Your urine color might be a warning sign about your health

There might be some form of hypothesis about what your urine color might predict about your health and entire body.Urine which is a waste product from our bodies,is forced out through the kidneys and runs through the ureters to the urinary bladder where it is excreted from our bodies through the urethra in the course of urination.


According to experts,when your urine is transparent,that is,without color,then you are fully hydrated.Some urine color will indicate if you are healthy or not and this will determine if you should consult your doctor or not.

A neurologist and Oncologist at the Sutter Roseville Medical Center,Dr. David S. Yee,however said the color of one's urine determines the level of the person's hydration.

''Urine color is a practical and viable marker of hydration in most people.Although not perfect,there is supporting evidence in the medical literature.''

It is advisable that people drink a lot of water to replenish the lost water from our bodies,as we sweat we lose a lot of water and electrolytes.According to the CDC,employers are advised to keep urine color charts at work places to inform employees of the need to drink water frequently.

''In addition to providing plenty of water in convenient locations close to the work site,employers can provide urine color charts near toilet facilities.''
