Mulit-Vitamins

I've been taking Multi-Vitamins for the first time and noticed my urine is LIME green or almost a GLOWING green... lol... Anyone know why this is or if this is normal when taking Multi-vitamins?

Urine can turn color after taking vitamins because the body has absorbed "possibly" excess B vitamins.


Concerning vitamins: the body absorbs what it can take in, and the excess is passed out in the urine. There is nothing wrong; your body is simply getting rid of extra vitamins it doesnt need. But usually the color is bright yellow (or a shade of it), and not green in color. It is possible (as I dont know your brand of vitamin you are taking, that it may have some type of color additive or other filler causing the discolored urine)

Green urine can also be caused by a number of "other" factors such as:

Certain foods
Asparagus - may turn urine green color with odor.
Certain medications
Artificial food coloring
Artificial coloring in medications

It can also mean a medical condition as well.

With this said, it also could mean you are deydrated, and not drinking enough water. Or a combination of your vitamins, foods, medications, or an unknown condition.

What type of vitamins do you take, and how much water do you drink?

Any medications? What is your diet history like?

Wish you the ultimate best in everything you attempt to achieve, and then more,

Chillen

All are correct....It's the B. But not do to excess amounts.
Always drink plenty of water.

You did not mention what type of multi you are taking. I assume it is like a One A Day vitamin or something of the sort. These vitamins have a very low absorbtion rate and you are basically peeing it out before it can be assimilated. A new product has just come out and it is a vitamin supplement based on your DNA. Each person gets a custom engineered supplement based on his or her own DNA. Since I cant post my link here email me at cwdoty@yahoo.com and I can show you how to get them FREE. CRAIG

I've actually done that, too ... it was such a bright yellow from the Vit B, I honestly thought it would glow in the dark. It didn't. I was actually somewhat disappointed ...

Odds are you are taking a garbage multi.

Try switching to 1 A Day for Men. No lime green, 100% (and no more) of what you need, and probably 10% of the cost.

There's been a lot of talk on your bodily "functions," lately, and frankly, I'm starting to get a little scared. (jk) Just watch where you aim your excreted "ROCK ONs." Preferrably in Focus's general direction.
