A study found that consuming more protein from plant-based sources reduces the risk of chronic kidney disease, as opposed to animal-based proteins that can strain the kidneys. The study, published in the American Journal of Kidney Diseases, involved 117,809 participants and detailed their dietary habits and protein intake from both animal and plant sources. Plant-based proteins, sourced from vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds, and grains, were identified as beneficial for kidney health, with vegetables' protein absorption rate being particularly low. The study suggests that opting for plant-based proteins may be a safer choice for kidney protection.
