Normal urine creatinine levels are: Men: 107 to 139 mL/min; 1.8 to 2.3 mL/sec Women: 87 to 107 mL/min; 1.5 to 1.8 mL/sec Anyone above the age of 40: levels should drop by 6.5 mL/min for every additional 10 years of age Consuming too much protein can cause a temporary spike in creatinine levels, even in a person who is otherwise healthy. In someone who already has heightened creatinine levels, it can increase levels further. Cooked red meat seems to be particularly troublesome. Red meat is the muscle tissue of the animal, which naturally contains creatine. Cooking this meat causes the creatine to break down into creatinine, so when a person eats the meat, their creatinine levels will rise While too much fluid intake can be a problem for people with kidney disease, dehydration and lack of fluids can raise creatinine levels in the body. It is best for a person to work directly with their healthcare practitioner to determine the amount of liquid they should drink.Muscle activity produces creatinine; the more the muscles work, the more creatinine is in the blood.
