Your Kidneys Can Lose Up to 90% of Their Function Before Symptoms Appear
One of the most surprising facts about kidney disorders is that serious damage can occur long before a person notices any symptoms. The kidneys have a large functional reserve, meaning they can continue filtering waste effectively even after significant damage has occurred. As a result, many people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) feel completely normal until the condition reaches advanced stages. This is why kidney disease is often called a “silent disease” and why regular blood and urine tests are so important, especially for adults over 50.
