A member asked:

Is kidney damage the same as kidney disease and am i ok to drink fruit tea?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

About the same: Really just wordplay here. Any kidney disease can cause kidney damage. The question is, is it acute-reversible; or chronic results in permanent kidney damage. You need to discuss the dietary impact with your nephrologsit.
