Your BUN is elevated while you are following a low calorie, low protein diet. What is the best reason why?
anabolism
catabolism
increased nitrogenous waste production
dehydration
Homework Answers
BUN is the blood urea nitrogen is a waste product of protein metabolism. there are many factors influencing BUN, such as protein breakdown, hydration status and liver failure.normal adult range is 7-20mg/100 ml.
since BUN is elevated with low-calorie protein diet anabolism and catabolism, not an answer. since low protein diet, nitrogenous waste production would be low.
thus, the answer would be dehydration. due to lack of fluid to excrete waste products. low fluid results in decreased urine flow lead to increased urea reabsorption due to the action of antidiuretic hormone.

2. Renal Function and Dialysis Metabolism of protein in your diet produces urea as a byproduct. The rate of urea production (r_u) depends on how much protein you eat and how big you are (measured by your body fluid volume, V). A realistic urea production rate for an average person (\/=40 L) is about r_u= 15 mg/min. Urea produced in the liver is rapidly distributed throughout the body's fluid volume V; the average urea concentration in the body's fluids is...
