The Amazing Function of Kidneys

You would literally pee out your entire body's water supply in thirty minutes if your kidneys

stopped working for a second. These organs are absolute beasts, filtering your entire

blood volume sixty times every single day. It is a high-pressure system where fluid

gets blasted through a microscopic barrier. This filter keeps the important proteins inside but lets

the water and waste run loose. But before it leaves as urine, your body frantically

grabs back ninety-nine percent of that water and salt. Your kidneys are basically hoarding

your fluids to keep you from turning into a dried-up raisin.
