Are you drinking enough water in this Arizona heat?

Water powers the kidneys to be able to filter waste from your blood, keep blood vessels open, and deliver nutrients to different parts of your body. When you're dehydrated, blood and nutrients can't reach your kidneys, putting them at risk.

Not only that, but water also prevents kidney stones from forming easily since it can stop crystals from sticking together, while also flushing out bacteria that cause urinary tract infections. Staying hydrated, especially during hot summers, is the simplest way to protect your kidneys.

Remember to stay hydrated this summer. To learn more about your kidney health, visit azkidney.org 🧡
