Abstract in brief

  • Rapid weight loss (RWL) in combat sport athletes often leads to dehydration and potential kidney damage, as indicated by increased levels of creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and urine specific gravity in multiple studies.
  • Despite its high prevalence, RWL is linked to health complications and performance issues, highlighting the need for safer weight management methods.
  • The research emphasizes that quick weight reduction methods can harm kidney function, suggesting that alternative, healthier approaches to weight loss should be adopted to protect athletes' health.
