What Kidney Disease effects It effects the Excretory System because the Excretory System pulls sodium, nitrogen, and other wastes out of the body’s fluid. When the kidneys are damaged, these can’t be removed, leading to high sodium and blood poisoning that build up over years.
Treatment/Prevention Prevention: Stay well hydrated and eat healthy. If you already have this disease, you should keep your blood pressure under 130/180. Prevent diseases and avoid situations that can cause kidney damage or make it worse.
