    There are so many variables you haven't told us! Is protein dust the only protein you get? Do you have kidney issues? Do you drink plenty of water? If you're worried about these things, you need to consult with a Dr.

    In my case, I have CKD Stage 3 with 1 kidney functioning at 80% for years, & 1 that has atrophied. I asked my urologist if I could consume 60-65 gr of protein as part of a weight loss program. He said ok, maybe because I need to lose 75 lbs.

    I had been concerned that too much protein would be damaging to my 1 good kidney. This Dr saved my life in 2007 (cancer) & I trust him completely. However each patient & situation is different.

    I urge you to see a physician to answer your questions & test you if needed.
