Simple Steps That Make
a Big Differenecs
Protecting Your Kidneys
1. Control blood pressure and blood sugar
High blood pressure and diabetes are the leading causes of kidney disease. Keeping these under control—through lifestyle changes and medications when needed—can significantly slow kidney damage.
2. Stay well hydrated
Drinking enough water helps your kidneys flush out waste and stay balanced. The right amount varies for each person, so follow your physician’s guidance, especially if you already have kidney disease.
3. Choose a kidney-friendly lifestyle
Eating a balanced diet, limiting excess salt, staying physically active, and maintaining a healthy weight all support kidney function. Small, consistent habits matter more than drastic changes.
4. Be cautious with medications
Some over-the-counter pain medications and supplements can stress the kidneys if used too often. Always discuss medications and supplements with your doctor to ensure they are safe for your kidney health.
5. Get regular checkups
Kidney disease often has no early symptoms. Simple blood and urine tests can detect problems early—when treatment is most effective.
