Nitrogen and Kidney Disease

What is the relationship between nitrogen and kidney disease? When it comes to nitrogen, we will think of blood urea nitrogen immediately. In normal condition, kidney has function of filtration. Nitrogen is a kind of metabolism products, which should be discharged out of the body. However, when kidney disease takes place, nitrogen especially blood urea nitrogen will rise accordingly. So BUN, which is short for blood urea nitrogen is a very significant index which shows the function of kidney.
In detail, BUN (blood urea nitrogen) is the terminal metabolism of protein in the body. Generally, 1g protein can lead to 0.3g urea. Urea contains nitrogen, which accounts for 28/60, nearly reaching as high as half. In normal condition, kidney is the organ which discharges nitrogen. Urea can be reabsorbed after being filtrated through the renal tubules. But the damage of kidney will make a difference. At the beginning, because of the compensation ability, blood urea nitrogen level will not rise. With the damage is serious, there will be increased level of blood urea nitrogen. In this case, the GFR ( glomerular filtration rate) has declined to less than 50%.
For a normal person, the normal range of BUN ( blood urea nitrogen) 3.2-7.1mmol/L(9-20mg/d1). Due to kinds of renal parenchyma lesion, such as renal glomerular nephritis, acute or chronic renal failure, BUN ( blood urea nitrogen) will rise.

Even if the BUN ( blood urea nitrogen) level is out of normal range, we need not worry for we can solve it with specific therapy by repairing the damaged intrinsic cells in the body. In Shijiazhuang kidney disease hospital, we have Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, which can help patients decrease nitrogen in the body by repairing the damaged intrinsic cells and discharging the toxins such as blood urea nitrogen, thus reviving kidney function.
