Mr. N. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. Milk, milk products like curds, butter milk, cheese, ghee etc are not harmful to kidney at all. In a person with diabetes it is better to avoid high fat containing chees. One can use Mozerella cheese which has less fat and more proteins. Curds & butter milk are really good as they provide good nutrition and also are probiotics. Thanks.
