The kidneys are some of the most important organs in the body. Even the Ancient Egyptians knew this.
When embalming a body, they left only the brain and the kidneys in position, because they used to believe that these organs held a higher value.
Today, we know that the kidneys are essential for balancing the body's internal environment.
They help regulate fluid levels and blood pressure, and if they do not work properly, a lot of health problems can arise.
So get checked for #creatinine levels and #kidneyfunction
Do a blood test for creatinine to calculate your estimated glomerular filtration rate.
This number, GFR, tells how well your kidneys are working to remove wastes from your blood.
Knowing what your creatinine levels and GFR are is really important for managing your diet and various other aspects of your life.
Speak with your healthcare provider about getting these tests.
And, if you are not sure if you have kidney disease, remember to get a urine test, right?
Get checked for protein in the urine, because this is one of the earliest signs of kidney disease.
Being diagnosed early means kidney disease can be treated early to keep it from getting worse!
which is really important if you want to improve your kidney health.
