Not all kidney disease is random.

Some of it is genetic.

APOL1 is a gene variant that significantly increases the risk of chronic kidney disease — especially in people of African ancestry.

And most people have never even heard of it.

In this clip from FilterLIFE Podcast Episode 7, we break down what APOL1 is, why it matters, and how genetic testing could change outcomes for families at risk.

If you carry certain APOL1 variants, your risk for kidney failure can be much higher.

But here’s the powerful part:

There is testing.
There is education.
There are resources.

Too many families only discover kidney disease after it has already progressed to advanced stages. Genetic awareness gives people the chance to understand their risk sooner.

1 in 7 adults are living with kidney disease.
90% don’t know it.

What if part of the reason is genetic?

APOL1 testing may be especially important for individuals with a family history of kidney disease, high blood pressure, or unexplained kidney failure.

Knowledge is power.
Early awareness saves lives.
And genetic insight can change family outcomes.

If you believe you may be at risk or want to learn more about APOL1 testing and eligibility, reach out to The Enlisted Kidney Foundation. We can help connect you with the right resources and guide you through next steps.

Kidney disease doesn’t always start with symptoms.

Sometimes it starts in your DNA.
