You are the person who has to decide;
Whether you’ll do it or toss it aside.
You are the person who makes up your mind;
Whether you’ll lead or will linger behind.
Whether you’ll try for the goal that’s afar;
Or just be contented to stay where you are.

Fitness Tip: High Protein Diets Can Be Bad For Your Kidneys - A typical high protein diet, which is usually very high in saturated fats as well, causes you to lose weight by forcing your body into ketosis. When your body is in this state you lose a lot of water (causing dehydration) and you lose lean body mass (it breaks down your muscles, bones and organs).
This is a highly toxic state that is very bad for your kidneys and overall health. The main problem when it comes to kidney-related disorders is dehydration. A diet high in protein and saturated fats like Atkins is very dehydrating, and will eventually lead to disease and potentially death.
However, where you have a healthy balance of lean high quality protein, unprocessed carbohydrates and raw fats/oils, and drink plenty of pure water your kidney function will be enhanced and will have only positive effects on your health.
