Preventing Kidney Disease

1 in 3 American adults is at risk for ‪kidney‬ disease. What puts you at risk for kidney disease? Major risk factors include diabetes, high blood pressure, a family history of kidney failure and being age 60 or older. Kidney disease often has no symptoms, and it can go undetected until very advanced. But a simple urine test can tell you if you have kidney disease. Remember, it's important to get tested because early detection and treatment can slow or prevent the progression of kidney disease. (‪NKF‬) At The Kidney & ‪‎Hypertension‬ Group, we put great emphasis on preventing Kidney Disease, or reversing or slowing the progression of existing kidney disease. And we are changing lives. Don't let anyone tell you there's not much you can do. At the KHG, we have a Kidney Disease Prevention Clinic, and together we CAN do something about kidney disease. For an appointment to find out what you can do to prevent kidney disease, improve your current kidney performance, or to find out what your risk is for kidney disease in the future, contact us at 9547713929. https://www.kidney.org/prevention
