I like tofu, so I usually eat a lot more. I heard that eating too much tofu will cause kidney failure. Isn't that the case?

    Eating too much tofu will affect kidney function. Under normal circumstances, the metabolic changes in the plant protein that people eat into the body eventually become most nitrogen-containing waste that is excreted by the kidneys. In old age, the kidneys' ability to excrete waste declines. At this time, if you do not pay attention to your diet, eat a lot of tofu, and consume too much plant protein, it will inevitably increase the nitrogen-containing waste generated in the body, increase the burden on the kidneys, and make kidney function Further decline will not benefit your health.
