Protect Your Kidneys, Protect Your Life: Unlock the Secrets to Preventing Chronic Kidney Disease
Stay Healthy through Kidney Maintenance: Preventing Chronic Kidney Disease
The Health and Medical Department, also known as the Health and Longevity Department, is organizing a mini lecture titled “Stay healthy through kidney maintenance! – Preventing chronic kidney disease” at AEON’s “11th Saitama Fair” (Workshop/Health and Longevity Section).
The kidneys play a vital role in maintaining our overall health by filtering 200 liters of blood every day and excreting waste products as urine. However, it is estimated that approximately 14.8 million people suffer from chronic kidney disease. A specialist doctor will explain how to detect the disease early and prevent kidney function from worsening in an easy-to-understand manner.
