4. Optimal hydration
Ensuring the body is optimally hydrated with a regular supply of clean and filtered water is of the utmost importance for the support of healthy kidneys. Water is responsible for supporting many of the body’s vital functions as it improves oxygen delivery to cells all over the body. It is also responsible for transporting nutrients, flushing away useless toxins and supporting the natural healing process.
It is vitally important for people to drink plenty of fluids in order to clear the kidneys of things like sodium, urea and other waste products. For people with chronic kidney problems, ensuring that the body is kept at a good level of hydration can actually slow down the decline of kidney function.
Drinking water really can be that effective and it really isn’t that hard to do, whether or not you’re suffering from kidney disease! Drink up to half your body weight in water every day for optimal hydration.
