Animal fat, protein, and cholesterol are the three main risk factors involved in damaging kidneys. Animal fat severely alters the structure of kidneys.

Animal protein undermines normal kidney function by severely increasing its workload, putting extreme pressure on the kidneys. The same amount of plant protein has no adverse effect on the kidneys.
