    Part A: The Vitamin O.D.

    So you will need to take double or triple the dose of multi-vitamin you would normally take or is suggested. It should include a wide series of the B-vitamins. Don’t worry a single day of this will not have any ill-effects on you. For the asparagus record about how much and when you ate it.

    1) Record the approximate “transit time” (consumption to traces in urine).

    2) Look at the urine color and compare it to your normal color- and try to have similar hydration states.

    3) Be aware of the smell- is there any odor to it- again compared to normal- especially with the asparagus test.

    4) What type of vitamins (water or lipid soluble) do you suspect are in it? For asparagus test do research on the compound that is released in some.

    5) Look up what (vitamins/minerals/elements) can affect urine color or odor?

    6) Did you notice extra bubbles (foam) in the urine?
