Hyperproteinemia is the state of having overly high levels of protein in the blood. This can occur due to monoclonal gammopathies such as multiple myeloma and after intravenous immunoglobulin has been given. [1] It can result in a falsely low appearing sodium level (hyponatremia). [1]
The participants who ate protein from the widest variety of sources had a reduced risk of developing high blood pressure. That’s some serious motivation to proiritize the satisfying macronutrient.
Middle-aged men who follow high-protein diets, such as the Atkins, may be at higher risk of heart failure, according to a new research. Middle-aged men who follow high-protein diets, such as the ...
Diagnosis is generally based on a blood phosphate level exceeding 1.46 mmol/L (4.5 mg/dL). [1] Levels may appear falsely elevated with high blood lipid levels, high blood protein levels, or high blood bilirubin levels. [1] Treatment may include a phosphate low diet and antacids like calcium carbonate that bind phosphate. [1]
Recent research suggests that patients with elevated basal levels of CRP are at an increased risk of diabetes, [41] [42] hypertension and cardiovascular disease. A study of over 700 nurses showed that those in the highest quartile of trans fat consumption had blood levels of CRP that were 73% higher than those in the lowest quartile. [43]
“Sugary cereals and pastries are high in refined sugars, which can lead to weight gain, increased blood sugar levels and a higher risk of developing heart disease,” explains Sergiu Darabant, M ...
Protein toxicity is the effect of the buildup of protein metabolic waste compounds, like urea, uric acid, ammonia, and creatinine.Protein toxicity has many causes, including urea cycle disorders, genetic mutations, excessive protein intake, and insufficient kidney function, such as chronic kidney disease and acute kidney injury.
Traditional risk factors for heart disease include obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels. Testing for Lp(a) and CRP can reveal less obvious risk factors.
