ALA and bad smelling pee

[Lift Chief]

I get it too- but it's not a big deal- urine always smells bad.

I am not going to quit. Just wondering what it was that makes it smell like this and if it is hard on your kidneys?? I am sure Macro or uter will know!!

It smells like rotten cabbage or burnt plastic even with 2-3 gallons a day. I don't think it's hard on the kidneys.

Maybe I'm way off base here but isn't ALA extracted from asparagus and that's where the odor comes from.

I have noticed none of this with R-ALA, but with plain ALA, it is rank and nasty

Is this the common concensus, just curious why ala gives off that smell and rala doesn't... That smell is not normal...

ALA is sulfur based ... thats why your pee smells like rotten eggs. It's quite OK.
