Purpose of the Article

Every organ in the body has a specific function for survival and prosperity. Related to major diseases, I wrote about the heart, brain, liver, and lungs. In this article, I focus on kidneys.

My focus on kidneys in this article is the concerning statistics on kidney diseases. While most diseases are declining, kidney diseases are rising.

According to World Health Organization (WHO), “Kidney diseases have risen from the world’s 13th leading cause of death to the 10th. Mortality has increased from 813,000 in 2000 to 1.3 million in 2019.”

These stats show that we are doing something wrong, affecting our kidney health. Science and technology are increasing, but kidney health is decreasing.

As dealing with diseases is challenging, I always highlight the importance of preventative measures with lifestyle changes. I met people suffering from kidney diseases. The quality of their life significantly dropped.
