Re: Urine and Fasting Question

[Guest guest]

Sidenote on why is my urine dark yellow on 2nd day of fast: it can't be the Dong Quai, as I only put one dropperful in my water early this morning...

Peace,

Maybe this will help

Orange urine may be due to concentrated urine, restricted fluid intake, excess sweating, fever and small quantities of bile pigment.

Thanks Suzi,

Actually, I think this may be correct. I guzzled three tall glasses of water and then peed twice and it was almost clear.

I guess I just needed more water. Still, when I'm not fasting my urine is never that color except right after I take a B-vitamin, even on low water intake. And therein lies another clue: I think now that I think about it, the b-vitamins are not stored in the body or in the fat, but expelled right after you take the vitamin -- the excess amounts that are not used... isn't that right?

Blessings,
