Experts Discuss Effects of Protein Intake on Liver, Kidneys, and Overall Health

Protein is essential for muscle growth, tissue repair, and overall body functions, with recommended daily intake ranging from 0.8 to 1.5 grams per kilogram of body weight depending on activity levels. However, excessive protein consumption can strain organs such as the liver and kidneys, potentially leading to dehydration and increased metabolic workload. Maintaining balanced protein intake supports health, while overconsumption may cause adverse effects, especially in individuals with pre-existing organ conditions.
