How does our body cleanse itself from all the waste and toxins we constantly put in it? Our body has several methods of getting rid of harmful agents and wastes and one of the most powerful parts of the body’s ”cleaning system” are the kidneys. These bean-shaped organs are located in the lower back on each side of the spine. The main function of the kidneys is to keep the liquid content in your body and the electrolytes level under control. If you only think of it, these two organs alone are capable to filter about 200 liters of blood daily and to generate about 2 liters of urine!
All sorts of substances, medications, foods, supplements pass through the kidneys on a daily basis. So it is not uncommon for the kidneys to lose their function and to lead to an accumulation of waste products, toxic elements and excessive fluid in your body.
There can be many factors responsible for causing kidney dysfunction, such as diabetes, uncontrolled high blood pressure, kidney stones, glomerulonephritis, pyelonephritis etc. Also, there are drugs such as ibuprofen, acetaminophen, and naproxen that can lead to kidney disease, if they’re consumed regularly for a longer period of time.
The biggest problem here is that chronic renal failure can occur gradually without causing any symptoms because the kidneys are still able to compensate for the dysfunction.
But don’t worry, there are some warning signs that indicate renal disorders. So if you’ve noticed any of these symptoms yourself, consult with your doctor:
