What can it tell you about your health?
I hope this isn't a stupid question, but I'm curious...
I heard a while back that you can tell if you're dehydrated and some other things from your pee. Like, the color or smell or something. Is that true? And if it is, what else can you tell?

Yes thats true. Your pee will be really dark or have a strong amonia odor if you dont drink enough water. It doesnt mean your dehydrated though. The best way to tell if you are is to pinch your skin. If the skinn falls back to normal then your fine. If the skin stays in a pinch formation, then your dehydrated.

The darker your pee is the more dehydrated you are, so drink more fluids if this is the case. it should be almost clear like water, and should not smell very much at all.

yellow pee = dehydration. Clear pee = full hydration

if you are dehydrated you pee is more yellow. Drink lots of water otherwise it will cause you lots of health problems.

if your pee is bright yellow that means you had too much vitamin c for the day. but don't worry, whatever your body doesnt use it leaves your body because its water soluble.
