I did not know about the existence of World Kidney Day.
I see that the affected indexes show significant figures, this should bring us to reflect and improve our daily routine.
I have always been a participant in sports and a healthy diet. Above all I always recommend my friends to drink a lot of water, pure and crystal clear.
Thank you for divulging this valuable information, appreciated @anzirpasai.
