When your body uses the food you eat and the liquids you drink, there are waste products that your kidneys filter out as urine. When your kidneys are healthy, they keep your whole system in balance. They stimulate your body to make red blood cells.
Wastes, such as urea and creatinine, must also be removed from the body. Urea and other wastes are made when the body breaks down protein, such as meat. Creatinine is a waste product of the muscles. As kidney function decreases, the levels of urea and creatinine in the blood increase. Many waste products are toxic (poisonous) if they are not removed from the body fluids. For example, when certain drugs are taken, chemical wastes are produced which must be removed from the body by the kidneys.
