Patient's question:
I haven't been feeling well recently, and I've been a bit swollen. I have no energy all over. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. Could kidney deficiency cause insomnia?Doctor's answer:
Kidney deficiency may potentially affect normal deep sleep, easily leading to poor sleep quality, lower back pain, weakness, fatigue, and poor mental state. Therefore, it is recommended to consume more nourishing foods and combine them with dietary therapy for regulation. Consider preparing soups with He Shou Wu and Goji berries, which can be complemented with warming foods like lamb. Alternatively, engage in more aerobic exercise and pay attention to regulating the frequency of sexual activity.
