Are you ready for World Kidney Day
March 12th is World Kidney Day, a chance to raise awareness about kidney health and the strong connection between diabetes and kidney disease.
Did you know that in Canada:
4 in 10 new dialysis patients have diabetes as the underlying cause
Nearly half of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) also live with some form of kidney disease
This creates a dangerous two-way street: diabetes can damage kidneys, and kidney disease can make diabetes harder to manage.
The good news?
Early detection and awareness can make a real difference in preventing or slowing the progression of kidney disease.
