Whether a person is healthy or not can be seen from urine.
Urinating is a normal metabolic activity of the body. In daily life, we can know what our health is like by urinating. If the urine is abnormal, it will warn us that there is something wrong with our body.
Urine has many colors and smells. The normal urine color should be like this:
1. Color of normal urine
The urine discharged by normal people is generally light yellow, indicating that your body is full of water. If it's not this color, be alert to physical problems. However, urine is not always like this, and it will change with the amount of water you drink or the change of your daily diet structure, but as long as it is not always like this, don't worry too much.
When the body is short of water, the water in the bladder will decrease and the color of urine will deepen. The urine discharged by healthy people is light yellow, indicating that the body is full of water. However, the color of urine is not immutable. With the influence of daily diet or water consumption and physical condition, the color of urine will change to some extent. When the body is short of water, the color will deepen. Once the water in the bladder is reduced, the color of natural urine will also deepen.
The urine color is abnormal, as follows, so be alert after it appears.
① Deep yellow
This is a sign of lack of water in the body. When the water in the body decreases, the proportion of pigment in the body will increase, and the discharged urine will be dark yellow. At this time, remind you to replenish water and drink more water.
② orange
Do not eat some dark foods such as carrots. If the urine is orange for a long time, be alert to the risk of urinary tract infection, or there is a problem with the liver system, which leads to bilirubin metabolism disorder and orange urine.
③ color of soy sauce
Be careful with liver diseases, kidney diseases and other related diseases, because people with acute hepatitis or nephritis will react from hemoglobin, thus showing this color, especially after getting up.
(4) purple:
Beware of serious urinary system infection. There was a female patient who had purple urine because urine bacteria were found in her urine. This phenomenon often occurs because the patient's catheter has a problem, which leads to urinary tract infection. Under the action of bacteria, this color appears.
2. The taste of normal urine
Normal urine has no irritating smell. If it emits a special smell, it may be abnormal and you need to be vigilant.
If you smell urine and have the following strange smell, you should pay attention to it. However, it does not rule out that eating some food will produce odor. For example, eating too much asparagus will affect the taste of urine, and the smell of rotten cabbage will appear when defecating. Don't worry about this situation.
Be alert to the health risks of urine with the following smells.
① Smell: After eating garlic, pepper and onion, urine may become smelly;
2 sweetness: this smell will appear in patients with diabetes and kidney disease;
③ Ammonia smell: Be alert to cystitis and urinary system infection.
4 stench: generally for patients with pyelonephritis or cystitis;
5 rotten fruit flavor: this may be ketoacidosis.
Of course, I would like to remind you that you can't distinguish health status only by the taste and color of urine. This is just a way to identify health status. Everyone may have a different smell. If you feel abnormal urine and are not at ease, you can go to the hospital for relevant examination in time. Discharge is an abnormality caused by physical diseases. This is a more reliable and faster method.
