Beeturia is the passing of red or pink urine after eating beetroots or foods colored with beetroot extract or beetroot pigments. The color is caused by the excretion of betalain (betacyanin) pigments such as betanin. The coloring is highly variable between individuals and between different occasions, and can vary in intensity from invisible to strong. The pigment is sensitive to oxidative degradation under strongly acidic conditions. Therefore, the urine coloring depends on stomach acidity and dwell time as well as the presence of protecting substances such as oxalic acid. Beeturia is often associated with red or pink feces.

yes
Beeturia är att passera röd eller rosa urin efter att ha ätit rödbetor eller livsmedel färgade med rödbetor extrakt eller rödbetor pigment. Färgen orsakas av utsöndringen av betalainpigment (betacyanin) som betanin. Färgsättningen är starkt variabel mellan individer och mellan olika tillfällen, och kan variera i intensitet från osynlig till stark. Pigmentet är känsligt för oxidativ nedbrytning under starkt sura förhållanden. Därför beror urinfärgningen på magsyra och uppehållstid samt förekomsten av skyddande ämnen som oxalsyra. Beeturia förknippas ofta med röd eller rosa avföring. Är följande uttalande korrekt baserat på texten kan ditt kiss bli rött efter att ha ätit betor Alternativ: - nej - ja
