Question

what impact does proper hydration have on kidney function?
a. increases the risk of developing kidney stones
b. decreases the probability of developing kidney stones
c. has no effect on kidney function
d. reduces the amount of water the body can process

Explanation:

Proper hydration helps dilute substances in the urine that can form kidney stones. Adequate water intake flushes out these potential stone - forming components. Option a is incorrect as proper hydration does not increase the risk. Option c is wrong because hydration clearly affects kidney function. Option d is also incorrect as proper hydration does not reduce the body's water - processing ability; rather, it supports normal function.

Answer:

B. Decreases the probability of developing kidney stones
