A member asked:
The doctor said the protein in urine was 15 and not a lot, how much protein in urine is normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Up to 150 mg per day: Normal people can excrete up to 150 mg per day. This will increase with exercise and upright posture, but 15 mg per day is small and no reason to worry.
