  1. I hope some qualified person will post some reliable
    information on protein. Is it one organic chemical? What is
    the process when it is used for energy?. Someone told me it
    is an involved items with several amino acids. What is the
    mechanism and chemicals that could cause kidney problems? I
    want facts. Guy

    No, millions. It's a class of chemicals which can be
    indefinitely extended, much as the alphabet is finite but
    the words it can spell are infinite.

    It's broken into the constituent amino acids which are
    deaminated and synthesised into glucose.

    It is.

    problems? I want facts.

    It's a consequence of high blood sugar eventually damaging
    the kidneys and causing leakage of large molecules, e.g,
    proteins, into the urine. The kidneys cease to be able to do
    their blood filtration job, because in effect the pores of
    the filter have become too large.
