How do supplements effect your kidneys and liver?

[Karl Kox]

Such as pre workouts, creatine, protein powders, red bulls etc?

No supplement is good for the liver or kidneys, given that they're the two organs responsible for filtering the impurities and excess nutrients/vitamins in those products.

as long as a person doesnt abuse things his kidneys n liver should b fine

You should look up FDA studies...oh wait, there are none,  ask the manufacturers about their lab tests...oh wait, there are none.

That's why you ask these type of questions on getbig, because everyone here is a Doctor if an expert.

I used to take creatine, preworkout and whey protein. I quit all that shit and now just eat food. No way I'm gonna fuck up my organs so some supplement company can make cash. You think for a second that they give a shit about your health, no way. They want quick cash and nothing more.

Everything peddled by those sell-out pros in the magazines is basically toxic longterm or of dubious value for building muscle or losing fat. It's all junk.
