all right so today we’re gonna discuss

the five symptoms or ways of knowing

you’re consuming too much protein okay

number one foamy urine okay this is a

situation where you have protein

spilling off into the urine

normally you don’t have a lot of protein

in the urine you shouldn’t have anything

maybe just this very small amount so if

there’s protein in the urine it can

become foamy now if you have protein the

urine potentially it could be liver

disease but it could also mean you’re

just consuming too much protein cut it

back and see if it goes away because

your kidneys actually filter about a

hundred and eighty liters of fluid every

single day I mean think about it

maybe you consumed two liters of fluid

your kidneys are filtering it all day

long so it’s filtering the blood over

and over and over and only a tiny 2% of

it is excreted as urine so there’s it’s

very very efficient so if you have too

much protein you can overload the

kidneys overload the liver and it can

spill off into the urine number two

gout okay now usually gout is a liver or

kidney problem okay but if you’re adding

more protein to it you can get an

incomplete protein breakdown and

generate too much uric acid and create

these gout crystals number three

decrease appetite okay that could be one

of the symptoms and before fluid

retention or edema you may see a little

swelling or even in your ankles some

pitting edema you press into your ankle

and it kind of leaves a dent in there

and number five

fatigue okay so these are the five

symptoms of consuming too much protein

now let’s say for example you’re on one

meal a day all mad and you’re fasting

okay and you’re eating more protein than

you should well what happens is like you

have if you’re eating one meal a day you

have like 23 hours to fast and you have

so much repair going on you can probably

get away with it very easily without

creating any problem to the kidney or a

liver because the benefits of that

fasting are huge

just for in repair in general so if

you’re just eating that one meal you

could do a good amount of protein more

than usual but typically it’s good to

consume a moderate amount of protein not

too little not too much just an average

amount between like 3 to 6 maybe up to 8

ounces per meal okay depending on your

your age depending on your digestive

system depending how big you are okay

but this is the range that seems to work

out best alright I’ll see you in the

next video
