crazy game-passing) and car owners who drive for long periods both suffer from overuse of the eyes and prolonged sitting. Don't think that staring at a computer all day only harms your eyes. Traditional Chinese medicine has a saying: "Prolonged viewing harms the liver" and "Prolonged sitting harms the bones." For such men, experts remind: exercise more and work out more.
Expert recommendation: Whether using a computer or driving, both are very strenuous on the eyes. Therefore, it is recommended that people who use their eyes for a long time drink more chrysanthemum tea and goji berry tea, which are known for clearing the liver and brightening the eyes. You can also eat more carrots and vitamin A tablets to protect your vision and prevent eye diseases. For the issue of "prolonged sitting harming the liver," gaming addicts and drivers can refer to the health diet plan of frequent drinkers, eating more fruits high in vitamin C. In addition, people who sit for a long time are prone to weight gain and easily develop hyperlipidemia. This group of people needs to drink some tea that can lower blood pressure, regulate lipids, and aid in weight loss. Try bitter holly tea and cassia seed tea for good results.
Health requires care, and the same goes for liver and kidney health. The methods of care just differ depending on the situation. Now, we are providing a detailed explanation for men's specific situations. I believe everyone has a better understanding after reading the above information.

Five Typical Signs of Liver Damage
Sign 1: Getting Drunk Easily
Some people usually have a high alcohol tolerance, but now they feel "drunk" after just a little. This sign indicates that your liver function has declined and the liver is damaged. The liver cannot completely break down the alcohol metabolite acetaldehyde.
Sign 2: Increased Acne
The luteal hormone in the human body promotes sebum secretion. The liver can destroy the luteal hormone and regulate hormonal balance. Therefore, reduced liver function will increase sebum secretion, ultimately leading to an outbreak of acne.
Sign 3: Wounds are Prone to Suppurating and Infection
The liver plays an important role in human metabolism. If liver function is impaired, skin regeneration will be hindered. In addition, a decrease in the liver's detoxification function can easily lead to bacterial infections in wounds.

Sign 4: Red Nose
The so-called "red nose" is formed by the dilation of capillaries at the tip of the nose. Although a "red nose" is not necessarily caused by liver damage, women are prone to it when their liver function decreases and their hormones are imbalanced.
Sign 5: Dark Complexion
The liver plays an important role in iron metabolism. Normally, the liver stores iron. If liver cells are damaged, the iron from the liver cells will flow into the blood, increasing the iron content in the blood and leading to a dark complexion. This symptom is most likely to appear in men and post-menopausal women. Therefore, when you notice the sign of a dark complexion, you must be vigilant for liver damage and take timely measures to protect your liver.
