Drinking a lot of water may affect urine protein.
When you drink a lot of water, your body's water content increases, causing your kidneys to filter more water. The kidneys filter excess water and waste from your blood and convert it into urine. Some people may experience reduced urine protein excretion after drinking a lot of water, which may be related to increased glomerular filtration caused by drinking more water. In addition, urine dilution is also one of the reasons for the reduction of urinary protein excretion after drinking a lot of water, so drinking a lot of water may affect urinary protein.
