Similar with high creatinine level, high blood urea nitrogen is also often regarded as a sign for kidney failure patient, which means the kidneys are damaged severely. Then what does high blood urea nitrogen (BUN) 9.3 mean for kidney failure patients?

The normal BUN level is 3.2-7.1 mmol/L, and the BUN 9.3 is higher than the normal level, which means the kidneys have been damaged severely. Urea nitrogen is the waste product of protein break down in body, which is mainly excreted by kidneys. When the kidneys are damaged, the urea nitrogen cant be excreted by kidneys normally. So BUN 9.3 means a low kidney function for kidney failure patients.

Here are some suggestions for high BUN 9.3 patients to live a better life.

1. Limit the protein intake

Since urea nitrogen is the waste product of protein break down in blood, so patients need to limit their protein intake, which can produce less urea nitrogen and reduce the kidney burden. However, since protein is an necessary nutrition for people to support their physical condition, they also need to take proper amount of protein in their daily diet. Doctors often recommend patients to take high quality protein which can cause less urea nitrogen. Besides, they also need to follow some other dietary principles. You can research the page of Best Diet to Lower High BUN Level.

2. Improve kidney function

We know that the basic cause of high BUN level 9.3 is mainly caused by the low kidney function, so patients need to have effective treatment to improve their kidney function. Here we recommend Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for kidney failure patients with high BUN 9.3, which can help repair the damaged kidney tissues and improve kidney function.

Once the kidney function is improved, it will help kidney failure patients lower their high BUN level naturally.
