10 Common Habits That Can Damage Your Kidneys

3. Eating a lot of meat

Overconsumption of animal protein creates a lot of acid in your blood that can cause acidosis, a condition when your kidneys can’t keep your body’s pH in balance. With time, this disorder may cause severe digestive issues and chronic kidney problems.

The recommended daily intake of protein is about 1-1.6 grams per kilogram of body weight. So, instead of eating too much meat, try to consume more fruits and vegetables and include different types of protein like eggs, fish, beans, and nuts into your diet.
