  Nephrology - Kidney Health...

  The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs located on either side of the spine, just below the ribcage. Despite their small size, each roughly the size of a fist, they play a vital role in maintaining overall health. As part of the urinary system, the kidneys filter waste, balance bodily fluids, regulate blood pressure, and contribute to red blood cell production. Understanding how the kidneys function is crucial for appreciating their importance and recognizing potential health concerns. 
  Each kidney contains about a million tiny filtering units called nephrons. These nephrons work tirelessly to remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood, which are then excreted as urine. The kidneys also help maintain the body’s electrolyte balance by regulating levels of sodium, potassium, and calcium. This precise balance is essential for proper nerve and muscle function. Additionally, the kidneys produce hormones such as erythropoietin, which stimulates red blood cell production in the bone marrow, and renin, which helps regulate blood pressure. Without the kidneys' ability to perform these tasks, the body would struggle to maintain equilibrium, leading to serious health complications. 
  One of the kidneys' primary functions is detoxification. Every day, they filter around 50 gallons of blood, removing harmful substances such as urea, creatinine, and toxins that accumulate from food, medications, and metabolic processes. This filtration process ensures that waste products do not build up to dangerous levels in the bloodstream. When kidney function declines, these substances can accumulate, leading to symptoms like fatigue, swelling, and confusion.

  A heartwarming philosophical meditation on how to live a fulfilling life—inspired by the inherent happiness of dogs. 
   
   
   
  If you have spent any part of your life with a dog, you may have found certain questions popping, unbidden, into your mind: Is my dog living a fulfilled life? Is my dog a good dog? Does my dog love me? Addressing these questions compels you to confront not just your dog's life but yours as well—to think about what fulfillment, and meaning, in life really is. 
   
   
   
  In The Word of Dog, philosopher Mark Rowlands explores these questions and suggests that in dogs we can see hints—faint, shrouded, but discernible—of what a better way of living might look like. Perhaps none of us can be happy in the way a dog can, but The Word of Dog shows us we could do a lot better than we're doing simply by listening to the unspoken wisdom our dogs reveal to us every day of their happy, uncomplicated lives.
