The Link Between Heart and Kidney Health - Samir Parikh MD ASN

Did you know that 9 out of 10 people with kidney disease don't even know they have it? Kidney disease is a silent epidemic, but protecting your kidneys is one of the most important things you can do for your heart and your life. In this episode of "Go To Health! Elevate Your Life," host Jonathan Marx sits down with Dr. Samir Parikh MD, President of the American Society of Nephrology (ASN), to uncover the critical link between heart and kidney health. Dr. Parikh explains what nephrology is, why early detection is so difficult, and how poor kidney function can strain your heart, leading to high blood pressure and other cardiovascular issues. We also discuss major risk factors like diabetes, obesity, and hypertension, and how simple blood and urine tests can save your life.
