Don’t Eat Too Much Shellfish
While sometimes seafood has some major health benefits, eating too much shellfish will start to hurt your kidneys over some time. Researched from the 2014 Journal of the American Society of Nephrology found that shellfish contains a harmful, if not toxic, chemical called domoic acid. This is also called “Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning”, and it can severely injure your kidneys. Even in low quantities, this acid can still harm your kidneys. Eating a lot of seafood doesn’t have as many benefits as people think, and it does much more harm than people realize.

While most people don’t generally get MRIs very often, they can still be quite harmful to your kidneys. The dye they use to contrast colors in your body can cause problems for you. The side effect of these dyes is a new disease called Contrast Induced Nephropathy (CIN). This disease causes kidneys to completely fail for up to three days. Luckily CIN is reversible, but it is still dangerous.
