Client had protein show in urine. Company wants 2 more (separate) urine samples. Any suggestions on what client could do to make the future samples as clean as possible? Figured I'd ask. Not sure what caused the protein.
Any suggestions appreciated.
This has happened to me a couple of times in the past, from what occurred in my scenario I had an applicant who was working 24-48 hours prior to his exam which caused protein in his urine.
Another occasion the protein findings was simply an indication of pre diabetes. Sometimes you simply can't control the situation.

Protein in the urine is a marker for several different issues. The best way too clear it to a baseline level will be to eat a high starch/low protein diet for 10 to 14 days prior to the next test. Think white rice and citrus fruit, and cook with as little salt/sodium as possible. You can google Dr. Walter Kempner and the rice diet. I am not a doctor, and I am certainly not a vegan or vegetarian. At any rate, your client should definitely consult with his/her personal physician for proper diagnosis and monitoring. Improperly functioning kidneys is serious business.
High blood pressure can also cause protein in urine so most likely insurance company will check APS/prescription drug history. Healthy kidneys don't allow protein to pass through so don't think it is just a fluke. It is possible the examiner messed up the test so a 2nd test is a good idea. If high blood pressure and diabetes get ruled out and there is still protein in urine, he should go to a specialist and they will run various tests to isolate the cause of kidney disease.
