TMI- Strange Smell

[Guest guest]

We talk so much about poop, but now I've got a question about my pee

For the past few days it's been smelling really strong (like when you eat

asparagus)- it has a sweet yet acidic smell.

The only changes I've made in the past few weeks is that I've added a little bit

of nut butter and started taking a second multivitamin.

I figure it's either my body peeing out some vitamin/mineral from the multi or

something more serious...

Has anyone experienced the same thing?

Joanna,

I haven't had exactly this, the strange smell, but even long before SCD,

before even when my gut went nuts (and I thought I was healthier than I

was), periodically I would get cloudy urine. Maybe half a day or a

day. Eventually I asked the doctor about this and he said the body

just dumps things periodically that it doesn't need, and the cloudy would

be dumping excess minerals. I don't see why vitamins or whatever

wouldn't do the same thing. They always say we pee out excess vitamins

and who knows what they smell like!
