Summarize the following:
Water helps to cleanse your kidneys, which can help to keep your kidneys healthy. Try to drink six to eight 8-ounce glasses of water every day (1.5 to 2 liters). If you have had kidney stones, then you will need to drink more water. Aim for eight to 12 8-ounce glasses (about 2 to 3 liters) of water per day. If you are on a fluid-restricted diet, then follow your doctor’s instructions for how much fluid you can have. A high sodium intake can also make kidney damage worse and make it harder for your kidneys to repair themselves. Aim for less than 2,300 mg per day if you are under the age of 51, and less than 1,500 mg per day if you are over 51. To restrict your sodium intake you will need to get into the habit of reading food labels. Salt is often high in processed foods, so choose whole foods whenever possible. Processed foods that may be high in sodium include:  Pizza Deli meats and bacon Pasta Frozen dinners Canned soup Cheese Fast food In someone with healthy kidneys, 3,500 to 4,500mg of potassium is the recommended amount; however, in someone with poor kidney function who is on a potassium restricted diet, 2,000 mg is the recommended daily intake.  Check with your doctor if you are not sure if you are supposed to follow a potassium restricted diet. Foods that are high in potassium include bananas, potatoes, tomatoes, carrots, squash, cabbage, dried fruits, grains, and salt substitutes. If you need to limit your potassium intake, then you will need to check the potassium content of all of the foods that you eat and keep track of your potassium intake. Try to get about 20 to 30% of your calories from protein. Eating too much protein can damage your kidneys, but you still need protein for your body’s basic processes.  Steer clear of high-protein diets if you already have poor kidney function. High-protein diets can harm your kidneys.  Choose lean proteins such as fish, skinless chicken, beans, and low-fat cheese. Some herbs and vitamins can damage your kidneys, so it is important to use caution when considering an herb or supplement. Make sure that you check with your doctor first before you start taking any herbs or other supplements.

summary: Drink lots of water (if permitted). Reduce your sodium intake. Limit potassium. Eat a moderate amount of protein. Check with your doctor before taking any supplements.

Keyframes mark exact points in time when changes are to occur to a layer's properties. This function, which is represented by a little stopwatch, allows you to animate your composite graphics.  Move your red “Current Time Indicator” line to the moment at which you would like to activate a keyframe. Select a layer from the “List” tab. Expand the layer's “Transform” or “Contents” tab. Click on the stopwatch icon next to the property you wish to alter. This will record a keyframe at the current time indicator. A yellow dot or a greater than/less than symbols will appear on the timeline to mark the keyframe. To see your keyframes on the timeline, lasso the layers you wish to view and press “U.” To move a keyframe, select a keyframe symbol on the timeline by lassoing it and then drag it to its new location. You may also copy and paste keyframes.

summary: Set up keyframes.

Remove your shoes and socks and sit cross-legged on a bed or a yoga mat. Try to relax your body in an effort to prepare yourself to begin the healing process. You may either perform your own reflexology treatment or work with a partner who can apply pressure in the spots that are more difficult to reach. Relieve neck tension by applying pressure to the joints or "necks" of your 8 little toes. If you are experiencing tension in one area of your neck, you will feel tension or a slight discomfort in one of your corresponding toes. Your entire head is represented in your two big toes, so apply pressure to them to relieve headache tension.  Use your fingers to apply steady, firm pressure to the backs of your toes, one at a time. Continue until you feel the tension in your neck begin to dissolve and the pressure leave your head. Stress often manifests in the form of a chest that feels tight. You may feel like you're having trouble taking a good, deep breath. Apply pressure to the balls of your feet to alleviate chest discomfort. This area contains the reflexes to your lungs, airways, heart, thymus gland, chest and shoulders. If you tend to feel stress in your stomach, which many might describe as having "the jitters," press the reflex points on your instep (the non-weight bearing area on the bottom of your foot) to relieve discomfort to your abdominal organs. This is the area you would want to work on if you are feeling "gut-wrenching" emotions, or if you wake up with a feeling of heaviness in the pit of your stomach. If your legs, arms and shoulders feel tight with stress, use reflexology to loosen up. Discharge tension in your arms and legs by applying pressure to the reflex points on the outer edges of your feet. Try applying pressure to a combination of all of the reflex points to relieve insomnia. Stress is often the main cause behind insomnia, and if worries, fears and tension tend to keep you up at night, you can relieve your insomnia using the same reflex points you would use to relieve tension and stress:  Apply pressure to the backs of your toes to ease pressure in your neck and head. Apply pressure to the balls of your feet to help you breathe more easily. Apply pressure to your instep to help your stomach calm down. Apply pressure to the outer edges of your feet to loosen tight muscles.
summary: Get in a comfortable position. Relieve tension in your neck and head. Help your chest relax. Relieve stomach tension. Loosen your limbs. Help yourself sleep.
