​​Puffy eyes​

Your kidneys may be leaking a lot of protein into the urine instead of storing it, which can cause puffiness around your eyes.

​​Disturbed sleep​

Toxins do not exit the body through the urine when the kidneys are not filtering the blood adequately. This may make it challenging to fall asleep.

Excessive bubbles in the urine, particularly those that don't subside even after multiple flushes are a sign that there is protein present in urine.
