Uremic toxins are substances that build up in the body due to decreased GFR. Of particular interest are uremic toxics that are produced in the colon due to protein fermentation (e.g. indoxyl sulfate). The formation of uremic toxins, their many possible deleterious effects, as well as possible treatment strategies will be discussed.

2) Appreciate the possible negative consequences of uremic toxins
3) Be aware of potential therapeutic options to address uremic toxin buildup
