Abstract

The objective of our study was to show correlation of pH of urine with capability of drinking water per day. Measurement of acidity or alkalinity of urine is termed as urine pH. The normal pH of urine is 7.0. If higher the pH than 7 it means it is basic and if number are lower than 7 it means that pH is acidic. Doctors and health organization recommended people to drink 2.5 liter in a day. Without water human can only live for few days. Many tests can be performed to diagnose the pH value in urine such as microscopic exam, dipstick method and visual exam. A total of 100 subjects participated from Bahauddin Zakariya University in our current research. In our research we used dipstick method for the measurement of pH in urine. In dipstick method, dipstick strips were used on that ten different bands were present. It was concluded that pH in urine have significant relation with capacity of drinking water per day. Male who drink 1-4 and 5-8 glasses of water in day have 33.33% and 66.67% chance of alkaline pH and female who drink 1-4 glasses had 25% chance of acidic pH and 8.33% chance of basic pH.
