Caught by LOOKING at the live page on 2026-07-30, right after\n   the template was switched to canvas.\n\n   Everything is scoped to `.bp-adv`, so nothing here can reach the rest of\n   bioprofile.com, and core blocks are styled BY ELEMENT so a heading, a\n   paragraph, a quote, a list, an image or a button inserted by hand inside the\n   advertorial comes out on-design with no class to remember.\n\n   Jesse's design feedback, 2026-07-29 23:38, point by point:\n   1. the light green and the dark green are the preferred colours; grey may be\n      used but the page must NOT open grey;\n   2. more colour and variation across sections, e.g. a colour block on the left\n      or the right side of a section, without overdesign;\n   3. ONE H1, plain text on white; everything else H2 or H3; an H2 may carry its\n      own background colour so the page can be read from the headings alone; an\n      H3 keeps its section background and gets a bigger font size;\n   4. reuse the results page design feel;\n   5. Written by \/ Verified by, the placeholder blocks and noindex stay.\n\n   COLOUR PROVENANCE. Not one hex is invented.\n   - #b7cb32  LIGHT GREEN, brand manual \"colours rejuvenation protocol\"\n              (R183 G203 B51). Same value as --bp-lime in\n              brands\/bioprofile\/brand\/tokens.md.\n   - #006b62  DARK GREEN, brand manual, nourish the cells (R0 G107 B98).\n   - #005859  brand manual primary teal, the value the brand is built on.\n   - #228a62  brand manual, challenge the body (R34 G138 B98).\n   - #7ca64c  brand manual, calm the mind (R124 G166 B76).\n   - #dbd4cd  brand manual \"additional color\", the warm neutral.\n   - #B7CB3329 is the brand token --bp-lime-soft (light green at 16 percent).\n   - the gradients are the brand token layer's own, copied verbatim.\n\n   SPECIFICITY NOTE. Elementor's global kit emits `.elementor-kit-6 h2` style\n   rules at (0,1,1). Element rules below are written `.bp-adv h2`, also (0,1,1),\n   and win on source order because this sheet is inline in the body while the\n   kit is a <link> in the head. Component rules that MUST NOT lose carry two\n   classes, e.g. `.bp-adv .wp-block-button__link`.\n\n   LAYOUT NOTE. Vertical rhythm uses `margin-block` and never the `margin`\n   shorthand, so the measure rule `.bp-adv-sec > * { margin-inline: auto }` can\n   centre a block without being outranked by its own element rule.\n   =========================================================================== *\/\n\n.bp-adv {\n  --bp-ink: #212527;\n  --bp-teal: #005859;\n  --bp-forest: #006B62;\n  --bp-emerald: #228A62;\n  --bp-olive: #7CA64C;\n  --bp-lime: #B7CB33;\n  --bp-lime-soft: #B7CB3329;\n  --bp-sand: #DBD4CB;\n  --bp-white: #FFFFFF;\n  --bp-foot: #6b6b6b;\n  --bp-grad-dark: linear-gradient(237deg, rgba(0,88,89,0.00) 62.94%, #005859 100%), linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(34,138,98,0.00) 40%, #228A62 100%), #006B62;\n  --bp-grad-lime: linear-gradient(110deg, rgba(183,203,51,0.00) 36.06%, rgba(183,203,51,0.25) 97.65%), #FFFFFF;\n  --bp-font: 'Poppins','Segoe UI',Arial,sans-serif;\n  --bp-fs-h1: 44px; --bp-fs-h2: 31px; --bp-fs-h3: 24px; --bp-fs-pre: 15px;\n  --bp-fs-body: 17px; --bp-fs-small: 14px; --bp-fs-foot: 13px; --bp-fs-btn: 17px;\n  --bp-lh-body: 1.75;\n  --bp-s-1: 4px; --bp-s-2: 8px; --bp-s-3: 12px; --bp-s-4: 16px;\n  --bp-s-5: 24px; --bp-s-6: 32px; --bp-s-7: 44px; --bp-s-8: 72px;\n  --bp-measure: 760px; --bp-side: 40px;\n  --bp-radius-photo: 16px; --bp-radius-btn: 10px; --bp-radius-card: 20px;\n  --bp-shadow: 0 10px 30px rgba(0,88,89,0.10);\n  font-family: var(--bp-font);\n  font-size: var(--bp-fs-body);\n  line-height: var(--bp-lh-body);\n  color: var(--bp-ink);\n  background: var(--bp-white);\n  -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;\n}\n.bp-adv, .bp-adv * { box-sizing: border-box; }\n.bp-adv p, .bp-adv li, .bp-adv h1, .bp-adv h2, .bp-adv h3, .bp-adv blockquote,\n.bp-adv a, .bp-adv cite, .bp-adv span { overflow-wrap: break-word; min-width: 0; }\n\n\/* THE TOGGLE.

It forms when your body breaks down protein. Your blood carries it to your kidneys, which remove it in your urine.<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Creatinine is also a waste product. It is made when you use your muscles and some of the muscle tissue breaks down. Your kidneys filter it out of your blood and remove it in your urine.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The urea\/creatinine ratio puts those two side by side. MedlinePlus lists the BUN to Creatinine Ratio as another name for the urea test. The source also says that creatinine and urea from the same blood test can be compared with each other.<sup>[1, 2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group bp-adv-sec is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bp-waarom-het-ertoe-doet\">Why this value matters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A problem with your kidneys often causes no symptoms at first. A urea test can reveal such a problem early.<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Creatinine alone does not tell the whole story. How much you make depends on your muscles, your diet, your age and how active you are. That is why it is often compared with other substances, such as urea, to learn more.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MedlinePlus lists a number of things that raise your chance of a kidney problem: high blood pressure, kidney problems in the family, smoking, obesity and being older than 50.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group bp-adv-sec bp-adv-sec--wash is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bp-wat-je-waarde-zegt\">What your urea\/creatinine ratio tells you<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What MedlinePlus says about urea<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table bp-bm-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Result<\/th><th>Can point to<\/th><th>Who it is for<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Urea higher than normal<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/td><td>Kidneys that are not working as well<\/td><td>Everyone<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Urea higher than normal<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/td><td>Dehydration, burns, certain medicines or food high in protein<\/td><td>Everyone<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Urea lower than normal<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/td><td>Too little protein in your diet, malnutrition or a liver condition<\/td><td>Everyone<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Normal value<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/td><td>Differs from person to person<\/td><td>Differs by sex and usually rises with age<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"bp-bm-caption wp-block-paragraph\">Source: MedlinePlus (U.S. National Library of Medicine) on urea in blood, one of the two parts of the ratio.

MedlinePlus gives no limit for the ratio itself. The source does say that urea and creatinine from the same blood test can be compared to find the cause of a kidney problem. A higher urea can point to kidneys that are not working as well, but also to dehydration, certain medicines or a lot of protein in your diet.

That is why your doctor may sometimes ask you not to eat meat for 24 hours before the test.<sup>[1, 2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fluid<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dehydration, meaning too little fluid in your body, can raise your urea.<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Medicines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some medicines can raise your urea. Medicines and supplements can also affect your creatinine result. Tell your doctor everything you take.
