[NeverEvenBegan]

It raises creatinine, BUN, and phosphorus levels. From my understanding, it's the phosphoric acid and synthetic caramel color that causes these issues. The aspartame is also not good for the microbiome, but that's a separate issue.

DNW, never drank sugary shit like that. Back then I used to eat a ton of stuff like that, but man, the stomach pains were not worth it.

Creatinine and phosphorus aren't bad though.

I don't know much about nitrogen.

Creatinine and phosphorus aren't bad though.

In both cases, there's a normal range, but it's better to be on the lower end than on the higher end of that range.

My creatinine and phosphorus are generally too high. I've also damaged my kidneys by taking way too much ibuprofen a few years ago when i was in agonizing pain due to health problems.

Oh I'm sorry to hear that. I do think NSAIDs are pretty bad news. I actually mostly take low doses of codeine for pain instead (as needed) because I don't like NSAIDs.

I hope your health has improved at least in some ways.

Coincidentally, my phosphorus is too low! It was significantly low in 2023 apparently and now it's a tiny bit low. I've ordered some phosphatidylcholine for the phosphorus and choline.

You can monitor your kidney health quite well with urine tests but you probably already know that
