Items Tested
▶ Creatinine is a normal waste product that the body produces every day during muscle movements and when digesting meat. Healthy kidneys remove creatinine from the blood, and it leaves the body in urine.
▶ Protein: High levels of protein in a urine sample can indicate kidney disease.
▶ Specific Gravity (S.G.): Higher specific gravity could be signs of a UTI, diabetes or even dehydration. Other issues could be a kidney infection, kidney failure or heart failure.
Science

The Kidney Health test provides easy-to-understand dip-and-read test strips that check for Creatinine, Protein and Specific Gravity in your urine specimens. This helps you (with the help of your doctor) in the diagnosis of kidney diseases and problems. The test provides results through a visual comparison by you with the enclosed colour chart.
