Doctor: Why does staying up late and drinking soft drinks easily cause kidney failure?

Staying up late regularly will cause abnormal immune responses in the body and it is these immune responses that lead to the outbreak of glomerular disease leading to kidney failure.

Many young people have kidney failure after staying up late and drinking soft drinks for a long time.

As Thanh Nien reported, female titkoker TTY (32 years old, living in Ho Chi Minh City) discovered she had stage 3B kidney failure at the age of 29 during a general health check-up. Because she was young and still regularly exercised, played sports , and had fun, she did not believe she had the disease.

Regarding the cause of kidney failure, Ms. Y. said that she liked to eat a lot of grilled meat, so her kidneys could not filter the protein. When she was a student, she studied and worked at the same time, so there were long periods of time when she only slept 2-3 hours each night. In addition, she also had the habit of drinking ice water regardless of cold or hot weather, which led to severe sore throat and affected her kidneys.

Or like the case of NVL (27 years old, living in Tien Giang ) who had nephrotic syndrome since childhood, combined with an unhealthy lifestyle, often working late at night, and irregular eating habits led to kidney failure.

Similarly, Ms. TTNT (27 years old, living in Cu Chi district, Ho Chi Minh City) just had to undergo a kidney transplant after a long battle with end-stage renal failure. Previously, when she was 26 years old, Ms. T. had to fight end-stage renal failure every day. Ms. T. said that she often stayed up late and drank soft drinks instead of water. These habits were maintained from her school days and lasted for many years.

Why staying up late and drinking soft drinks can easily cause kidney failure?

Specialist Doctor 1 Vu Le Anh - Head of the Department of Nephrology, Xuyen A General Hospital said that many young patients with kidney failure are often hospitalized in need of emergency dialysis. Young people have good endurance, so when their bodies have high blood pressure and swollen legs, they often do not pay attention, they are not even aware of the disease until their bodies are tired, have difficulty breathing, are pale and anemic and have to be hospitalized, then the disease is discovered, which is also when the kidneys have already failed severely, and must be completely dependent on artificial kidneys.

In young people, unhealthy living habits such as staying up late and drinking soft drinks regularly unintentionally cause abnormal immune responses in the body. These immune responses support the outbreak of glomerular disease, gradually leading to kidney failure.

"Because energy drinks and carbonated drinks contain substances that are allergic to the body, when consumed regularly they will cause repeated reactions that affect the kidneys and some other organs. At this time, the kidneys excrete too much and the body is allergic, leading to nephritis," Dr. Le Anh analyzed.

In addition, staying up late disrupts the biological rhythm, leading to disruption of the body and immune system. When staying up late is repeated regularly, it will cause abnormal immune responses in the body, and those immune responses lead to the outbreak of glomerular disease, gradually leading to severe kidney failure.

Through that, Dr. Vu Le Anh recommends that young people today need to change their lifestyle to be healthy and scientific , do not let soft drinks, instant noodles, staying up late... "take away" their kidneys. "Every day, we need to drink enough water, have a balanced diet, limit fried foods, get enough sleep and the right biological rhythm of the body, exercise regularly to protect our health as well as protect our kidneys," Dr. Le Anh shared.
