That "high protein hurts your " myth needs to retire.


 



"Eating high protein makes our kidneys work extra hard, so high protein is bad for the kidneys." - Many will have heard this.


How does this argument apply to other parts of the body?


"Exercising makes your muscles work extra hard, so exercising is bad for muscles."


"Study makes your brain work extra hard, so studying is bad for the brain."


“Sports or Running makes your heart work extra hard, so playing sports or running is bad for your heart.”


I think it will work even if I don't give any more arguments.


But for those who are not satisfied with these words - those who have a bad heart, running is a problem, not for those who have a good heart. Also, it is a problem for those who have kidney problems, but normally high protein does not damage the kidneys.


whose Kidneys need dialysis, they also need to drink water, but that does not mean that drinking too much water is bad for normal people.


For those who are not satisfied with this, let me tell you about a study done in 2016. There are many studies on this, but the reason to mention this is that it was done over a full year, so long-term studies are not commonly available.


Here are people who do strength training 3-4 days a week per kg of body weightIn contrast, 3.4 grams of protein are provided. But this is extremely high protein. (For muscle building where 1.5-2 grams of protein is enough).


After 1 year, there was no negative effect on their kidneys.


Just to be clear, no one eats this level of protein, not even a bodybuilder. 


There's nothing to fear about So Protein, it won't damage your kidneys!


The bottom line? Don't let a myth rob you of the benefits of protein. It's time to train your nutrition beliefs as hard as you train your body.


I'm curious: What's one health "fact" you believed for years that you later found out was a myth? Share below! 👇

The consequences of not paying Zakat!

  The consequences of not paying Zakat! All the decrees of Allah are for the universal welfare of man. Every command and prohibition of Allah Ta'ala has two types of results or consequences. An afterlife will be found and that is the key. The consequences of disobeying His orders are still felt today, though many times people do not realize it. Consequences of not paying Zakat: First of all: Since the wealth of the rich has the right of the poor and destitute, if Zakat is not paidProperty remains the property of others. As a result it is not holy. Allah does not bless impure wealth and the possessor of that wealth is deprived of Allah's mercy. Not only that, the people who do not pay Zakat or Sadaqah, Allah sends worldly punishments like drought and famine on them. The Prophet (PBUH) said, "If a community refuses to give Zakat, Allah punishes them with famine" (Tabarani). Secondly:Rasulullah (SAW) said, "Whoever gives zakat in the hope of reward, there...
