Water Water Water!!!! Dark urine is often a sign of dehydration. Yes, it could be from certain medications or you might be spotting a little. Either way, more fluids can't hurt.

Ur urine should may be dark in the AM but it needs to be clear or close to it by the afternoon. If its not then ur probably not getting enough Fluid. Thats what my Dr told me...

try not to get behind on the fluids...i had the flu 2 weeks after my surgery and became dehydrated. I ended up going back to the hospital just to get an IV. The Dr. told me that w/the sleeve, we cannot afford to get behind because we cannot ingest the quantity of liquids we need to get back on track. If I get a little behind, I mix G2 gatorade with Water and put down a glass or two so at least my body will retain some fluids. Just keep sippin!

Vitamins can change the color too. The time I go after taking my B12 is always darker.

My dark urine was dehydration and it led me to a UTI. Be careful!

Urine should be clear or light yellow if you are fully hydrated. It gets darker as you dehyrate, which will give you nausea, headaches and maybe even the poops. Vitamins usually turn mine this funky bright yellow with a tinge of green, like flourescenty? It's weird. But for others its more of a darker yellow. I would say try to drink more Water.< /p>

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
