A member asked:

Why does my urine smell really bad when i drink sodas, or anything in high fructose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Lonna Larsh answered

Not sure why: This would happen, but high fructose drinks are terrible for you. Maybe this is your body's way of telling you not to drink them.

Dr Pappas and another doctor agreed
