So yep I think I was fighting something. ANd mine is just clear bubbles - and they pop immediately upon hitting the water - or start too anyway. I am beginning to think they are totally normal! I am wondering if my candida isn't trying to flare up. I did the spit on the glass test and although mine doesn't sink linke it use too. It does kinda stat to sag and hand there. My joints have been hurting some and minor itching here and there - both which totally cleared up when I did the yeast cleanse several months ago. Thanks Rachel,

You know I never paid attention to when. I know they are much less when I am flushing with water. Matter of fact my kids and husband have about the same amount. I do have enzymes but I just started taking them regularly. I know for a fact that I have trouble with digestion. I am wondering if I am fighting an infection. I had a cold sore about two weeks ago, about a week ago my voice started going and is now horse. And while I don't have a terrible burning or anything I am "aware" of urinary area - if that makes sense. Like an underlying thing. These look just like plain little bubbles. I guess they look more white some times LOL. I had some ketone strips and did that - was <!--more--> spilling a small amount but I am also burning fat, I know from the lemon flush & low carb thing over the past weekend. I was spilling none last week - and I have lost about 4-5 pounds this past week. I had a nurse tell me also ketones were not a good determinator for anythign serious if everything else was order - so many thigns can skew it. SO I am thinking infection. I hope the candida isn't coming back!! Thanks Rachel! You know I never paid attention to when. I know they

I am always amazed when I hear of naturopaths outside Canada who can do medical lab tests. Wish we had that here.... I have had bubbles and protein in my urine decades and no one seems to know why. And in fact, my kidneys are regaining function in spite of that! What I have found out (and I may be wrong here) is white bubbles generally do mean protein in the urine - but it does not necessarily mean your protein or that you have kidney problems. It just means protein is coming out. <!--more--> A urinary tract infection or candida in the urinary tract can cause bubbles in the urine as the protein from the bacterium is excreted. Also, undigested dietary protein will also cause bubbles. Then you need to find out why you are not properly digesting protein. You said there were hints of an infection at the time of the first test, so perhaps your body is still fighting with that. Do you notice the bubbles after any particular foods or a protein meal? Take any digestive enzymes? Rachel Hi Belinda,

A urinary tract infection or candida in the urinary tract can cause
bubbles in the urine as the protein from the bacterium is excreted.
Also, undigested dietary protein will also cause bubbles. Then you
need to find out why you are not properly digesting protein.

You said there were hints of an infection at the time of the first
test, so perhaps your body is still fighting with that. Do you
notice the bubbles after any particular foods or a protein meal?
Take any digestive enzymes?
