•Early detection is key to curing kidney disease; the body gives 4 signals in the first stage.
•Kidneys regulate toxins, sodium, potassium, and phosphate; high potassium impairs function, requiring dietary monitoring.
•Women face a higher risk of kidney disease, including Polycystic Kidney Disease and Chronic Kidney Disease, especially those over 30 with diabetes/high BP.
•First-stage symptoms include constant fatigue (due to reduced erythropoietin), insomnia (waste buildup), and skin problems (dryness, itching).
•Other critical early signs are swelling in feet/ankles, loss of appetite, and frequent muscle cramps, which demand immediate attention.
