Did you know your kidneys filter all of your blood up to 25 times a day? It is important to learn how you can protect these two bean-shaped organs that work around the clock for you. 

Our kidneys work hard to keep our bodies on the right track, we need to do our part to know them and keep them healthy! Let’s embrace a kidney healthy lifestyle by: 

  • Eating healthy foods
  • Being active for 30 minutes each day
  • Aiming for seven to eight hours of sleep at night
  • Quitting smoking and limiting your alcohol intake
  • Maintaining a healthy blood pressure
