How can adequate water intake be judge by the color of urine?
The clearer your urine, the more water intake. The more yellow the urine, the less water intake. The yellow color of urine is a consequence of certain molecules our body produces. The intensity of color therefore depends on the production of these molecule by our body and the amount of water we drink and subsequently excrete in the urine.

What will alcohol do to the density of urine?
Alcohol actually affects the brain which in turn, affects urine production. ADH (anti-diuretic hormone)is a hormone produced in the hypothalamus and excreted by the pituitary gland. This hormone makes the kidney absorb the water in the bloodstream. When a person drinks alcohol, the excretion of ADH hormone is decreased. Therefore, the kidney does not absorb the water as it should. Then more urine is made. When more urine is made, it is less dense. Because the ADH hormone is decreased, people can produce too much urine and get dehydrated from drinking too much alcohol.
