We have mistakenly gotten used to thinking we need a large amount of protein. What happens to the excess animal protein we consume?

I recommend a diet low in animal protein for patients with chronic kidney disease. It is advisable to eat mainly deep-water fish (less polluted) and organic free-range eggs) It is permissible to consume goat milk and yogurt. It is recommended to minimize the consumption of meat and dairy products. Proteins, especially animal proteins, are difficult to digest, creating an acidic intestinal environment that encourages the proliferation of pathogens. Digesting proteins places a heavy and unwanted burden on an already weak liver and kidneys.

An adult needs about one gram per kg of weight. In practice in the modern world (in developed countries), consuming proteins (mainly from animals) is 3 to 4 times the body's needs for tissue regeneration. The surplus is intended to produce energy (calories). Each protein turns to ammonia (NH3); later, in the liver, it is neutralized into uric acid, urinated, and eliminated by the kidneys through the urine. However, it is a process that puts a lot of strain on the liver and kidneys, and the entire physiological system is already impaired in CKD patients.
