Blood protein levels fall and fluid shifts to the tissues.
Edema can occur with severe lack of dietary protein due to decreased levels of albumin in the blood, which helps maintain the balance of fluids in the body. When albumin levels drop, fluid can leak out of blood vessels and accumulate in tissues, leading to swelling or edema. Replenishing protein in the diet can help increase albumin levels and reverse the edema.
PKU is characterized by the inability to convert the amino acid phenylanine into the amino acid tyrosine. If dietary intake persists then symptoms as severe as brain damage could ensue. Amino acids ,like phenylanine and tyrosine, are the building blocks of protein.
Liquid protein diets can work, but not without some severe consequences. A liquid diet can cause bowel damage, and upset your stomach because our bodies are designed to process solid foods. Also, too much protein in the diet can damage the kidneys.
Negative nitrogen balance
Because liver is more important, more severe. It has any range of functions, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and
When he/she appears sad. They may have minor to severe nausea and vomiting
A disease caused by lack of all macronutriets (carbohydrates, fats, and protein) is kwashiorkor. Symptoms include a swollen abdomen, cracking and scaly skin, and reddish hair. The mortality is about 60% and it also affects a person's physical and mental development.Another related disease is Marasmus. Marasmus is caused by a lack of protein. This is generally less severe than Kwashiorikor.
Most patients with mild or moderate heart failure can be successfully treated with dietary and exercise programs and the right medications.
A no protein and no sodium diet is next to nonexistent because so many necessary foods contain at least trace amounts of protein. This diet is defined as the reduction of protein in the diet to reduce stress on certain diseased organs. Low sodium is important for the prevention of certain health problems, and a reduction in this mineral is less harmful to the body than a severe reduction in protein.
Marasmus is a condition involving both severe protein deficiency and markedly inadequate intake of calories. Kwashiorkor is a condition involving severe protein deficiency, but in the context of sufficient or only mildly deficient intake of carbohydrates and calories, overall.
Eczema
Kwashiorkor - when the diet is deficient in protein but contains adequate calories. which are derived mainly from carbohydrates.Marasmus - when the diet is low in both protein and calories.I'm not sure what they are looking for as the third.
