WTF? high kidney values from high protein/ supps?

creatine can hurt your kidney over time. thats part of why people suggest time off with it. especially if you don't drink enough water it doesn't get flushed out and can lead to kidney stones eventually

He said, cre-at-in, not creatine, I asked if that was what he meant (reg Dr)...

The specialist, said the cre-at-in values may be high be cause of the muscle break down of a heavy weight trainer...

I will do some searches to see if there is a link between creatine and kidney function... if there is, I will drop it, b/c I just saw a study (didn't finish reading it yet) that doesn' find a link in high protein creating a kidney problem...
if there is a pre-existing problem, high protein is a problem, tho.. W/ all the high proteind diets, I shouldn't be the only person w/ high values...

I only use creatine on WO days, incidently..

ya too much protein can kill ur kidneys..back in the 80s ...600grams of protein a day wasnt all that uncommon to the average BB and most of the were on dialysis or dead form kidney failure....its just a valuable lesson that not always more is better!

I don't know dude, this study says there is no link: http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/2/1/25
