Honestly, I've had the light green after taking a vitamin supplement that I did not need. You can get red by drinking a lot of beet juice (the juice in the jar of sliced beets), but if you haven't done that red is very bad.

You can get bright orange pee after taking certain UTI medication, too

[-] OtisRamflow@lemm.ee 12 points 7 months ago

Urogesic blue, same kind of thing, but it turns blue.

[-] flicker@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

My old vitamin gave me neon orange pee first thing in the morning. Like, iodine color.

I take something else now and it does not do that anymore.

When I was in high school there was a kid who died of spinal meningitis. The school district distributed preventive medicine to all students. It turned my pee super orange. And from what I heard it turned guys' pee red!

Just eating beets for me. Always scares the hell out of me for a second the next day when I forget that I had them in something.

[-] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 7 points 7 months ago

That's the lowest amount that I have heard of for the effect.

are beets a PH indicator? do you have really basic or acidic poops?

[-] klemptor@startrek.website 12 points 7 months ago

If my pee is lager-colored I know I'm not drinking enough (unless it's first thing in the morning). Pee should be mostly clear with only a slight yellow tinge!

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

I know, but I didn't have a fun illustration that reflects that fact 🤷

[-] klemptor@startrek.website 2 points 7 months ago

Ahhh my bad, I'm always taking things too literally lol

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

No worries, it's a valid point regardless 😁

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

don't feel bad, thats a good thing, innocent stuff like this can snowball into widely believed misinformation

[-] doubledgedsoul@lemm.ee 24 points 7 months ago

Shades of blue happen when you are taking the medicine Methylene Blue.

[-] Fermion@mander.xyz 7 points 7 months ago

I found out about that in college. Initially I thought it was some cleaning compound in the dorm toilets. I found out later that someone had put methylene blue in brownies they brought to a gathering as a prank.

It wasn't that great of a prank because it relies on people talking about the color of their urine well after the prank was done.

[-] dovahking@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Dark orange if you're on TB treatment course.

[-] XEAL@lemm.ee 15 points 7 months ago

Chart's missing white/colourless

2/10 would not pee again

[-] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 13 points 7 months ago

The 'What' side is just how much of that 2000 flushes stuff is in the bowl.

[-] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 11 points 7 months ago

Magenta means you’ve been eating beets.

No, bees are yellow.

[-] bruhduh@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

With blood diseases pee can be black, like bloody black

[-] Lath@kbin.social 7 points 7 months ago

Green is from Gatorade and Mountain Dew.
Blue and purple are from prune juice, a warrior's drink.

[-] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

This handy chart is from the Aussie government. Other colours are possible, but have specific causes that most likely require medical attention. There are other things that were already mentioned in other comments that could cause weird colours.

[-] EffortlessEffluvium@lemm.ee 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Purple makes you King George III…

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Is there a similar chart for poop?

[-] brokenlcd@feddit.it 7 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I think we can only get a shart for that one. (Yeah i know i have the humor of a 2 year old)

[-] psud@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

There's the Bristol stool scale charts

alcoholics be looking at the second orange one the wrong way

[-] tipicaldik@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

I had to take zinc supplements before oral surgery back in my late teens and they made it look like I was pissing Mountain Dew...

Holy shit this was funny

One of the greens just means you’re in New Orleans and have had too many hand grenades. Actually, several of those right colors just mean your near bourbon street
