MISSION
The purpose of this website is to make available general information related to kidney disease management to people suffering from kidney disease and their families so that they can take care of their kidney with awareness and knowledge. It is POSSIBLE to lead a good life with kidney ailment with slight changes in daily routine, by being more disciplined, by ensuring that we know what is happening inside our body and how our kidney is functioning, by knowing the strain that our kidney is taking to keep us going and by caring a little more for our kidney and our general overall well being.
Lack of health care professionals or the high cost associated with it acts as a barrier in educating large number of patients and their families individually about kidney disease, its progression, medication, diet, lifestyle management etc. Kidneydigest.com aims to provide general information to people on management of kidney disease, to create awareness among people on how to take care of themselves by reading and understanding more on the role of kidney, how it functions, how to prevent kidney disease, what to do when one suffers from chronic kidney disease, how to raise funds, etc.
With the help of technology, one can store their prescriptions, reports, dialysis diary digitally so that they can travel conveniently across places. Food habits, lifestyle management, diet and fitness contribute extensively in preventing/ delaying kidney disease.
