as they work diligently to clean out waste products

your kidneys are vital organs, and it’s well worth

The kidneys
are bean-shaped organs that keep the composition of
the blood balanced, regulate the amount of fluid in
the body, help to control blood pressure, and also produce
hormones that are important for blood and bone formation.
These organs are located on either side of the lower
back just below the rib cage. Together with the bladder,
two ureters, and the urethra, the kidneys make up the
body’s urinary system. Human beings, as well as
members of all other vertebrate species, typically have
two kidneys. Kidneys are dark red in color and in adult
humans are about 10 to 12 cm long and about 5 to 7 cm
wide.
Structure of the Kidneys
The outside
layer of the kidney is called the cortex. Beneath the
cortex lies the medulla, containing pyramids, which
are formed of microscopic tubules. At the center of
the kidney is a cavity called the renal pelvis.
Urine Production
The production
of urine is a complex process. It is far from being
a simple removal of water from the body, rather it is
a process of selective filtration that removes waste
and potential toxins from the blood while retaining
essential molecules. Blood enters the kidneys by the
renal artery and is processed in tiny tubes called nephrons
and returned to circulation through the renal veins.
The substances that are filtered are turned into urine,
composed of 95% water, 2.5% urea, 2.5% mixture of minerals,
salt, hormones and enzymes. Urine is then collected
in the central part of the kidney and passes through
the ureters to the bladder. When the bladder is full
of urine, it is emptied from the body through the urethra.
Approximately 180 liters of blood moves through the
two kidneys every day, about 1.5 liters of urine are
produced.
Other Function of Good Kidney Health
In addition
to cleaning the blood, the kidneys regulate the amount
of water contained in the blood. ADH (Vasopressin) is
an anti-diuretic hormone produced in the hypothalamus
and stored in the pituitary gland. When the amount of
salt and other substances in the blood becomes too high,
the pituitary glands release ADH into the bloodstream
and to the kidneys. This increases the permeability
of the walls of the renal tubules, helping to reabsorb
more water into the blood stream. The kidneys also adjust
the body's acid-base balance to prevent acidosis and
alkalosis.
Another
function of the kidneys is the processing of vitamin
D. The kidneys convert this vitamin to an active form
that stimulates bone development.
Kidney Diseases
Diseases
of the kidney range from mild infection to life-threatening
kidney failure. The most common form of kidney disease
is an inflammation of the kidneys. Kidney stones are
crystallized minerals that sometimes obstruct the flow
of urine and damage the kidneys. Nephrotic syndrome
is a disorder that affects the ability of the glomeruli
(filtering units) to retain protein in the blood. Proteins
are excreted through the urine, creating a protein deficiency
that leads to fluid retention leading to swelling of
different parts of the body, as well as weight gain
from the excess fluid.
Kidney failure
occurs when the kidneys are no longer able to keep the
blood balanced. In acute kidney failure, symptoms include
swelling, drowsiness, and irregular heartbeat. In chronic
kidney failure, symptoms include fatigue, loss of appetite,
headaches, cramps and thirst.
Urinary
tract infections are health problems that are caused
by kidney damage, various urinary infections, sexual
contact and kidney stones.
