This is what your pee says about you

In life, you occasionally stumble across important questions: Why are we here? Is there a god? And what on earth does it mean when my wee is that colour?

Luckily ASAP Science is here to answer one of the three with a new video explaining just that. Normally urine should be yellow, and if it's dark you may be dehydrated.

As for other colours? If your urine is brown it may be a side-effect of drugs or eating too much rhubarb, if your urine is purple you could have porphyria, a rare inherited disease and if your urine is red you may be passing blood.

You can watch the full video below:
