The Kidney Warning Signs You’re Missing— And Why Waiting is Dangerous

from Health Lab

To celebrate the 10 year anniversary, Health Lab hosted its the first Health Lab Live Show, which brought two Health Lab articles to life by interviewing experts live on stage in front of a live audience while deep diving into trending health and wellness topics. Julie Wright, M.D., a nephrologist, talks about the silent symptoms you’d never suspect, why most people don’t catch issues until it’s too late, and what you can do today to get ahead of any issues. She even says you might be able to prevent it if you spot concerning bloodwork early.
