The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs, the size of a fist and are located just below the rib cage, on either side of your spine.
They perform many important functions in your body:
- Work as filters to remove extra fluid from your body and waste from your blood and produce about 1.5-2 litres of urine daily, detoxifying your body
- 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.
- Help the production of red blood cells and maintain bone health
- Play an important role in lymphatic drainage and general function and also in the health of the immune system and should be considered as general regulators for overall healthy balance.
- The triangle-shaped adrenal glands perched atop each kidney release hormones which control your blood pressure, metabolism and your body’s response to stress
Thank your kidneys for all the hard work they do and try your best to keep them healthy. Here are some suggestions for taking care of them:
- Stay hydrated by drinking enough water regularly throughout the day. It helps your kidneys to function properly and remain healthy
- Maintain a balanced diet
- Exercise regularly
- Avoid taking frequent anti-inflammatory medication
- Use caution when taking supplements and herbal remedies. Excessive amounts of certain vitamin supplements and some herbal extracts may be harmful to your kidneys
- Talk to your doctor about any vitamins or herbal supplements you are thinking of taking
