Does anyone else here get super stinky pee when they eat asparagus. Legend has it that if yours stinks after eating it (it doesn't effect everyone) then you a born leader and fit to be king/queen! On top of that super smart too.

I must REALLLY ROCK!
 
hmmmm, not after asparagus, but omg, if I drink tea...it's just nasty. It has always worried me a little. I wonder what it means.
 
Studies indicate that about 79% of Americans are "excreters" -- they excrete smelly sulfur compounds in their urine -- as are about half the people in Britain. Non-excreters don't suffer asparagus-eating's effect on urine odor because they don't produce these sulfur compounds. The ability to "excrete" is inherited.

So, is "excreting" then considered a good thing or a bad thing? or does it matter? Because I just had some asparagus this week, and I didn't notice anything... different.
 
Everything I've read says it doesn't really matter. It's kinda like being able to roll your tongue or not ... just a sort of genetic quirk. :)
 
You know they did a study in the 80s that I am reading about that it actually isn't whether you excrete it or not, but whether or not you can smell it. So according to their study, everyone does it, but can't smell it.

Interesting.

I've heard that as well ... that everyone excretes, but only some can smell it.

I would believe that could be true - I wonder if it's related to being a super taster or not?

Crown me....my asparagus pee stinks and I can smell it.:patriot:
