Why does my urine sometimes smell like Cheerios?

do you take a multi vitamin?
ever notice how vitamins smell like cereal and vice-versa. Hence the "fortified with 8 essential vitamins" lable.

Do you eat asparagus?

Asparagus' unique aroma definitely doesn't smell like Cheerios. What I find interesting is how quickly the odor hits one's urine after eating the veggie. I wonder why.

Nope. No vitamins or asparagus. Hmm...had thai food last night?

Maybe Cheerios smells like urine...hmmm

sometimes a change in the smell of urine can be related to un-regulated levels of blood sugar... maybe mention it at your next doctor's appointment.

Don’t know but definitely would have my sugar level checked just to be safe. If its only occasionally, the best way to identify if you sugar is high at that moment, would be to use a glucose meter.
The gold standard for diabetes testing is the Hemoglobin A1C as it captures your average blood sugar over the past 3 months.

Keep in mind, it may just be due to something you ate either by itself or in combination but get your sugar checked. Many people have pre-diabetes for years before actually coming down with diabetes.

Are you svelte or, like the rest of us, a little more “solidly”” built?Diabetes is associated w. carrying “a little too much weight, ” I think. It is a disease that no one in my family has ever had.

I had been diagnosed with pre-diabetes. Went on diet and lost 15 lbs. Was tested again and it went away, back to normal. Just tested again recently and it came in at a 6.0 (Hemoglobin A1C) and finger test taken and it came back at 83. Which is good. I felt it had returned. Getting up to urinate at night like 3 or more times. I also smell something in my urine. Don’t know what it can be. It just started about one week ago. So, I don’t know what it can be from. I do take supplements on and off. Fish oil, vit. E, etc.
