Reduce Butter Habits

Lately, it has become somewhat of a trend for people to recommend replacing butter with margarine. However, it might not be the best idea for the sake of your kidneys. Margarine contains different, but still harmful things in it. The fats that are found in both butter and margarine raise cholesterol levels, which is dangerous for the kidneys. Having small amounts of butter isn’t dangerous, but don’t eat it every day.

Don’t Overeat

During the holiday season especially, people seem to forget the amount of food that should be eaten in a meal on average. Overeating can seriously strain the kidneys, and the more you eat, the more your kidneys have to sort through. The most deadly eating combination is consuming too much protein, carbs, and fat together. Seeing as most holiday dinners include all three, it’s important to be careful about what you’re putting in your body.
