Question on Caffeine...kidneys?

Question

Doing some research, want to know how many people feel that their kidneys have been adversley affected from the drinking of caffeinated drinks?

I am not talking about having to go to the potty every ten minutes either.

Answer 1

I used to get kidney infections a lot when I was a teenager, till the doctor told me to lay off the caffeine. I started drinking water more, and haven't had one since.

I can take one cup of coffee or coke a day without feeling it, but I have to drink more water afterward. If not, I can feel the infection coming on. I rarely drink anything other than water or fruit juice.

My sister has the same story, only she drinks Sprite. She also still gets them occasionally.

Answer 2

Ingestion of caffeine, especially in amounts exceeding 200 milligrams, can contribute to many psychological and physiological problems, Kidney infection,/  failure, and even kidney cancer all may be due to excessive caffeine intakes.
