how much blood passes through your kidneys each day?
Your kidneys play a vital role in keeping your blood composition constant. They filter your blood to remove excess water and waste products, which are secreted from your kidneys as urine. One quarter of your blood supply passes through your kidneys every minute. It enters your kidney and is distributed to minute filtration units known as nephrons.
But, if you don't drink much, your kidneys only produce a small amount of concentrated urine, keeping as much water as possible in your body. In 24 hours, your kidneys filter around 150 litres of blood and produce roughly 1.5 litres of urine.
