• How do I know if my kidneys are doing fine?

    Here are some ways by which one can be assured that their kidneys are working properly:

    One should monitor the color of their urine and whether there are any abnormal amounts of proteins and other substances. This would be an indication whether or not
    the kidney filters are performing their function normally.

    The urine volume should be measured to see whether there are problems related to
    kidney functioning.

    One can also keep track of any swelling or inflammation in different parts of the body,
    especially in legs and ankles, hands and face. It means that there might be a kidney
    disease problem if there is too much fluid in the body.

    It should also be noted that one˙s blood pressure readings are within the normal range.
    Kidney problems are often associated with high blood pressure.

    One needs to watch his or her blood glucose levels and also to make sure that there is
    enough potassium in the body.

    One should avoid drinking alcohol, using drugs and smoking in order to prevent possible
    kidney diseases.
