Diluting juice makes me pee so much

[KarlaMayRose]

Wondering if I am the only one this happens too lol

Maybe you drink more, as it’s sweet, than you would it it was just water?

Yes I have just poured myself a second glass whereas I would never drink 2 glasses of water. Unless you have an allergy I think you are just drinking more.

PS Are you Scottish?

Squash makes you pee more, particularly blackcurrant as it's an irritant. The artificial sweeteners act in the same way as they irritate your bladder.

Squash without sweeteners (which are almost impossible to find) don't have the same effect

Blackcurrant and darker cordials can have a diuretic effect.

@Birdsongsinging @ PS are you Scottish - the “diluting juice” is such a giveaway isn’t it :)

I love that we say diluting juice!

Yes I am Scottish is it just us that says diluting juice haha.

I think more to do with the water as ever since I was a kid water just goes right through me. I can literally just finish a glass and need to pee.
