How To Prevent Kidney Failure The kidneys are two organs located in your mid section on either side of your spine. They clean the blood from waste and keep a balance of salt and other minerals in order to control your blood pressure. The most commonest causes of kidney disease are;diabetes, hypertension, heavy alcohol users, smoking, old age, people with recurrent urinary tract infections , and over the counter drugs abusers. When the kidneys are damaged, waste products and fluids builds up in your body causing swellings, vomiting, weakness, poor sleep and shortness of breath . Report to the nearest health facility when you experience any of the above symptoms. Check your blood pressure and blood sugar regularly. If no intervention is done, the kidneys will eventually stop working. Remember that, loss of kidney functioning is very fatal and we should all be alert.

A WATCH FOR CHANGE

I was going through  Facebook  a month ago and saw the picture below being shared by a friend on her page . It really caught my attention. But after reading the message, I felt very sad and worried. The reason was that, obesity was killing me slowly(98kg) and hardly exercise too. But my attitude towards life have changed. I started exercising every weekends when I don't have work. The funny thing is that, the picture was always on my mind and kept me moving. I now eat fruits every morning and evening of which  I never did. My colleagues look at me and wonder what is causing the sudden change . It's no other thing than "life from 30" picture....... The great news is that my weight is reducing gradually and I feel so healthy, strong and happy. Thank you "life from 30".Keep up the good work. You are changing life and saving innocent souls. Shallom!!!                                    ...

AN IMPORTANT THING YOU SHOULD KNOW.  There are several blood vessels (arteries) in our body that carry blood from the heart throughout the body.These blood vessels are lined by a thin layer of cells called endothelium.The endothelium is smooth in nature,which enables easy flow of blood in the body. But atherosclerosis occurs when the endothelium of the blood vessel is occupied with fatty plaques preventing blood from flowing through the body.As the build up of fat increases,it slows down the flow of blood or may rapture the blood vessel.This result in your risk of developing heart attack or stroke.The sad thing is that it presents no symptoms unless at its terminal stage.The most commonest cause of atherosclerosis is high cholesterol,smoking and high blood pressure.Exercise regularly to burn excess fats,eat nutritious diet,avoid smoking and check your blood pressure regularly. #lifefrom30hypertensionawarenessgroup#
