It’s World Kidney Day: Protect Your Kidneys by aidainc(f): 11:51am On Mar 14, 2013 |
March 14, 2013 marks the ‘World Kidney Day’. The theme for this year is “STOP Kidney Attack! Protect your kidneys, find out how” The Kidney is a very essential body organ because of the numerous roles it plays. Each kidney is roughly the size of a human fist. The main job of your kidneys is to remove toxins and excess water from our blood. Kidneys also help to control our blood pressure, to produce red blood cells and to keep our bones healthy. Your kidneys control blood stream levels of many minerals and molecules including sodium and potassium, and help to control blood acidity. Every day your kidneys carefully control the salt and water in your body so that your blood pressure remains the same. Did you know? Your Kidneys: • Make urine • Remove wastes and extra fluid from your blood • Control your body's chemical balance • Help control your blood pressure • Help keep your bones healthy • Help you make red blood cells EARLY DETECTION & SCREENING Know that kidney diseases are harmful and common but it also treatable. The key to survival is early detection and regular screening. GET TESTED Get your blood and urine tested. Your blood is tested to measure creatinine content and estimate GFR (Glomerular Filter Rate) and your urine is tested to measure creatinine and albumin excretion. YOU SHOULD BE SCREENED: - If you have been diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus or Hypertension - If you are obese - If you smoke - If you are 50 years of age and above - If you have a family history of Kidney Disease, Diabetes Mellitus or Hypertension Ignorance isn't bliss! Be aware, check your kidneys!! There would be FREE KIDNEY SCREENING at the Freedom Park, Lagos Island, Lagos, Nigeria. 3 Likes
