Kidney Stress and Disease: Coffee and Red Wine

Many factors can stress the kidneys, such as heavy metals, infections, detox programs, and mold (mycotoxins). Low nitric oxide levels can contribute to kidney stress. Resveratrol is known for its heart-protective benefits, and this is why red wine, in moderation, is often linked to heart health. Reducing caffeine intake is also important, as it can inhibit nitric oxide production and put extra stress on the kidneys.
