You've lost me there :think:
How can you smell something you haven't produced?
"He who smelt it dealt it" is not a scientific law :rotfl:How to find a dentist.
1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.0 -
Have seen somewhere on a doctor website all the different colours you can get by eating different items. Bit like colours of the rainbow.
To be honest the first time I ever 'overdosed' on beetroot, fresh home boiled beet, I had red pee. Was a bit worried until I was told by my mum that whats happens if you over indulged
And you said you roasted it. So there could be a higher concentration of the red colour because you have not 'washed out in boiling' the pigment.
I would be more worried if you were still passing red pee after 2-3 days. Then that would to me, be a visit to a doctor for a check up.The more I live, the more I learn.
The more I learn, the more I grow.
The more I grow, the more I see.
The more I see, the more I know.
The more I know, the more I see,
How little I know.!!

There is something satisfying about a "yay I took my vitamins today" fluorescent wee:beer:0 -
This is what puts me off eating beetroot! It's about the only vegetable (bar brussels sprouts) that never gets eaten in my house.
Asparagus can make your pee smell weird, but I don't think it's harmful.
i had sugar puffs in the morn one time and when i had a wee later i could smell it.. hahahahahah“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”

Vitamin C can give you orangey wee.
It can also sometimes give a false positive for sugar in a urine test, so if you are taking .Vit.C and need a urine test, make sure you tell the nurse.
Coffee makes your wee smell of coffee.
And yes, beetroot gives you red wee and red poo. Have had both, and eaten roasted beetroots.(I just lurve spiders!)
