Sometimes when we eat the red heart's pitaya, we will find that the urine will turn red, just like the blood in urine, which is quite scary. So what's the matter with red urine of dragon fruit? Does it look scary? Follow Xiaobian to find out what's going on?
1. Caused by natural pigment
There are red natural pigments in the red meat pitaya fruit. When you eat it, your body can't digest and absorb these pigments, and it will be discharged with excretion and discharge, so your urine will turn red, which looks like urine blood.
2. Depends on metabolism
Not all people will turn red when they eat red meat. It depends on everyone's physical fitness. Some people's bodies are better at the absorption and catabolism of pigment, so they won't make red urine; for the relatively weak people, the waste and excrement may change color.
3. Not necessarily pigment
But after eating red meat and pitaya, the urine turns red, which can not be simply attributed to the pigment. You should stop eating pitaya immediately. After a period of time, see if your urine has returned to normal. If it is restored, it indicates that it is the cause of natural pigment; if not, it indicates that there may be other problems in your body.
4. Pay attention to whether to urinate blood
If after eating the red meat dragon fruit, it has not been eaten any more, but the blood is still red, it may be really urine blood. There are many reasons for urinating blood, such as urinary system diseases, kidney damage, etc. it is recommended to go to the hospital for routine urine examination.
