A member asked:
I have been taking mega men vitamins and noticed my urine has been bright yellow. is that the excess vitamins that the body doesn't use?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: Multivitamins can impart a bright yellow color to the urine, usually attributed to the b-complex vitamins. Other compounds in the formulation also contribute to urine color, and is harmless. Patients who use their urine color as a measure of hydration status should be careful not to drink fluids excessively because of this.
