No, I don't really understand this question. When you eat food, the nutrients in the food are absorbed by the GI tract and sent to the blood stream where they circulate and find places that need them. The kidneys do work, and also need support. The work is to eliminate things the body does not need anymore, and also they need energy and support to maintain the cells and tissue. If the kidneys are damaged some things are lost which should be saved, and toxins which need to be eliminated are not, and build up. The kidney has 2 filtering systems to accomplish both tasks.

There are hundreds of places in the body that use magnesium for example. This link explains further:
