Clinical Protocol

7-Day BUN Regulation Plan

Diet for Blood Urea Nitrogen. High BUN indicates dehydration or high protein load; Low BUN indicates low protein/liver issues.

Protocol Objectives
High BUN

Usually dehydration or too much protein. Drink water and reduce meat intake temporarily.

Low BUN

Low protein diet or liver issue. Increase protein intake.

Hydration

The most common fix for high BUN is simply drinking more water.

Plant Protein

Creates less urea waste than animal protein. Good for high BUN.
