What are the causes of creatinine levels to be high in the urine?

Protein intake or: Muscle breakdown. Not serious in itself especially if subject is a "metabolic" & should probably cut back on meat consumption. Unlike high level of creatinine in blood which signifies kidney impairment.

No cause for concern: Usually it means you are well-muscled or just big.
