I drink a decent amt of water.. about 4-6 tall glasses a day, and I also work out 4-5 times a week... and I vape almost all day. (I go through about 3 battery loads a day (swapping out @ ~3.7 volts))...and... MY URINE IS SO YELLOW...more on the orange side... the only time my urine is clear is when im drinking beer on weekends.... Is it supposed to be like this?? I cant seem to drink enough water...even the days I dont work out, Im wizzing orange.


Anyone else have this problem? Its orange urine! Im starting to think im having other health problems because I dont see how vaping alone can cause this... maybe a combination of working out (sucks up alot of water) and vaping..Ive had this problem for about 3-4 months..

You need to be drinking A LOT more water! Dark urine is most commonly a symptom of dehydration. If you are vaping heavily and working out several times a week, 4-6 glasses of water a day are almost certainly not enough.

That said, if you think there may be another problem, please see a doctor. This forum is a wonderful place, but your doctor is where you should be getting your medical advice. :)

NB: I am not a medical professional

Darker and stronger smelling urine is typically a sign of dehydration.
That doesn't sound like enough water to me, especially if you are working out that much.

Try to avoid coffee, soda, alcohol, etc as they make things worse.

Also at least double your water intake.

If in doubt or anything changes for the worse, please see a Doctor pronto.

No way it is the Vape.
This happens to me during summer months. Working 12hr shifts in high heat at a non-stop pace lifting/stacking heavy product.
I've dropped 5+ pounds in a day in those conditions and yes, the urine turns bright yellow - next stop, collapse.

Size also matters - 8 glasses a day is not a magic number.
Someone 6'6" and 280lbs will likely need more water than my 5'6" 120lb body could handle.

It's the water you need. PG is a humectant. When you vape, the vapor absorbs moisture from your mouth and your sinuses and your lungs if you inhale. Do that hundreds of times a day and you are blowing clouds that are highly composed of water from YOU!


If you work at a job that makes you sweat, it's the vaping that's taking you over the edge.

True story, Even before I vaped I was working in my backyard all day excavating a Koi pond. My clothes were soaking wet when I went in to take a shower before going to a doctor's appointment. When I got there they handed me a cup and said fill it. I came out of the restroom with a cup full of liquid that looked like dark beer or strong iced tea!

Add vaping all day to that and there you have it ...

Are you taking supplements? I work in middle east alot in the oilfield and I have pi$$ed orange juice. 6-8 glasses is not enough. Start drinking water the minute you wake up and drink a glass everytime you pee. If you are only ...... 2 twice a day your not getting enough water.

Increase your water and if you dont see any improvement it would be best to see a doctor
