Urine that smells like “soy sauce”?
-
Just wanted to see if anyone else has had this experience? My urine sometimes smells like a sweet soy sauce, the colour was yellow but not like a deep yellow. I’d say hydration wise I don’t have any other issues that could indicate dehydration.
Does anyone else have this issue? Is there perhaps something about a high consumption of sugar that creates this smell? -
@TopicalsOnBalls sugar won’t smell. you might have maple syrup urine disease. how long has this been going on? MSUD is extremely serious

@TopicalsOnBalls sometimes can happen through muscle breakdown or high ketones (caloric deficit, low protein or low carb). i notice it more when on lower calories. or if msud it might be a need for some thiamine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3903643/

@TopicalsOnBalls I had tge same issue. Its the supplements. Especially k2. Cut down supplements for a few days and see. If not then look somewhere else.
