Good question. I am interested in seeing what others have to say on this. But I would guess the protein molecules are much larger than the water molecules so they cannot pass through the bowmans capsule in a healthy kidney.

You need to think about composition here. What is the composition of water? 2 molecules of Hydrogen 1 Oxygen gases vs protein or solids
