Also, make sure you drink plenty of water after having protein shakes. I can't remember the exact reason why, but it has to do with your kidneys needing to be properly hydrated. If someone else can remember the exact reason feel free to elaborate.

Ya, your kidneys do need water in order to dispose of excess uric acid in your blood. The uric acid levels go up if you eat more protein, so water intake should go up accordingly so that you don't get kidney stones and such.
