Two Cans of Soda Per Day Linked with Kidney Damage in Women
February 11th, 2009 by Nina Thompson, ARNP
Women who drink two or more cans of regular soda a day may be increasing their risk of kidney damage, according to researchers at Loyola University Medical Center . Diet soda intake was not associated with any signs of early kidney disease, and men who drank moderate amounts of regular soft drinks did not have any adverse effects.

I am afraid both diet and regular sodas are associated with kidney stone formation which is the mechanism of renal injury here.
Maybe drinking green tea may be of benefite.
