Lime coloured urine??
 
Does anyone know what having lime-cordial coloured wee usually means? It's not green or dark, more like the colour of lime squash. I'm not on any medication or drugs but I do workout every other day and take the usual protein shakes. I'm well-hydrated which means it should be clear but this odd colour has appeared. I don't feel ill or anything and have only just noticed it.

Unusual color in the urine usually means some type of medication was ingested. Urised, for example, is a medication that contains Methylene Blue dye. This causes the urine to become greenish in color. Of course, this may or may not be the cause in your particular case.
It could be food colouring in your food.
You may want to have a urinalysis done and be checked out by your physician for other possible causes.

Alien abductee? or too many blue ice pops!
Green urine is normally caused by medication, but if you havn't had any, then I don't know.
Green unrine call also be caused by tetralin, phenol, hydroquinone exposure.

This happens to me, if I eat asparagus, it doesnt take much & the effect (including a cabbage odour) is noticeable really quickly (like 10 minutes). :erm:

- wasn't until I read up on it that I found it only happens in about 50% of the population.

I've been on creatine for about a month now but this has only just happened in the last day or so.

Someone mentioned it could be due to raised levels of vitamin B - and I am taking a vitamin B suppliment too...perhaps that's it :shrug:
