I believe that most men, every time they urinate, will consciously or unconsciously take a look at their urine. Normal urine is clear, slightly yellow, or colorless. But if one day, your urine becomes too yellow, are you a bit surprised? Maybe an occasional occurrence wouldn’t bother you much, but if your urine is frequently too yellow, you will surely worry about your health.
Indeed, through observing urine, we can also assess the body’s health condition. So, what does it mean when a man’s “urine turns yellow”? Let me explain it to you in detail below.
1. Health Factors
If urine appears too yellow, a significant factor is health-related. For instance, patients with hepatitis, due to impaired liver function, may develop jaundice, resulting in excessively yellow urine. Furthermore, hepatitis patients may also experience symptoms like nausea, vomiting, aversion to oil, fatigue, weakness, and loss of appetite.
In addition, urinary tract infections, cystitis can also lead to excessively yellow urine.
2. Dietary Factors
Some foods with natural pigments can cause the urine to become excessively yellow, such as commonly consumed foods like carrots, papaya, chili peppers, French fries, potato chips, and others.
3. Excessive Stress Factors
Some individuals, due to high work-related stress, frequent overtime work, inadequate rest for extended periods, leading to hormonal imbalance, can experience excessively yellow urine.
4. Medication Factors
Some medications can also cause urine to appear yellow, for example, certain cold medications, anti-inflammatory drugs, due to the components in the medication which influence urine coloration.
5. Poor Diet
An improper diet can also be a trigger for excessively yellow urine. For example, a preference for consuming spicy, stimulating foods, heavy-flavored foods, high-calorie foods, which tend to increase body heat, subsequently leading to urine appearing yellow.
Above are the 5 “factors” that can cause excessively yellow urine in men. It is hoped that individuals can identify these factors early and take targeted measures to prevent potential harm to the body. So, how can you prevent and improve the issue of excessively yellow urine?
1. If diagnosed with liver or urinary tract diseases, seek timely treatment under medical guidance, pay attention to liver protection by drinking natural liver-supporting berry tea, maintain personal hygiene to prevent bacterial infection in the urinary tract. Once the illness is eradicated, the yellow urine phenomenon naturally disappears.
2. If dietary-related, regardless of urine coloration, try to consume fewer spicy foods and heavy-flavored dishes. Avoid smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, limit tea intake, focus on a light diet, drink plenty of water.
3. Maintain a regular routine, minimize staying up late, rest more, engage in regular exercise, and relax appropriately.
4. Avoid overusing medications, especially antibiotics, refrain from prolonged usage. If excessive yellow urine is determined to be medication-induced, consider discontinuing usage to restore normal urine color.
