FAQ: Preparing for a Pacific crossing. November 28, 2010. Over the last few months, weâve had a progressive number of questions from friends who are getting ready for their own Pacific crossing. Iâve aggregated the most common questions, and provided some information based on our experience this year.
Causes of Stinky Urine: Habits and Substances That Make Your Pee Smell Bad. There are many things that can cause stinky urine. There are many different types of smelly pee as well, from urine that just has a strong odor to urine that smells like nail polish remover, rotten cabbage or even like fruit.
The reasons your urine has a strong odor include: -Foods, medications and vitamins can all potentially cause your urine to smell. For example, eating asparagus or pineapple can both change your urine's odor in different ways. -Dehydration can leave the urine more concentrated, so it takes on more of an ammonia-like smell. -Bacteria in the urine can give it a foul odor. This can be caused by a bladder infection or fistula (when an opening forms between the bladder and bowel). -What causes urine to smell sweet? This may be due to high blood sugar, and can be a sign of poorly controlled diabetes.
