Just read a study about consumption of protein in the diet and bone density. Basically says the protein helps you absorb calcium to make healthy bones.
Protein and Bones
That old "conventional wisdom" theory about how protein somehow "leaches" calcium out of your bones just won't die...just where do these ideas come from? Outer Space for sure...
This one you HAVE to read..."...there are no definitive nutrition intervention studies that show a detrimental effect of a high protein diet on the skeleton and the hypothesis remains unproven."

Paleo man and woman ate plenty of protein and their kidneys were fine.
