If you want to know how well your kidneys function, a good metric to look at would be the Glomerular Filtration Rate.
The Glomerular Filtration Rate is not constant. It needs to be increased or decreased depending on how much the kidney needs to get rid of.
Well, how do you affect the glomerular filtration rate? In this video, you will get the answers. Enjoy!
