Kidney disease can progress quietly, often without obvious symptoms. So how do you know if your kidneys are actually healthy?
In this episode of The Lushness Podcast: The Black Woman’s Longevity Blueprint, nephrologist Mona Abraham, MD joins us to break down what every woman should understand about kidney health.
We talk about the numbers to know in your labs, blood pressure and kidney function, early warning signs, dehydration, kidney stones, medications like ibuprofen and NSAIDs, and what you can do now to protect your kidneys over the long term.
Because when symptoms finally appear, kidney disease may already be advanced.
Watch the full episode, “Kidney Disease Can Be Silent: The Signs, Symptoms & Numbers You Need to Know,” now on the Lushness YouTube channel.
