Anaemia. Prevention and treatment

Anaemia is the manifestation of a disorder in which there is a reduction in the amount of red blood cells in the blood. It can occur due to a loss of these or due to a decrease in their production in the bone marrow for various reasons, with the most common being the lack of iron needed to produce haemoglobin, an iron-rich protein that gives the blood its red colour. This protein allows red blood cells to carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.

Kidney disease

The kidneys benefit from a healthy diet, from a relatively high intake of water and from avoiding tobacco. Regular bowel and bladder movements are also essential. Constipation and delaying urination are both damaging to kidney function. Plain water without anything dissolved in it is necessary for good kidney function, apart from liquids such as milk and broth and drinks such as tea and coffee. The amount of urine a healthy person produces varies depending on how much water they drink, the air temperature, whether they are at rest or doing exercise, etc. A healthy adult would normally required 1 to 2 litres per day. Kidney function does not necessarily improve if excessive water is consumed.

Health tips for patients with complex glomerular disease

Complex glomerular diseases (or glomerulonephritis) are one of the most common causes of end-stage renal disease. The main measure to combat chronic kidney disease is prevention, following dietary guidelines, and early treatment of diseases or situations that may lead to it. In addition, when it is already established and advanced, treatments should be administered that totally or partially replace the functions of the kidneys, a renal replacement therapy.
