The kidneys filter the blood and remove these waste products in the form of urine.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creatinine and urea are the two most important waste products that need to be removed during the process of urination. When these values are high in the blood routine test, it is an indication that the kidneys are slowly failing.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>#\u00a0 Removal of Excess Fluid<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Balance of Fluid &#8211; <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet another function of the kidney is that it regulates the fluid balance by removing excess water as urine.

The decreased levels of this hormone leads to kidney failure because of low hemoglobin counts.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>#\u00a0 Maintain Healthy Bones<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Convert Vitamin D into active form for Absorption of Calcium, for Growth &#8211; <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This function of the kidneys leads to healthy growth, strong bones and teeth.

Vasoconstrictors known as angiotensin are released causing blood vessels to narrow.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Absorption of Sodium Chloride &#8211; <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The kidneys work with other functions to absorb sodium chloride effectively.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Kidney Diseases<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are numerous factors that could affect the normal functioning of the kidneys, from environment to medical procedures leading to functional as well as structural problems from birth.
