I'm a bit concerned because for the past couple of months, my urine has been a deep yellow color. I'm wondering if this might be related to the glyciphage tablets I take. Could there be a connection, or is there something else I should consider?

The yellow urine indicates a lot of things like even if you are not taking enough water, the urine can be yellow. As said by my colleague, if you are on any multivitamin also it can be yellow. Have you started noticing after taking the glyciphage tablet or was OK in the past with the tablet also? Urinary tract infection can also cause a dark coloured urine. Here is what you can do, drink upto four litres of water a day and get a urine complete test done.

Can diabetics drink Boost?

Any store bought drinks although having health benefits, may also have carbohydrates and sugars which can cause sudden increase in blood sugar levels. Diabetics may not be able to control this surge due to their improper insulin in the body. Hence, one must read through the nutritional information before selecting any drink and also consume in moderation. It is always better to have natural fruits in their original form rather than juices or canned or syrups.
