Dr. Berg talks about higher levels of BUN (blood urea nitrogen) on a ketogenic diet. When you get a urine test, BUN is one of the tests that you will see. This represents the protein waste (urea) that is not being dealt with properly by the liver. There are a few common causes. And of course, there are rarer causes too, which I am not going to talk about. But this podcast is about developing higher BUN right after doing keto.

CHECK FOR THESE ISSUES:

1. Excessive exercise without recovery

2. Not enough vegetables (dandelion greens are great)

3. Low thyroid

4. Damage to the kidneys

5. Damage to the liver

6. High protein diets
