Your kidneys are remarkable organs. But, they’re vulnerable to damage from various foods and substances, which can lead to serious health issues.

7 foods that destroy the kidneys:

1. Instant noodles
Instant noodles often contain the preservative TBHQ, which is toxic to the kidneys.

2. Foods high in artificial dyes
Foods like Skittles contain dyes that can wreak havoc on your kidneys.

3. Fried chicken
The combination of high heat, seed oils, and breading in fried chicken can lead to glycation—a process that clogs everything up, especially in the kidneys.

4. Commercial bread
Commercial bread is loaded with potassium bromate, a harmful chemical linked to kidney cancer.

5. Soda
Soda contains phosphoric acid, which is harmful to the kidneys. It’s also high in sugar, which contributes to diabetes—the number one cause of kidney damage.

6. Agave syrup
Often falsely marketed as healthy, agave syrup is high in fructose, which puts immense stress on the liver and kidneys.

7. Cereals
Cereals are packed with refined sugar, seed oil, and refined starch. They also often contain glyphosate, a harmful pesticide.

Kidney disease prevention is key. Avoid bad habits that damage the kidneys, like consuming the foods above, and focus on a diet that supports kidney function.
