I thought my urine would be clear since I drink so much water.

The yellow color comes from urea, which is a breakdown product from proteins. You will always have some - it will just be more or less diluted. So don't worry about it.
You DON'T NEED to be drinking "over 8 glasses of water a day" - that's a myth.

The yellow color comes from the red blood cells when they die and are broken down. As long as you are healthy and have a good amount of blood in your veins, the urine will always be at least a little yellow because some of our blood cells die every day. If it is deep yellow and if it causes concern, you might want to try keeping the blood healthy by having more iron in the diet, but usually this means your body is getting rid of lots of waste, and that's a good thing. Hope this helps.

Urine will always be a bit yellow but if it's too dark it can be a cause for concern. Dark urine can be a sign of live problems or diabetes as a few.

Your urine is yellow because you are not healthy. I don't know but i heard in a health magazine that if your urine is yellow it means you are not healthy but you just dont feel it.

It depends on what else, and how much of it accompanies your drinking 8 glasses of water.

the fresh juice out of the coconut will make ur urine pure clear
i dunno how big ur glass of water is, but try drinkin 2 liter of water a day for a week, it will definitely help. 2 liter is f***in hard to drink in one day, honestly. but try.
If you have pimples, this amount of water will f***in clear it up

Are you eating lots of veggies? Especially Asparagus? It's green and will keep you yellow.

Do you drink or smoke?
Do you have a kidney or liver problem?
Or your body may just need more water.
urine should be the color of "light lemon juice."
