Under normal circumstances, protein, a plant that people eat in the body, undergoes metabolic changes, and finally most of it becomes nitrogen-containing waste, which is excreted by the kidneys. When people reach old age, the ability of kidney to excrete waste decreases. At this time, if people do not pay attention to diet, eat a lot of tofu and eat too much plant protein, it will inevitably increase the nitrogen-containing waste generated in the body, increase the burden on the kidney, and further decline the renal function, which is not conducive to health.
