Common Questions and Answers about Excess protein problem
protein
A repeat showed my eGFR was up to 61 and a trace protein in my urine, along with ++ epithilial cells and white bloods cells. Repeat bloods two weeks later showed that my eGFR had come up to 70, and I had no protein in my urine! I am confused if not a little worried! As soon as I found out I have modified already the amount of protein in my diet, stopped drinking cola (do I need to?) and have weaned myself of Topirimate and Sertreline that I have been taking for a couple of years.
Hello,
Your symptoms are suggestive of keratosis pilaris. It occurs when the human body produces excess keratin, a natural protein in the skin. There is currently no known cure for keratosis pilaris, however, there are effective treatments available which make its symptoms less apparent. Treatment includes tretinoin or Triamcinolone cream or Adapalene, a retinoid medication.
The consistency of stool and its color could be due to excess nut intake. Nothing in excess is good for the body. Take a balanced diet of fruits, vegetables, animal protein, carbohydrates, cereals and nuts. In all probability your symptoms will settle down.
Hope this helps. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
I was thinking of starting working out again after a long time and I was wondering weather using Protein shakes could have any adverse affects on my acid reflux? If so Is there any special one i could take that would not bother my acid reflux. And btw the manuka honey is working for me better than any of the medications has ever done.
Thank you for your time.
This happens due to excess amino acids in sweat (which are breakdown products of protein), seen common with a high protein diet. Also if the diet is rich in cheese, then bacteria of staphylococcus type acts on the sweat and causes this smell of vinegar.
Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Take care!
I have been doing some reading on protein drinks.Everything says that as long as there are no artificial sweeteners, it is fine. They also say that it may add some unwanted pounds due to the excess calories, so be aware of your intake if weight gain is a problem for you.
I have recently stopped drinking anything with sugar and consuming any type of fast food burgers and fries. What is the best way to burn away the excess body fat from these problem areas? Is it simply just burning more calories a day than what I consume in food per day? Please, any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
the current recommended daily intake of protein is 46 grams for women aged 19–70 Any excess protein consumed is turned into energy by the body, and it is controversial whether this excess protein causes a strain on the liver. A deficiency in protein leads to muscle atrophy, and impaired functioning of the human body in general.
low sodium Parmesan cheese provides the most protein with 41.
Keto is just another high protein diet, and while they have shown some good results short-term, they have not proven out long-term and can be unhealthy as an excess of protein can be harmful. But everyone gets to decide for themselves whether to try a fad diet or go with the tried and true. Up to each individual, as none of the data on nutrition is all that wonderful, unfortunately. Just a hard subject to get a good handle on given the wide variety of people and of foods. Peace.
Not at all, why would you think HIV?
Many people with chronic liver disease are malnourished and require adequate protein to maintain a stable body weight. A diet with adequate protein and energy is therefore recommended.
I have decompensated cirrhosis and HE and know many people who are very ill and waiting for a liver transplant. When you very ill and have end-stage liver disease patients have difficulty eating and suffer from muscle wasting because they don't get enough protein.
i am suffering from inflammation of intestine due to which my c reactive protein level is higher than normal. does this put me at risk for heart problems????
My husband has the exact same problem. After eating, and it doesn't matter what, as well as other times of the day he has excess mucus in his throat and he feels like he has to cough. He has seen his primary care physician, an ENT, and a gastroenterologist. He has had an upper GI done and allergy testing. He is trying Prilosec, but after 6 or 7 weeks, it hasn't helped. We are desperate to find a solution to this excess mucus.
s very difficult to eat THAT much protein on a daily basis! I would love to expiriement with a diet made up of 25% fat, 25% protein, and 50% carbs, although, I fear it will make me gain weight, which I am not looking to do.
Some sources have stated that it's a matter of total calories, while others have emphasized high protein diets increasing the metabolism. I don't want to start gaining weight, but am curiouse as to what would come of redistributing my macronutrients?
Higher protein works for some and protein DOES help fill you up and keep you full longer; however, I caution against too much protein. You need to make sure you get enough vitamin b6 when on a high protein diet. I, also have found that I have a hard time breaking down protein and I take daily enzymes to help with that.
All things in moderation.
Hi,
What initial diagnostic tests were done? Albuminuria often refers to proteinuria and if the filtration system of the kidney's glomeruli has a problem, larger particles than usual may pass through. Heavy and persistent proteinuria may indeed result in hypo-albuminaemia which presents with ankle swelling, abdominal pain and breathlessness.
However, while CPAP may lower BP during the night [preventing the adrenalin rush to breath by forcing you to breath], my high BP was attributed as the cause for my kidney misfunction of leaking too much protein into the urine. Here inlies the issue. Is the excess protein leakage being really caused by the high BP, or is it being caused by, or augmented by increased gas pressure that is caused by the aerophagia?
Hi I have pain behind my breastbone and slightly to the left side under my ribs, with excess gas and bloating to my stomach. I have also have heartburn occasionally. This has got progressively worse in the past year since having an endoscopy which found nothing untoward other than inflammation due to excess stomach acid.
I am getting on track with eating a more balanced diet with protein, carbs that are lower in sugar, and fruits only in the AM to burn off any sugar that is in the fruit. I have tried compression hose and my feet and ankles still swell. I do have a problem when walking as the swelling makes my ankles, feet and legs feel very heavy. There is no discoloration however they do look much whiter as they swell.
Hi Yank, Well you could just ry masturbating a few more times a week and see if you can clear yourself out, try daily for 2 weeks and see how its looking, it could be that its just a backlog and needs a clean out.
