The amount of water you drink directly affects the color of your urine, according to a report from Harvard Health Publications. Your urine is composed of excess water and waste elements that are filtered from your blood by your kidneys. The darker your urine, the more concentrated these waste products are, signaling a lack of water. If you suffer from dehydration, your urine will become a dark amber color and look murky with a smell stronger than normal. Too much water, however, can cause over hydration and can overwork your kidneys.
