Is plant protein powder bad for kidneys?Updated 6 months ago

Plant-based protein powder is generally considered safe for most people. Protein metabolism does put some strain on the kidneys, as they are responsible for filtering waste products from protein breakdown. In individuals with healthy kidneys, this is typically not a concern. 

However, people with kidney disease ore compromised kidney function may need to seek advice from a health care professional as some individuals may need to limit overall protein intake to reduce the workload on their kidneys.
