Abnormal colors
Since the normal color of urine is pale yellow, variations can be an indication of health problems or be the result of certain foods that have been eaten.

Clear urine
If a person has been drinking an excess of water or diuretics such as coffee or beer, the urine may have little or no color. Typically, it is nothing to worry about if it happens occasionally.

Yellow urine
Excess sweating could result in the urine becoming a deeper yellow. Also, it is a sign that you have not been drinking enough liquids

Dark yellow urine
Liver problems or jaundice can cause the urine to become consistently a dark yellow color. Be sure you have been drinking enough fluids before jumping to conclusions.

Orange urine
People who eat too many carrots--like from a juicer--may see orange urine. Also, too much Vitamin C can turn the urine orange.

Brown urine
Brown urine can an indication of a serious condition. It could be caused by liver disease, hepatitis, melanoma cancer, or copper poisoning. Other symptoms from those ailments should also be considered as indicators. But note that if you had recently eaten fava beans or taken a laxative, your urine also could turn brown.

Greenish urine
A urinary tract infection, bile problems and certain drugs can cause the urine to turn greenish. A brighter green color is an indication of an excess of B vitamins.

Blue urine
Urine with a bluish tint can be caused by a psuedomonas bacterial infection. It can also be an indication of high levels of calcium.

Reddish urine
There are a number of things that can cause the urine to have a red tint.

Blood
A small amount of blood in the urine can give it a red tint. Sometimes droplets of blood are seen. A bladder infection, kidney stones or bladder stones can result in urine with red in it. Also, a slight injury to the bladder or kidney can result in bleeding into the urine. Some professional boxers have been known to pass blood in their urine after a fight.

If you see what looks like blood in your urine, it is a good idea to go to the doctor to check the condition.

Food
Eating beets can result in reddish-purple urine.

Acidic urine will turn red after eating blackberries. Alkaline urine will look reddish after eating rhubarb. Whether your urine is acidic or alkaline is usually determined by other foods you have eaten.

Candy or pills with a dye can temporarily turn the urine red.

Poison
Lead or mercury poisoning can turn the urine reddish. If you suspect you have ingested and have been handling those toxic metals, and your urine is red, you should see your physician.

What to do
If your urine has a strange color, and you have not been eating foods or taking pills that would cause the change in color, you should check yourself for other unusual symptoms and perhaps visit your doctor.

Also, if the urine has a bad odor, it may be an indication of disease.

In conclusion
The color of your urine may determine the state of your health. Your kidneys process liquids from what you have been eating and drinking, and the resulting urine consists of water and dissolved waste material. Certain colors of your urine can indicate problems, diseases or imbalances in your diet.

Different Colors Of Urine

Urine color is affected by many things within the body. For instance, a darker color can mean a person is dehydrated because there are more nutrients in the urine and less water. Conversely, very pale urine is full of water, so it's likely the person is well hydrated. Also, urine can indicate that you have too many or too few nutrients, as in vitamins and minerals in your system. I know when I take my daily supplements, which are chock-full of water-soluble vitamins, I pee florescent yellow. It's pretty unnerving. Also, colors in your food can affect it, like urine is often pink after you eat beets. However reddish urine might be bloody, and should be checked by a doctor promptly.
Hope that long-winded answer helped!

Healthy urine is a clear aqueous solution, varying in colour from dark yellow to colourless depending on the dilution. The main constituents of urine are water, salts and urea. Urochrome is the pigment that gives urine its color. Urea is one of the three nitrogenous waste products. The other two are creatinine and uric acid. Urine also contains various inorganic ions, including sodium and chloride. Lighter urine color usually indicates higher water consumption.

When your urine is yellow it usually means you might be dehydated. When its clear it means that you are not dehydrated. Sometimes different foods change the color of urine also.

Alcohol consumption drains the vitamins out of your system, leaving urine colorless, other drugs or foods can have similar results. The more yellow your urine is the more vitamins are normally in your system. Illnesses can affect urine color also.

Depending on how hydrated you are, your kidneys can produce a more dilute urine. This more dilute urine will have a clearer color vs. a more concentrated urine. If you drink a lot of water, your urine will be clearer in color.

Depends on how much water you have consumed. The more water, the lighter the color will be. It's healthier to have a light colored urine than dark - because it means you're drinking enough water.

The darker yellow your urine is, the more consetrated the urea content it has.
This is because the kidneys ration the water to save you from further dehydration.

This means that you are dehydrated when your urine is yellow.
