Too much protein is bad!

It is often claimed that a high protein intake can cause harm to the kidneys, but this is false. Even though it is important for people with pre-existing kidney disease to reduce their protein intake, the same is not true for people with healthy kidneys. Studies show that protein consumption has no detrimental effect on kidney function in healthy people … even in the case of bodybuilders who often eat large quantities of protein rich foods.

Let’s play science says.
