00:00How did the member of Universal Motion Dancers, Norman Santos, get infected with kidney failure?
00:06What is the cause of kidney failure and how can we avoid it?
00:10This is the fit track in the report of Vona Kino.
00:19After a long struggle with kidney failure,
00:2352-year-old Norman Santos, a member of the famous 90s dance group Universal Motion Dancers or UMD,
00:31was diagnosed with kidney failure.
00:33His partner confirmed it in a Facebook post.
00:35He was diagnosed 12 years ago.
00:38UMD fans were furious.
00:41His former groupmate, Huawei D. Guzman, was diagnosed with kidney failure.
00:46According to a nephrologist,
00:48kidney failure can be considered a kidney failure if the kidney does not work or its function is low.
00:53Because our kidneys have roots,
00:55a good percentage of blood flow coming from the heart goes to the kidney.
01:01So when these roots are damaged,
01:04it weakens and its strength decreases
01:07so that the toxins in the body are more effective.
01:12Kidney failure can lead to chronic kidney disease or CKD.
01:17When it reaches a point where it is less than 10% strong,
01:22it needs support in the kidney like dialysis
01:26or if there is a donor or potential donor, kidney transplantation.
01:32It can be an acute kidney injury.
01:34You can have kidney failure, for example, extreme blood loss, dehydration.
01:41To avoid kidney failure, the doctor advised
01:44Maintaining proper weight, proper diet,
01:48and of course, if you have high blood or diabetes,
01:51it needs to be controlled with the proper medications and guidance of our doctors.
01:57Proper drinking of water, 8 to 10 glasses of water per day can help.
02:02It's just that you have to stay hydrated.
02:05Exercise and eat foods with low salt content.
02:09Consult your doctor about the medication you are taking and don't self-prescribe.
