Beyond diet, several lifestyle modifications can enhance kidney health and prevent complications associated with glomerulonephritis. Regular physical activity helps control blood pressure, improve cardiovascular health, and maintain a healthy weight. Smoking cessation is crucial, as smoking can accelerate kidney damage and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Limiting alcohol consumption and avoiding non-prescribed medications that can harm the kidneys are also important. Stress management techniques, such as mindfulness and meditation, can help reduce blood pressure and improve overall well-being. These lifestyle changes, coupled with medical treatment, form a comprehensive approach to managing kidney health.
