Kidney Problems w/ High Protein?!?

[riskybiz007]

Just wondering if having high protein diets or at least 1g/pound of body weight would contribute to kidney problems. My family has a history of cysts in kidneys and i'm scared to overwork them or to have future problems. I take in 200g/day of protein. Is this too much to avoid kidney problems? As of now my kidneys are fine.

Hey man, I was having problems with my kidneys and was not sure if it was from a high amount of protein or from creatine. Turns out it was the creatine and I continue to take in close to 200g of protein a day and no problems, still drink lots of water to keep flushing them though.
