In this episode of Kidney Doc, we discuss the common misconception that drinking more water can help improve kidney function, especially in individuals with chronic kidney disease. We share the story of Tom, a patient who experienced negative side effects from following advice to drink a large amount of water. We also discuss recent research that suggests a U-shaped curve when it comes to water intake and kidney function.
