Each day, our kidneys filter about 200 quarts of blood to extract about 2 quarts of cellular wastes, along with excess electrolytes and water. As sensitive monitors of the body`s fluid balance, the kidneys help regulate blood pressure. They also monitor oxygen levels in the blood and, if they detect a deficit, release a hormone that triggers red blood cell production.
