How To Lower High Ammonia Levels in The Blood

Reduce the intake of red meat

Red meat is a source of dietary ammonia, and you want to stay away from this type of meat if you already have an elevated level. Instead, eat chicken and fish as an alternative source of protein. Consider reducing protein intake if your ammonia levels are very high. A vegetarian diet with beans, lentils, and green peas may also help your body dispose of the ammonia accumulated in your body.
