Kidney Health Exercise for Seniors | Gentle Resistance Band Workout
Kidney health exercise designed for seniors and adults with high creatinine, low GFR, or early-stage chronic kidney disease. This gentle resistance band workout helps preserve lean muscle, improve glucose metabolism, and reduce the workload placed on your kidneys. Many people over 55 believe stiffness, swelling, and fatigue are just signs of aging. In reality, these symptoms are often linked to muscle loss (sarcopenia) and declining kidney filtration. In this video, Dr. Mattheus from Kidney Health 365 explains the science behind muscle mass, creatinine stability, and why light resistance training is safer than heavy weights for kidney health. Follow this 20-minute kidney-friendly exercise routine focusing on strength, circulation, edema reduction, and proper breathing to protect blood pressure. ▶ Subscribe for more kidney-safe exercises ⚠️ Educational purposes only.
