Patients with hyperlipidemia, on the basis of diet control, often need to take certain drugs to control blood lipids. Kidney is the body to clear the body of metabolites and some waste, toxic organs, especially in the New Year, the face of the rich table, gluttonous meal is inevitable, the burden of the kidney will be correspondingly increased, the protection of the kidney is very important.
