I observed many years ago that the color of my urine changes with changes in the severity of depression and upon responding to treatment.
My urine is clear when I am feeling more depressed, and an almost fluorescent yellow when I begin to respond to treatment. It can fluctuate from day to day or even hour to hour. It is always a reflection of my current depressive state.
The pigment in the urine that gives it a yellow color is called urochrome. It is my guess that the change of color from clear to yellow is an index of protein turnover. There might be a growth hormone thing going on here.
