Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I consume 3 capsules of Zone Omega 3 1000mg + 1 capsule of Crystal Tomato (supplement for skin radiance) with 250 ml of water every morning before breakfast. About an hour later, I will take my breakfast together with another cup (250 ml) of strong Indian /Ceylon tea. After consuming 2 cups (about 500 - 600 ml) of water + tea, I notice that my urine is dark or bright yellow in colour when I visit the toilet some 3 - 4 hours later from the 1st visit in the early morning. Is this colour caused by the supplements I consume every morning before breakfast? I tend to drink 1 cup of Indian tea every morning, thereafter, my intake of fluid or liquid for the rest of the day is just plain water + 1 cup of fresh juice if available. The colour of my urine ranges from colourless, clear to light yellow which appears normal except for the above. Please advise.
It is not tea but your medication that is colouring your urine. Many medications do this. A simple test would be to not have your medication for one day, everything else remaining the same. if the urine is clear well its the medication thats colouring the urine.
