Kidney is the most important and smallest organ in the human body. The kidney is an organ that plays a very important role in health, performing many complex functions. Every 30 minutes, the kidneys filter the body’s blood and remove waste products, toxins, and fluids. Kidney function is affected in many ways in our daily life.
Some wrong changes in lifestyle and diet also cause the kidney’s efficiency to decrease. Today, the number of kidney patients is increasing day by day. Kidney diseases occur not only in the elderly but also in children. There are many causes of chronic kidney disease. Chronic kidney disease occurs when both kidneys in the human body become completely damaged and are unable to filter the blood.
When the kidneys do not function properly, the amount of fluid and waste in the body increases significantly, leading to cardiovascular disease and stroke. Chronic disease also leads to problems like diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity. Kidney disease is called the silent killer because there are no obvious symptoms in the early stages of the disease.
But when the problem of kidney disease becomes severe, some symptoms become apparent. Some of the symptoms are difficulty in breathing, persistent headache, presence of blood in the urine, weight loss, excessive appetite, bloating and fatigue. Watch the video for more details.
