Only when the kidneys function normally can the internal environment of the human body be stable, so protecting kidney health is something we all need to care about.
Kidney health is closely related to overall health. Because the kidney is the most basic organ of metabolism, detoxification, hormone secretion, and regulation of the body's water and acid balance. Experts point out that having these three manifestations at night means that the kidney is in a healthy state.
