A member asked:

Why does my urine smell like its poisinous ? its orange as well ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Urine color and odor: Urine is colored by bilirubin metabolism - the color is typically yellow; orange urine suggests another substance from your diet or from vitamin supplements; odor suggests high ammonia - are you eating large amounts of meat? this can make urine smell;
