What the Color of Your Urine Really Says About Your Health (It's More Interesting Than You Think)

Clear as water: is too much too much?
If your urine is as clear as a glass of water, you're probably drinking... a little too much. Yes, it's good to stay hydrated, but flooding your body with water isn't necessarily helpful.

Note: If you're going to the bathroom every 30 minutes and never feel thirsty, it might be time to slow down a bit.

Fluorescent Yellow: Vitamins at Work

Don't panic if your urine turns light yellow after you swallow a vitamin cocktail. This is especially true for vitamin B supplements.

Note: This is not dangerous at all. It's just your body excreting what it doesn't need. Smart, right?

Dark yellow to amber: A slight sign of dehydration. A
deeper shade of yellow or amber? Your body is silently telling you it needs a small glass of water.

The right thing to do is to drink a little, wait a few hours and check again. If the color becomes lighter, everything is fine.
