The Kool Kidney
The kidney is still very much a black box to me. Hence, the box in this mini-infographic (a “minfo”) describing some of the cool stuff our kidneys do. As you can tell, it is not just a brilliant filter getting rid of waste products but so much more. Dialysis (with the aid of Nephrologists’ potions) has got to do most of this stuff too.
That ‘black box’ image with its ‘kool’ facts is very interesting. I never knew it slows down the urine making process at night!
