Kidney Diagram - #17147
I’ve been focusing on improving my health lately and learning more about the importance of kidney health. I know that the kidneys play a crucial role in filtering waste from the blood, regulating fluid balance, and supporting overall health, but I’m not sure about all the details of how the kidneys function or how I can best support them. I’ve seen diagrams of the kidneys online, but I’m still unsure about how the kidneys are structured and how they perform their vital functions. I’m curious about the anatomy of the kidneys—how are they shaped and where are they located in the body? I’ve also read that kidney diseases, such as kidney stones or kidney failure, can occur due to poor diet, dehydration, or genetics, and I want to know more about how I can prevent kidney problems in the future. Since I’m interested in Ayurveda, I’m wondering if there are specific herbs or practices that can support kidney health and prevent potential issues. I’ve heard that herbs like Punarnava, Gokshura, and Varuna are often used in Ayurveda to support kidney function and detoxification, and I’d like to know more about how they work. Has anyone focused on kidney health or experienced kidney issues? What steps did you take to improve your kidney function, and did Ayurveda offer any support?
