What promotes kidney health?
Your kidneys are bean-shaped organs, each about the size of your fist. They are located near the middle of your back, just below the rib cage. The kidneys are sophisticated reprocessing machines. Every day, your kidneys process about 200 quarts of blood to sift out about 2 quarts of waste products and extra water. The wastes in your blood come from the normal breakdown of active tissues and from the food you eat. Your body uses the food for energy and self-repair. After your body has taken what it needs from the food, waste is sent to the blood. If your kidneys did not remove these wastes, the wastes would build up in the blood and damage your body.
In addition to removing wastes, your kidneys release three important hormones:
- Erythropoietin (eh-RITH-ro-POY-eh-tin), or EPO, which stimulates the bone marrow to make red blood cells
- Renin (REE-nin), which regulates blood pressure
- Active form of vitamin D, which helps maintain calcium for bones and for normal chemical balance in the body
There are a number of ways your kidneys can fail through either abuse or disease. Some of the more common reasons for kidney failures include:
- Diabetic Nephropathy - glucose levels in the blood
- High Blood Pressure - damaging small blood vessels
- Glomerulonephritis - inflammation of the internal kidney structure
- Inherited and Congenital Kidney Diseases - damaging genetic codes passes through family lines
- Poisons and trauma - damaging pain killers and other kidney destroyers
Kidney disease can be very damaging to a person's health and wellness. The biggest problem when dealing with kidney failure occurs because most people are unaware of the problem. Most kidney problems happen slowly. You may have "silent" kidney disease for years. Gradual loss of kidney function is called chronic kidney disease (CKD) or chronic renal insufficiency. People with CKD may go on to permanent kidney failure. They also have a high risk of dying from a stroke or heart attack. A supplement like Kidney Blend promotes kidney health.
Some of the prominent symptoms that a person might experience when dealing with kidney failure include:
- Urinate more often or less often
- Feeling excessively tired or itchy
- Loss of your appetite or experience of nausea and vomiting
- Swollen or numb hands or feet
- Feeling drowsy or having trouble concentrating
- Darkened skin
- Muscle cramps
