| This study was conducted to examine the effect of chronic consumption of (Green cola stevia "soda beverage", red bull " energy beverage" , Red tea and Turkish coffee) on kidney functions of female rats . Experimental study was conducted according to the guidelines of Animal Care and Ethics Committee of the NRC as well as the biochemical analysis at the Postgraduate Lab of Home Economics Faculty – Helwan University. Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats (180 ± 5 g) rats were divided into 5 groups as follows Group (1) was fed on basal diet (as a control negative group). Group (2) was fed on basal diet and given orally ( 2 ml of Green cola stevia once a day).Group (3) was fed on basal diet and given orally (2 ml of red bull once a day).Group (4) was fed on basal diet and given orally (2 ml of Red tea once a day).Group (5) was fed on basal diet and given orally (2 ml of Turkish coffee once a day). Biological evaluation of the diet was performed by determining the feed intake, body weight gain, and feed efficiency. At the end of the experimental period (8 weeks), the rats were slaughtered to obtain blood serum. The serum was used to determine kidney function: urea, uric acid, and creatinine; Serum Vitamin D and calcium . Serum glucose and insulin and liver function (aspartate aminotransferase activity and alanine aminotransferase activity). The results showed a significant decrease in liver function, , significant increases in urea, creatinine, and uric acid in the groups administrated Green cola stevia "soda beverage", red bull " energy beverage" , Red tea and Turkish coffee as compared to the positive control group, while blood proteins (albumin, total protein, and final body weight) of the group administrated Green cola stevia "soda beverage", red bull " energy beverage" , Red tea and Turkish coffee decreased significantly .Also insulin decreased significantly while glucose increased significantly as compared to the positive control group . the results also cleared that calcium and vitamin D deceased significantly in the group administrated Green cola stevia "soda beverage", red bull " energy beverage" , Red tea and Turkish coffee. | ||||
