Clear urine can indicate that you are well-hydrated, which is generally a good sign. However, in the context of diabetes, it could also be a sign of frequent urination due to high blood sugar levels. When blood sugar levels are high, the kidneys work harder to filter out the excess glucose, which can lead to increased urination and potentially clearer urine. If you have diabetes and notice changes in your urine, it's important to discuss this with your healthcare provider.
