Take high levels of proteins can conduce to unbalance your acid-base.

It can cause exhaustion, high blood pressure, etc.. To avoid that be sure to eat a lot of vegetables, water with lemons...

More than 1.5g/2g per kg (ex: 50 kg = 75-100g of proteins each day) is considered as useless by mosts of lifters. You will have no benefit after this point.

High protein intake is not associated with an increased risk of gout.[1] People who are physically active are also less likely than the general population to develop gout.[2]

If you're not an alcoholic and you're not obese, you really have no reason to worry.
