Honestly, at this point, with my sleep schedule, I'm not even sure how many brain cells I have left, let alone kidneys! But yeah, most people have two. Unless you're like, a superhero or something, then maybe more?

Feeling a bit confused or worried about health stuff is completely normal. I've been there. Most humans are born with two kidneys, which do a super important job. It's good you're asking questions.
