Does protein shake damage kidney?

Arey nahi yaar, aisa kuch nahi hota agar tum limits mein pi rahe ho. Haan, but extra paani pina zaroori hai shake ke saath. Aise hi bina baat darna mat, bas local quality wale products avoid karna, na.

With thyroid, I learned that everything we put inside our body needs a doctor's nod. I always get regular kidney and liver tests done every six months just to be safe. Better to consult your specialist before starting any protein supplements.

Unless you have a pre-existing kidney disease, normal protein shakes are quite safe. The trouble starts when people take huge amounts without drinking enough water. If you are worried, get a simple serum creatinine test done to be absolutely sure of your health.

It won't hurt if you are active and exercising daily. I take my protein and do brisk walking and light weights for 45 minutes. But yes, always make sure your body type and fitness levels allow it, check with your physician first.

Please don't worry too much. If you take it in normal quantities as recommended on the pack, it is safe. Just keep drinking plenty of water throughout the day.
