More than 1 in 7 US adults have chronic kidney disease.

But most don’t know they have it.

Testing identifies kidney issues before symptoms appear.

Kidney health can affect your whole body

Your kidneys work hard, filtering about 200 quarts of fluid every day, removing waste and balancing your body’s fluids and electrolytes. When this process doesn’t work as well as it should, such as in kidney disease, it can lead to complications like anemia, cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, and high blood pressure.

Identify the signs before experiencing symptoms

Chronic kidney disease is usually asymptomatic until it reaches stage 4 or 5—at which point dialysis and kidney transplants are on the table. Testing can help you spot signs of kidney disease before symptoms may appear, so you can work with your clinician to slow progression with diet and lifestyle changes.
