Don’t Hold It In
Holding your pee is a major cause of kidney problems, believe it or not. According to Dr. Cheamandeep Bali of Toronto Naturopathic Health Clinic, ignoring nature’s call causes a slew of health issues. The longer urine remains in your system, the more bacteria it produces. When bacteria enter your kidneys, you’re in big trouble, according to Dr. Bali.
According to urologist Mark Gordon, most people use the restroom eight to ten times per day. You may have to hold your urine at times, but don’t make it a habit. If you have to leave, you have to leave.
