A member asked:

I recently started to take a whey protein supplement and started to experience burning during urination. urine is clear. is this due to excessive protein? i have no other symptoms. or previous kidney problems. ive been consuming about 2gm/kg

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Urinary burning: I would not attribute urinary burning to eating the protein supplement unless you're not drinking anywhere enough fluids. 50 gms per day of protein powder should suffice. Clear appearing urine does not rule out urinary tract infection, prostatitis or urethritis which can be a sexually transmitted disease. Get evaluated and tested by your MD, a urologist or health clinic if urinary burning persists
