People often worry about protein and kidney damage, but the truth is: protein is not a concern unless you already have kidney failure.

What really damages your kidneys? Chronically high insulin and blood sugar. Every time you eat excess sugar, starches, or fructose (like from added sugars or high-fructose corn syrup), your pancreas pumps out insulin. Over time, this constant cycle of high glucose and insulin puts stress on your kidneys.

Natural sources like fruit come with fiber and nutrients, which make them much less harmful compared to processed sugars. Vegetables are low in carbs and don’t overload your system.

Bottom line: don’t fear protein — focus on reducing sugar and managing insulin for long-term kidney health.
