Why are the kidneys important?
Your kidneys remove waste and extra fluid from your body. Your kidneys also remove acid that is produced by the cells of your body and maintain a healthy balance of water, salts, and minerals—such as sodium, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium—in your blood. Without this balance, nerves, muscles, and other tissues in your body may not work normally. Your kidneys also make hormones that help:
• control your blood pressure
• make red blood cells
• keep your bones strong and healthy
They are the unsung heroes of your body. Show your appreciation for them today and have a health check.
Optimise your health to take care of your Marvels.
