Your liver, not your kidneys, is responsible for removing alcohol from your body. So, unless you prefer to do so, there is no need to give up alcohol completely if you have ADPKD and are otherwise healthy. But it is important to keep to recommended limits:
· Two to three alcohol-free days a week
· No more than 3-4 units a day for men
· 2-3 units a day for women.
Too much alcohol is bad for you because:
· Alcoholic drinks contain a lot of calories, so they can make it more difficult to keep to a healthy weight.
· Alcohol raises your blood pressure, increasing your risk of kidney damage, and heart disease and strokes.
· It can increase the risk of some cancers.
· It can cause liver problems
· It can interact with some prescription medications.

ReplyDeleteI would like to thank Ultimate Life Clinic for reversing my father’s Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). My father’s ALS condition was fast deteriorating before he started on the ALS Herbal medicine treatment from Ultimate Life Clinic. He was on the treatment for just 6 months and we never thought my father will recover so soon. He has gained some weight in the past months and he is able to walk with no support.
