Your urine colour can reveal a lot about your hydration, kidney function, and overall health.
Most people never pay attention to it, but it can give you early clues about what your body needs.
Here are some simple things your urine colour may indicate:
➡️ Very pale / clear – you may be over hydrating�
➡️ Light yellow – this is usually a good hydration level�
➡️ Foamy urine – sometimes linked to dehydration, fast urine stream, or possible protein in urine�
➡️ Dark yellow – often a sign you need more fluids�
➡️ Orange – can be linked to dehydration, bile flow issues, or certain medications�
➡️ Pink or red – may occur after foods like beetroot, but sometimes may indicate urinary irritation or blood
Your goal most of the time should be light yellow urine.
