Introduction

“Should those needing a kidney to be allowed to buy from those who have two?”

No, it should not be allowed. The selling of kidneys raises ethical, health, political, and economic issues
over the commercialization of human body organs that many of us do not foresee. To ease confusion,
selling is different from donating. Every part of our organs plays a vital role in our body so why should
we sell it? Just for the sake of money? Yes it may be true that we need money but that doesn’t mean we
should sell our kidney just for the money.

Do you hear anyone saying “I’ll sell my kidney just to buy a new car” it’s just a expression but realistically
they won’t do it, because it can cause several problems in our body. People can get certain health
problems after donating: About 18% of donors (about 1 in 5) get high blood pressure. About 5%
(1 in 20) get chronic kidney disease. 4% (less than 1 in 20) get diabetes within 5 years of
donating.

Body

Living with PKD can be devastating, but with the possibility of living organ donation, the
prospects of kidney disease patients go from bleak to boundless. Over 100,000 kidney disease
patients are waiting on transplant lists across the nation, with less than 20,000 transplants being
performed annually. The need for more donors persists and the opportunities to donate
increases. From learning how to donate your car to learning how to donate a kidney, there is a
lot you can do to help fight polycystic kidney disease. There’s a difference between selling them
and donating them, If you only do it for the money it will still be useless because you need to
keep track of everything you do. You will be vulnerable to many things such as getting enough
exercise and eating a healthy diet. What if you don’t have the money and the environment for
that kind of setting then it will be complicated. Your overall health will impact your organs and
your ability to heal from major surgery.

 The screening process for living organ donation is extensive, it’s possible you
might uncover health issues you were unaware of previously. Be prepared for
surprises.

- As I’ve said it we cannot predict what can happen to us especially if we are in a different
kind of environment and we can’t provide doing exercises, diets, etc. It may cause even
more problems in the near future. After you sell it the benefits of it will only be short-term.

If you have a solitary kidney, you do not need to eat a special diet. However, you can keep your
kidneys healthy by staying well hydrated, not taking too much salt, and not gaining excessive weight.
If you have reduced kidney function, you may need to make changes to your diet to slow your kidney
disease progression. Work with your health care professional or a registered dietitian to develop a
meal plan that includes foods you enjoy eating while maintaining your kidney health. What if you
can’t anymore afford this type of things such as paying for the dietitian, developing meal plans, etc.
You can’t eat what you want anymore you need to keep track of what you are eating in order to
prevent such things. Some possible long-term risks of donating a kidney may include high blood
pressure (hypertension); large amount of protein in the urine; hernia; organ impairment or failure
that leads to the need for dialysis or transplantation. So selling your kidneys will strike back to you
after a long term of selling it.

Conclusion

One of a pair of organs in the abdomen. The kidneys remove waste and extra water from the
blood (as urine) and help keep chemicals (such as sodium, potassium, and calcium) balanced in
the body. The kidneys also make hormones that help control blood pressure and stimulate bone
marrow to make red blood cells. Every organ in our body plays a vital role and we shouldn’t sell
it just for the sake of money.
