The urea component of pee is what makes pee smell like pee and give it a yellow colouration in higher concentrations

Its a good indicator of your hydration because if your dehydrated your kidneys will desperately try to retain as much water as it can which can lead to minor damage at high concentrations of urea I believe due to its acidic composition

An easy way to stay hydrated is to have at least 3 1L bottles of water per day at a low-moderate level of activity and monitor your pee to check if you are recieiving the correct level of hydration.

Another interesting fact is that some researchers believe that dehydration/insufficient water over time can exacerbate the systems of aging and cause much damage likening it to your cars...
I got up one morning to discover my cats ears smelled exacty like bat wings. But later that day we found out I only smelled the wings because of a brain tumor. a Cosmic Ray had came lightyears and passed through my brain lobes. i didn't even feel anything or know it happened but they said it was why. a doctor had to remove all the conective tissue that holds both hemaspheres together and that's why it feels like there are two people living inside my body.
