Kidneys

✨ Overview

The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs located on either side of the spine, just below the ribcage. They serve as the body’s primary filtration system, removing waste, balancing electrolytes, regulating fluid levels, and maintaining acid-base balance. Beyond filtration, the kidneys help regulate blood pressure, stimulate red blood cell production, and activate vitamin D for bone health. They are essential for maintaining internal homeostasis and overall health.
