How can you prevent Kidney Disease ??

The primary objective of observing World Kidney Day is to spread awareness around the world on the need for identifying kidney disease as a significant public health problem.
 
Currently Kidney disease affects around 850 million people worldwide and it is projected to become the 5th most common cause of years of life lost globally by 2040.
Kidney disease develops when the kidneys lose their ability to filter waste, toxins, and excess fluids from the body. When kidney disease progresses, it may eventually lead to kidney failure, which requires dialysis or a kidney transplant to maintain life.
The common causes of kidney disease include diabetes, high blood pressure, urine infections, kidney stones, excessive use of pain killers, kidney infection and others. Obesity, lack of physical exercise, not drinking enough water, smoking and family history, are also some of the risk factors.
To prevent kidney disease, it is recommended to take proactive steps to keep your kidneys healthy and prevent the onset of Chronic Kidney Disease. You can protect your kidneys by managing high blood pressure, controlling blood sugar levels, taking healthy food, consuming less salt, drinking adequate amount of water, avoiding excess use of painkillers and reducing stress. In case of urine infections or kidney stones do not neglect them and get them treated at the earliest.
Kidney disease can be prevented and progression to end-stage kidney disease can be delayed with appropriate access to basic diagnostics and early treatment.
 
On this World Kidney Day, let us use this opportunity to spread awareness about the causes of kidney disease and how these can be prevented.
