1 out of 10 adult people worldwide have kidney disease, and if left untreated it can be deadly! Help raise awareness and advance kidney health education on #WorldKidneyDay.

Your kidneys are amazing organs! Their main job is to remove toxins and excess water from your blood. Kidneys also help to control your blood pressure, to produce red blood cells and to keep your bones healthy. #WorldKidneyDay#KidneyHealthForAll https://t.co/2iCNwGsoIM
