The "Kidneys under control" package includes:
More than 4 million Poles suffer from kidney diseases. The kidneys perform very important functions in our body. They are primarily responsible for maintaining water and electrolyte balance, removing toxins, and products of metabolism. They also participate in the blood production process and influence blood pressure.
Kidney diseases often progress asymptomatically, intensifying and ultimately leading to irreversible changes. The most common kidney-related diseases include kidney stones, kidney inflammation, kidney failure, and kidney cancer. Individuals with diabetes or obesity, the elderly, those with hypertension, and smokers are particularly at risk for these diseases.
If you are in a risk group, get tested! Don't let illness disrupt your plans. Blood tests allow for the early detection of kidney function abnormalities.
