    Another Dumb Question about hydration and urine

    I drink a TON of water throughout the day. I haven't had a soda in about four years.

    When I pee my urine looks like it comes out kind of clear but when it goes into the urinal it turns the water kind of yellow. If I'm peeing alot but the water still turns yellowish does it mean that I am dehydrated or that I am hydrated but the color pee is still yellowish (I think that makes sense)?
    The yellow pee could also be from my medication/suplements that I am on.

    Just wondering if I need even more water than I already drink. I don't think my bladder is the biggest either lol.

    Clear = Too much water, kidneys are clearing out the excess

    A little yellow= Just right, body is maintaining optimal water.

    Dark yellow= Too little water, on the verge of dehydration, drink!

    It's different for everyone. Every body is not the same weight, height, etc. Someone might require 160oz of water for optimum efficiency while someone else only requires 80oz. It all depends on weight and height. Plus, your a manlet like I am XD, you won't require as much water as a 6"6 260 pound monster.

    Yeah water and fat soluble.

    Vitamin C can also change the colour- same with other dyes that are in certain foods (beets for instance).
