The density of urine decreases when a diabetic secretes too much sugar.
When there is excess sugar in the blood, the kidneys release extra water.
The result is a more dilute and therefore less dense urine.
The urine from a non-diabetic person usually has a density of 1.010 g/mL to 1.025 g/mL.
The urine from a diabetic person often has a density less than 1.008 g/mL.
