Hi Lisa!!! :Wave: Nice to hear from you.
Well, I think you are on the wrong thread (Didn't you want to post this in Lonnie's thread?)
We are speaking about water consumption in here, not kidney dysfunction. Like, How much water we should drink in a High Protein Diet?
Also, all your links have the following comment on the bottom of the page, and the sources come from THE ATKINS CENTER.
Quote:
The findings of this study can be applied to the Atkins Principle of Good Health. A controlled carbohydrate nutritional approach, which may tend to be high in dietary protein consumption, may not alter kidney function. Subjects in this study, consuming 100 grams of protein or more per day, had kidney function equivalent to those eating 30 grams of protein per day.

So, ATKINS diet is a High Protein or "Adequate" protein?
What is adequate and what is High protein intake? That is the reason of the posts in the percentages posted from the links I found.
"Everybody can document their findings. Just like statistics, - it's all about the way you use the results of the tests or research. And Is good to compare points of views." - I stold this phrase from a Great friend.

Is not my personal opinion -and yes, the sources are varied. But I want to clear my doubts, and know what is the PERCENTAGE of an ADEQUATE and what is the Percentage of what they call a HIGH protein diet.
Many Many sources speak about the importance of drinking more water than the recommended daily intake for people on High Protein Diets.
Please comment Thank you Lisa.
