Nephrons are the tiny filters that remove nitrogenous wastes from the blood. Nephrons are found in the kidneys.
nephrons
Your spleen:- acts as a filter for your blood, cleansing it of bacteria, viruses and other debris. The Liver:- gets rid of toxins, to regulate your blood sugar levels and to produce bile. Kidneys :- To make urine from waste products and excess water found in your blood. Pancreas:- Secreting digestive enzymes and hormones that control blood sugar levels
When we consume sugar, our bodies manufacture insulin in order to take the sugar out of our blood. If we eat too much sugar, it is turned into fat.
Long term elevated blood sugar will lead to organ damage and/or organ failure. The organs that are usually damaged first are the eyes and kidneys. The eye because eye pressure is effected (osmosis) and the kidneys because they filter the blood. The kidneys become overworked trying to remove the excessive glucose from the blood.
Diabetes Mellitus can cause renal failure; High blood sugar can overwork the kidneys, which over time damage them. After many years, they start to leak small amounts of protein (albumin) into the urine, which indicates that the kidneys are damaged. In stage two of the disease, damage to the kidneys has progressed to a level that causes problems throughout the body. One such problem is an increase in the amount of waste products in the blood such as urea, creatinine, and phosphate. Other effects of chronic renal failure include anemia, bone disease, acidosis, and salt and fluid retention.
The kidneys are bean-shaped organs, each about the size of a fist. They are located near the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. The kidneys are sophisticated reprocessing machines. Every day, a person's kidneys process about 200 quarts of blood to sift out about 2 quarts of waste products and extra water. The wastes and extra water become urine, which flows to the bladder through tubes called ureters. The bladder stores urine until releasing it through urination.Wastes in the blood come from the normal breakdown of active tissues, such as muscles, and from food. The body uses food for energy and self-repairs. After the body has taken what it needs from food, wastes are sent to the blood. If the kidneys did not remove them, these wastes would build up in the blood and damage the body. The actual removal of wastes occurs in tiny units inside the kidneys called nephrons. Each kidney has about a million nephrons. In the nephron, a glomerulus-which is a tiny blood vessel, or capillary-intertwines with a tiny urine-collecting tube called a tubule. The glomerulus acts as a filtering unit, or sieve, and keeps normal proteins and cells in the bloodstream, allowing extra fluid and wastes to pass through. A complicated chemical exchange takes place, as waste materials and water leave the blood and enter the urinary system.
NO THE KIDNEYS CLEAN OUT THE BLOOD AND THE PANCREAS HELP PRODUCE INSULIN FOR THE BODY TO CREATE SUGARS AND KEEP A NORMAL BLOOD SUGAR
Kidneys both retain and remove everything carried by the blood, depending on current concentration, generally filtering out chemical components of cells (and cells themselves) as they reach a point of deterioration where they are no longer capable of performing the tasks for which they are intended. Another major factor in proper kidney function fluid intake because that directly impacts blood pressure, which has great implications on how kidneys filter (or fail to filter) components of the blood.
The pancreas and the kidneys
Yes because of its ability to cause low blood pressure-------------------------------------Actually low blood pressure has nothing to do with it. High blood sugar damages the network of fine blood vessels found in the kidneys . It also causes the body to eliminate excess sugar throughurine, so the kidneys can become fatigued. Long periods of high blood sugar can lead to kidney damage that in turn may cause high blood pressure.
For some reason the kidneys are not holding back glucose (a sugar) in the blood as they should. The sugar is spilling into the urine. It is often a sign of diabetes but it could be something wrong with how the kidneys are filtering.
Any kind of red wine is fine - but a white wine would actually be better for your kidneys, as red wine has higher levels of sugar, therefore forcing your kidneys to work harder to filter it out.
