About UroColor 10 - Urine Test Strips
PRE-SCREENING | URINALYSIS (100 test strips)
Urinalysis (urine testing strips) is a simple, at-home test that analyses at a small sample of your urine. It can alert you to anomalies that may warrant further investigation and more thorough testing by your doctor.
Testing throughout your program may assist in determining your hydration levels, the type of fuel your body is using and whether further tweaking of your menu is required.
UroColor 10 tests for the presence of the following markers in urine:
BLOOD
The presence of blood in your urine warrants further investigation by your doctor. It may be an indication of a UTI or may be related to your kidney or liver function.
BILIRUBIN
Bilirubin is a waste product from the breakdown of old red blood cells, which are normally removed by the liver. Its presence in urine could be a sign your liver is not functioning well.
UROBILINOGEN
If this marker is out of range, it may indicate issues with your liver function. Your doctor will need to do further testing to identify the cause.
KETONE
This is a measure of the ketone concentration in your urine, helping you to determine and moderate the type of fuel your body is burning.
PROTEIN
High protein in your urine may suggest your kidneys are not working as they should and warrants further testing by your doctor.
NITRATE
The presence of nitrate in your urine most commonly means there is a bacterial infection in your urinary tract.
GLUCOSE
A higher measure of glucose in urine could indicate a health problem, such as Diabetes. Your doctor would need to perform further testing to determine the cause.
pH
This marker analyses whether your urine is too acidic or alkaline. A pH above normal may be a sign of kidney stones or a urinary infection.
SPECIFIC GRAVITY
Never sure if you’re drinking enough water? This marker assesses your hydration level.
LEUKOCYTES
Urinary tract infections are commonly referred to as UTIs. High levels of this compound may indicate a possible UTI.
