The color of your urine can give you quite a bit of information, as shown above. Color is not the only thing you can learn from a Urine Test Strip. It can also let you let you know if it contains amounts of protein, bilirubin, white blood cells, Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Urobillinogin, nitrite, uric acid, ketones, albumin, as well as, the pH of your urine. These markers may offer insight to varying issues that could possibly be of concern.
A Urine Test Strip* can give you a few quick insights. Also check to see if there is visible debris in your urine or if it is cloudy.
*This is not a diagnostic test, and is not a substitute for a medical urinalysis.
