Kidney disease, also known as 'chronic kidney disease' (CKD), causes more deaths each year than breast cancer or prostate cancer. It is the under-recognized public health crisis. About 9 in 10 adults with kidney disease do not know they have it. People with kidney disease may not feel ill, or notice symptoms, until the disease is advanced. Kidney disease is the 8th leading cause of death in the U.S.\"\u003cbr\u003e- National Kidney Foundation; 2025 \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn the U.S., about 555,000 people are on dialysis.

Chronic kidney disease is especially dangerous because patients rarely notice any symptoms, until the disease reaches its later stages. When the damage is no longer reversible.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Dr. Dira Sooparth, Nephrologist; Bumrungrad International Hospital; Jan. 2019 \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGlobally, heart disease is the number one killer. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAbout 7% of adult Americans have some form of coronary heart disease. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn 2023, 919,032 Americans died from cardiovascular disease.

Kidney disease can be prevented, slowed, or halted by the same measures. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOver 60% of those with chronic kidney disease also have cardiovascular disease, with cardiovascular disease being the leading cause of death among them. The combination is called cardiorenal syndrome, with disease in one organ stressing and increasing the risk of disease in the other. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhy are heart disease and kidney disease so common?
