Renal Wellness 101: Taking Care of Your Kidneys
The kidneys, the two little bean-shaped organs that sit behind the stomach, are responsible for filtering and balancing the components of the blood. They’re a major part of the body’s detoxification system, and they perform functions such as toxin removal, pH balance, and regulation of blood sugar and blood pressure. Understanding how your kidneys work, what habits may be causing them harm, and how to maintain their health is an essential component of total body wellness.
