For people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) or reduced kidney function, diet plays a significant role in managing health. Too much protein can strain already weakened kidneys. In such cases, doctors often recommend limiting protein intake, and eggs may need to be consumed in moderation or avoided depending on individual dietary guidelines.
So, the concern isn’t about eating eggs at night specifically—it’s about overall protein load for people with kidney problems.

-
Digestion slows down while you sleep, which can cause discomfort in some people.

-
Acidity or bloating from eating close to bedtime may affect sleep quality.
But again, these are general digestive issues, not direct harm to your kidneys.
