2025 Kidney Health Month<\/strong><\/h4>\nMarch is Kidney Health Month<\/strong>,<\/strong> and CDTRP is proud to count numerous kidney health specialists and patient partners living with kidney disease, having received or given a kidney, throughout our network.<\/p>\nKidney health is vital to overall well-being, yet kidney disease often goes unnoticed until it reaches advanced stages. In Canada, 1 in 10 people are affected by kidney disease, but many don\u2019t realize it until it\u2019s too late. For those living with or at risk of kidney disease, prevention and management strategies\u2014such as maintaining a healthy diet, staying active, and managing conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure\u2014can make a significant difference.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
