While protein intake is always recommended to build muscle mass, few consider the risks, and on the other hand, you shouldn't avoid protein diets for fear of increasing kidney problems.

As a person who works out quite a lot I thought that your article was very interesting :)

I have lived with one kidney for 6 years now. I can’t take advil, ibuprofen, alieve and most decongestants. My kidney function is right on the line of medically acceptable for people with two kidneys. My question has always been - why don’t we know that those drugs obviously have an adverse impact on our kidneys.
