How can one make urine more concentrated?
To make urine more concentrated, drink less water and consume foods high in salt and protein. This will reduce the amount of water in the body, leading to more concentrated urine.
What is the roleof ADH in thebody's waterbalance?
ADH causes the body (kidney) to conserve water and produce more concentrated urine

How adh causes changes in the kidney tuble?
ADH, or antidiuretic hormone, works in the kidney tubule by increasing its permeability to water. This allows the kidney to reabsorb more water from the urine, leading to concentrated urine production. As a result, ADH helps regulate the body's water balance by controlling how much water is excreted in the urine.
Why a person who has had a kidney stone should drink large amounts of water to prevent another kidney stone forming?
There are higher chances of getting small crystal precipitated out of concentrated urine. You drink that extra water and urine will have less solutes per unit volume. because you will get more quantity of the diluted urine. So chances of kidney stone formation will be less.
Does ADH favor the formation of dilute or concentrated urine?
ADH causes an increase in water reabsorption in the kidneys. Thus, by absorbing more water, the urine becomes MORE concentrated (more compounds in less water = more concentrated)
Can poor mental health cause kidney stone formation?
According to a study conducted by University of Maryland (link below), people who report having stress or stressful experiences in life were more likely to have kidney stones. Experts hypothesize that this may be due to vasopressin that is released when you experience stress. This hormone can make chemicals in urine more concentrated, which can cause kidney stones.
Is ADH a steroid or non steroid?
It is a steroid. It is an antidiuretic hormone increases the permeability of the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct of the kidney nephron resulting in less water in the urine. The urine becomes more concentrated as water is conserved.
How many filters in the kidney what is there function?
There are millions of filters in the kidney, called 'nephrons'. Their job is to filter what will become urine, and is a part of the body's water regulation system. If you are sweating lots from exercise, and your body needs water, your nephrons will reduce the amount of water leaving the body in your urine. When this happens, your urine should be more concentrated, and will be a yellow colour. When you have had lots of water, you urinate more to get rid of the water, as your kidney is regulation the water to keep it at a steady level.
When do you want to make a concentrated urine?
The body typically produces more concentrated urine when it is dehydrated or needing to conserve water. This usually occurs when there is a decrease in fluid intake or an increase in fluid loss, such as during exercise or in hot weather.
Why is the first urine of the day most concentrated?
The color of urine is determined on how concentrated the urine is. It's from all of the toxins being excreted. In the morning it's a fasting urine and you haven't drank fluids all night. So it's concentrated and dark yellow. During the day, you drink and dilute the urine so there more water in the urine, less concentrated and lighter in color
