You are advised not to eat meat for 12 hours before a urine test to avoid interference with certain test results, particularly for metabolites that can be affected by the consumption of red meat. Meat can influence levels of substances like creatinine and urobilinogen, which may lead to inaccurate readings or misinterpretation of kidney function and overall health. This precaution helps ensure that the test results reflect your baseline health status without dietary influences.

I'm not sure what you're asking, but I think I get the picture. A blood test is not faster than a urine test, but it can show a positive result before a urine test. Most urine tests will be positive on or before the day of your expected period. Blood tests can show positive about 3 days after fertilization occurs. However, a urine test takes 3 minutes to do and a blood test will take hours, even maybe a day or two to get back.
Urine can typically be stored for up to 24 hours at room temperature before it becomes unsuitable for testing or analysis. After this time, changes in the composition of the urine may affect the accuracy of test results. It is recommended to refrigerate urine if it cannot be tested within 24 hours.
