Question

why urea production is high when person diet contain more protein than is need for growth and repair?

Answer 1

As excess proteins cannot be stored in the human body (like glucose is stored as glycogen; since the simpler forms of proteins are toxic ) thus it gets converted to urea and the production of urea is increased.

Answer 2

Answer:

Protein is a macro nutrient required by the body, you would need.

8 per Kg of body weight per day.

As per RDA, one needs to meet the minimum daily requirement of protein and not the maximum.

Many a time, it has been to build muscles, people consume more than the required amount.

Since protein is made up of amino acids, excessive consumption makes it difficult for the liver concert this excess of nitrogen to waste product called urea.

This may further lead to diarrhea and nausea.
