This may mean you have Diabetes. This could also be a sign of mutations in the SGLT2 Transporters in the Kidney, which means that you excrete glucose in your urine, losing calories which could be used elsewhere in the body in the process

Protein does occur naturally in the urine of humans. This is normally no more than 150mg per day. I am assuming you mean >150mg of protein per day. If someone has more than 150mg of protein in their urine per day it can mean several things: it can be a result of an infection, diabetes, kidney disease, medication side effect, and many, many more.


Can diabetes show up in a routine physical urine analysis?

Yes. Because glucose is not usually found in urine. But greater than normal levels of glucose don't necessarily mean the diabetes. It may be a sign of Glucose release from the kidneys into the urine (renal glycosuria) or pregnancy. If so, further testing is needed.More information is on Freetxno1.com.
