I just learned that today is World Kidney Day so I'm posting this to help raise awareness. March is National Kidney Month.
Since I have inherited polycystic kidney disease I'm past the prevention stage; but being aware of the vital role that one's kidneys play in overall health is always good.
From www.worldkidneyday.org:
"World Kidney Day is a global awareness campaign aimed at raising awareness of the importance of our kidneys.
"World Kidney Day comes back every year. All across the globe many hundred events take place from public screenings in Argentina to Zumba marathons in Malaysia. We do it all to create awareness. Awareness about preventive behaviors, awareness about risk factors, and awareness about how to live with a kidney disease. We do this because we want kidney health for all."
