Did you know that high blood pressure (hypertension) is a leading cause of kidney disease? The kidneys help filter waste, but high blood pressure can damage blood vessels, leading to chronic kidney disease (CKD) or even kidney failure.
How Does High Blood Pressure Damage the Kidneys?
🔹 Narrowed blood vessels reduce the kidneys’ ability to remove waste.
🔹 Over time, scar tissue builds up, leading to loss of kidney function.
5 Steps to Protect Your Kidney Health
✔ Monitor Blood Pressure Regularly (aim for <120/80 mmHg)
✔ Eat a Low-Sodium Diet (reduce processed foods)
✔ Stay Hydrated (8+ glasses of water/day)
✔ Maintain a Healthy Weight
✔ Limit Alcohol & Stop Smoking
