Sinopsis

It's the fourth leg of a four legged stool of diseases that ravage the African American community - high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease and kidney disease. Blacks are three times more likely to develop kidney failure than whites and make up more than 35% of all dialysis patients, even though African Americans are only 13% of the US population. We will talk about kidney disease, including the causes, symptoms, treatments and what you can do to keep your kidneys healthy and functioning well. It's Another View on Health with kidney specialist Dr. Onweli Ogbolu, and co-host, cardiologist Dr. Keith Newby.
