Olivia has been trying an extreme diet based on consuming only protein for almost every meal and snack. She also isn’t drinking enough water. Her doctor tells her she needs to find more balance and nutrients in her diet before she causes harm to her organs. Which organ is MOST likely to suffer if she continues to overconsume protein and under consume water?

Answer
A
kidneys
B
stomach
C
liver
D
spleen

Explanation

The kidneys are most likely to suffer because they filter waste products produced when the body breaks down protein. Drinking too little water can make it harder to flush these wastes out and may strain the kidneys. The correct choice is kidneys.
