Yep, a sign of healthy kidneys. In case you're interested: protein in the urine (proteinuria) may be a sign of kidney damage. Since serum proteins are readily reabsorbed from urine, the presence of excess protein indicates either an insufficiency of absorption or impaired filtration. Diabetics usually suffer from damaged nephrons and develop proteinuria.
