The Academic Resource Center invites you to change your routines, minimize salt intake, and celebrate WORLD KIDNEY DAY 2025.
        Kidney disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease are classified as noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). NCDs are diseases caused by an unhealthy lifestyle, such as eating overly sweet or salty foods, especially saltiness from salt, fish sauce, seasonings, and hidden sodium sources including MSG, baking powder, preservatives, and additives.
        Consumers can limit their salt consumption on their own, even when eating out, by lowering seasoning, drinking less soup, and not dipping in too much sauce.
