And I think it's obvious that you have to err on the side of caution with this just as you do almost anything; but that doesn't mean a high carbohydrate diet doesn't come without its consequences, either. I think it's more of a testament to some level of moderation in all areas.
when i sat down with my doc and told him what i ate every single day which most of the time consists of up to 6lbs of red meat a day he told me that the belief that high protein intake causes kidney issues is old and outdated. he said now if i had distressed kidneys or kidney disease this would compound the problem a little bit but not create that much of an impact. he said that the number one killer of the kidneys was stupid high bp for long periods of time in normal kidney people. i dont have any issues with my kidneys but i was concerned that my tests would come back jacked up because i had completed 2 days prior and had barely drank any fluids for 4 days. so i told him that and low and behold they were perfect.
