: I don't think the orange hue has any importance as long as your urine isn't brownish or whites of your eyes aren't yellowish. I don't see a relationship with your sluggish bowels. Drink lots.of fluids, eat fiber from vegetables &amp; fruits and exercise regularly to promote more regular bowel movements. See your MD if you still have concerns.
