Answers:
It isn't too much protein that causes kidney problems, it's too little carbs!.
If you don't lift you don't need "excessive" ammounts!. But you are doing athletics, and you don't weigh much, so I would say where you are is just fine!. A gram a pound for someone who doesn't lift is considered very good!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is no proper scientific evidence that backs up that theory!.
1g per pound of body is absolutely fine!. You only need to boost it up if you are lifting and either building muscle or cutting body fat!.
Do not worry at all!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
