What Is The Function Of The Kidney?
What exactly are the kidneys, their purpose, and their point? Well, your kidneys are your two organs located in your lower back or your flanks. They are located where the love handles are. And they serve to filter out your blood and they get rid of excess toxins, they make urine, and they do so much more than that. But the key is, that unless you have at least one functioning kidney, you cannot live. Unless you have some other form of kidney replacement therapy like dialysis or transplant, but you have to have proper kidney function to survive. Knowing that, don’t you think that you should make your kidney health a priority? Today, I’m going to talk to you about how to keep your kidneys healthy.

I have stage 3B kidney disease. I switched to a whole foods plant-based diet two months ago and my blood tests have shown a good amount of improvement every time. It's not perfect (yet) but it's getting better.
I have 3b kidney disease and don’t want to go on dalysis. Dr. Frita I feel saved me from further function decline by stop taking Losartan as suggested on her Utube video. My primary physician had prescribed this 3 months ago. My blood pressure was great but my kidney function was decling a little. God bless her for the information.
@@TheeRealMiaa There are many wonderful self-help and alternative treatment and habits things one can take on.
LaLayla99: What is a plant-based diet; with mostly vegs and some animal proteins? Becz otherwise you'd have said Vegetarian, right? I My diet is strict with 70% mostly cooked, preferred and organic vegetables (but I include forbidden ones for certain reasons), 5% fat,10%meat and 15% whole-grain gluten-free cooked grains. I feel well on it, but sadly struggke´le wih sugar-and stress-eating still. I'd like a comrade of self-help to share self-caring healing-work with, be accountable to, share the comfort and joy of connection with.
@Lil Rockstar I have Stage 3b as well my kidney doctor put me on Losartan because my blood pressure is not at a good number. Dr.Frita says not to take Losartan and stated you told your pcp about the effect Losartan have on the kidneys. What am I suppose to take instead of Losartan? Help I do not want to go back on dialysis. I had a acute kidney injury which put me on dialysis for one and a half months. My kidneys started back working properly. I need to do much better with my diet. Do you have any suggestions. I can not exercise because both knees are bone on bone. The Orthopedic Dr. stated that I must lose weight to have surgery. I am struggling hard but not dropping the weight. I hear a plant base diet is the way to go.
@@donnaking8056 whole food, plant-based diet. meat is hard on the kidneys, but beans/legumes are not.

I just watched a room full of Chinese people each one had at least 20 t 30 cell phones per person lined up on a metal stand . There were close to 100+ in this office of Chinese people going through different people social media pages . I found this on this man name 'black aliens" on IG . What was going on was the government had paid workers we call bots trying to create there own narratives on people pages . Purposely disliking and posting dis information that went against there agenda .. and one of the workers saw what the worker was recording and exposing what was going on . But this was just food for thought to your question . Another thing two of the commenters said that was not in China but USA weather true or not this is most definitely happening.
Thank you for your health advice !
