Urine Color Chart

A urine color chart is a tool to help you assess your hydration and health by comparing the color of your urine to a reference guide. Urine color varies from pale yellow to dark amber, indicating different hydration levels and possible health conditions. Light yellow usually means good hydration, while darker shades may suggest dehydration or need for more fluids. However, factors such as foods, medications, and health issues can also affect urine color. It’s a useful, simple way to monitor hydration status, but should not replace professional medical advice if there are concerns.
