What does a low result mean?

A modest excretion rate is typical with plant-forward or lower-protein dietary patterns.

What does a high result mean?

A higher output is common with protein-rich dining (poultry, fish, eggs) and is easily cleared by healthy kidneys.

Questions ready for your doctor

Bring these questions to your next consultation to discuss with your healthcare practitioner:

  • Does this output directly mirror my daily dietary protein intake?
  • How does this harmonize with my blood urea and creatinine values?
  • Are my protein portions well calibrated for my physical needs?
