It's perfectly normal. It's vitamin C that causes that f00!!!

However...if it becomes phosphorescent, cut back on the Vitamin C. :chuckles:

if your pee is yellow, you should be drinking more water. pee should be clear.

no, you're wrong. yellow pee is a beginning sign of dehydration. the darker it is the more dehydrated you are.

ALRITE... the reason why its becomes bright yellow is because the body doesn't need all the B2 vitamins...so it flushes out. Dark cloudy yellow means your dehydrated.
