Are your kidneys healthy? Ahead of World Kidney Day to be marked on Thursday March 13, 2014, the Rotary Club of Madaraka will host Mr. Valentine Imonje, the CEO of the National Kidney Foundation of Kenya to give a talk on how to keep our kidneys healthy. Celebrated on the second Thursday in March, the mission of World Kidney Day is to raise awareness of the importance of our kidneys to our overall health and to reduce the frequency and impact of kidney disease and its associated health problems worldwide. About 1 in 10 people have some degree of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Kidney disease can affect people of all ages and races. Although CKD can occur at any age, it becomes more common with increasing age. If detected early, Chronic Kidney Diseases can be treated--thereby reducing other complications and dramatically reduce the growing burden of deaths and disability from chronic renal and cardiovascular disease worldwide. https://facebook/profile.php?id=226563870834413&fref=ts
