Adopting a healthy lifestyle is essential to maintaining good urological health and preventing conditions such as kidney stones, urinary incontinence, and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Hydration: Proper hydration helps eliminate toxins accumulated in the bladder and kidneys, reducing the risk of kidney stones. Drinking at least 1.5 to 2 litres of water per day is recommended to promote the proper functioning of your urinary system.
Balanced diet: Eating fibre-rich foods aids digestion, prevents constipation and reduces pressure on the bladder. A balanced diet, low in salt and sugar, limits the risk of developing kidney stones and worsening BPH symptoms.
Physical activity: Regular physical activity helps maintain a healthy weight, reducing the risk of obesity, an aggravating factor for many urological disorders such as BPH or urinary incontinence.
Reduced cancer risk: A healthy lifestyle, including a diet rich in antioxidants, may also help prevent bladder and prostate cancer.
Prevention of urinary tract infections: Drinking regularly and urinating frequently helps eliminate bacteria, which reduces the risk of urinary tract infections.
Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles: Exercises such as Kegel exercises are recommended to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, thereby reducing the risk of incontinence in women and improving erectile function in men.
By adopting these healthy habits, you can significantly reduce your risk of developing urological disorders. For personalized follow-up, contact the Sioufi Urology Private Clinic and schedule a consultation.
