diet high creatinine levels
I have foamy urine could it be from high protein diet and bodybuilding?

basically i have a higih protein diet, over last year or so with blood tests i have seen a rise in creatinine levels and urea levels well above normal levels and i am wondering wether this is due to my high activity through bodybuilding and muscle break down and also due to high protein diet, the doctors have told me it could be just normal for me due to being bigger more creatinine levels are seen however i am going to see a kidney specialist but the appointment is in a couple of weeks and was wondering wether foamy urine would be normal for someone with the diet i have thanks very much

Foamy urine is caused by bilirubin- in excess. It is also indicative of protein leaking from the kidneys, which is not good. You may be getting too much protein-which will cause damage. You need to go to the doctor, and get a 24- hour urine test to test for the amount of protein that is leaking out. It really simple- you just have to pee in a jug for 24 hours and bring it back. That’s it. Good luck.
