My blood was used somewhere somewhere on 42 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: the Central coast. So it actually tells you amazing what 43 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: your blood is doing, which is great. Altruistic donation though, 44 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: is where you go further and you say, hey, I 45 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: don't need two kidneys. I don't need both of these 46 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: to run a normal life.

Now, as long as. 53 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 5: You have a healthy diet and regular exercise, then one 54 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 5: kidney can work just as well as to filtering the blood. Well, 55 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 5: I guess two is better than one. 56 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: This is the grand design.
