The kidneys and liver are essential organs that play crucial roles in maintaining overall health and well-being. The kidneys filter waste, regulate fluid balance, and support other vital functions, while the liver plays a central role in metabolism, detoxification, and nutrient storage.  Both organs can be affected by various diseases that can disrupt their normal functions, leading to serious health complications. We are in conversation with General practitioner, Dr Pfunzo Machimana as we explore the key functions of the kidneys and liver, common diseases that can impact them, and ways to maintain their health.
