If my urine has a strong odour, do I need to drink more water?

Or is it just because I'm eating more greens as of late? Added some dandilions to my daily diet. Or am I detoxifying?

It's what you are eating. I think the bitter greens and crucifers make for some stinky urine. Asparagus makes the urine really stinky.

But I haven't noticed anything from lettuces, you can eat as much of thsoe as you like, they are so mild, and no stink.

Thanks for the reply! :0

Besides the dandilions, I have also added some Italian parsley each day.

dandelion does me fine

you could probably find alot of opinions on why that happens, doesn't seem like much of anything to be bothered by. I think the rule is if it isn't clear and regular (once per hour or so) then you want to do some drinkin' in the morning and/or evenings and maybe some with exercise.

curiosity about such things is awesome, but don't let it run your life or question the eating habits you enjoy.

Parsley should make it smell better, not worse. I suspect the dandelion.

At this time I seem to be attracted to dandelion because it looks so good and inviting. I'll enjoy it for now. Will see after I stop eating it if the odour of the urine changes. Thanks for your input! smiling smiley

Thanks, will drink a bit more water, just in case. A bit more water can't harm.
