        It's a different smell, that's for sure. I think suppliments(vitamins) can make the urine smell different too.

          Hi there,
          Just for info - I find that my first wee in the morning smells very strong. The more water I drink, the better the smell. So, I can normally tell whether I've been drinking enough water for the day.

            Have most of the posters here experienced things such as this and ketosis breath? I must say I never did personally ...
