A person normally has two kidneys located at either side of the spine behind the abdominal organs and below the rib cage. They are bean shaped and weigh about one-third of a pound. When working properly, your kidneys perform five main functions:
Clean waste material from the blood
Retain or excrete salt and water
Regulate blood pressure
Stimulate bone marrow to make red blood cells
Control the amount of calcium and phosphorous absorbed and excreted
