"Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was estimated to affect about 788 million adults worldwide, more than double the number in 1990, making it one of the most widespread and underrecognized health concerns.

A recent systematic analysis published in The Lancet estimated that CKD was the ninth leading cause of death globally, responsible for roughly 1.48 million deaths in 2023 alone.

A: Start by cutting back on processed food, getting regular movement, and staying well hydrated."
