Can Light Pink Urine Be A Result Of Having Salted Beet Chips?
Hi. I bought a bag of Beet Chips today at Trader Joe s.. It s was a small bag.. I ate the bag while driving home! Later on, say about 1 1/2, had to got to the bathroom too urinate! It was light pink, scared me at first since I have no pain in back or lower abdomen. Is this caused by the beet chips. They were just beets & lightly salted!
