The problems surrounding acesulfame K are based on the improper testing and lack of long-term studies. Acesulfame K does contain the carcinogen methylene chloride. Long-term exposure to methylene chloride can cause headaches, depression, nausea, mental confusion, liver effects, kidney effects, visual disturbances, and cancer in humans. There has been a great deal of opposition to the use of acesulfame K without further testing, but at this time, the FDA has not required that these tests be done.
Trichomoniasis does not damage the kidneys.
A kidney stone can cause damage to the kidney.

One medication is spironolactone. This medication is a potassium-sparing diuretic that prevents potassium from entering into the kidney.
Kidney failure and damage to red blood cells cause 15% of patients deaths and half the survivors develop chronic kidney failure, requiring dialysis.

Urinalysis is used to diagnose many different problems. It can test for urinary tract infection, blood sugar problems, kidney damage, imbalance in calcium, phosphorus, potassium, etc.
No. Potassium, sodium and chloride all work together to maintain the bodies fluid pH levels, muscle contraction and relaxation and the maintenance of nerve transmission and function. Deficiency in either of these usually tend to address hypertension, difficulty digesting (chloride deficiency with hydrochloric acid as its component) and heart/kidney damage.
The fat the surrounds the kidney has a very importance purpose. It protects the kidney from damage and harm such as punctures.
Potassium, fiber, protein, iron, magnesium, and carbohydrates.
