Can you really drink your own urine 3 times with no ill effects??

Question

I heard that after the 3rd time your urine becomes poisonous....is this true??

Answer 1

well. if that's all you drank, it might be possible. maybe you should drink other people's urine for variety. let us know if it works for ya.

Answer 2

I don't know if there are ill effects from drinking your own urine but the 3 times bit would have nothing to do with it. It is either poisonous or not.

Answer 3

I worked with a fruitcake who would insist to people asking about vitamins that you should just drink your urine, it had everything you needed in it for minerals and B-vitamins. He said the best stuff was the urine from first thing in the morning....yeah we lost a lot of customers when he worked at the store.
Of course I think he meant in addition to other fluids like water.
I'm not tempted to find out.....but I think it would start to build up too many waste products in it and start getting lethal if that was the only fluid you were getting in.

Answer 4

Uhh, I'm not gonna even venture to guess why you asked this one.

Anyway, urine is sterile once it exits you - mostly it contains all those nice contaminants you don't want your body to have; especially uric acid.

Might be injurious, but it sounds like a silly myth. Be damned if I'm going to encourage testing about the matter.

Answer 5

You can drink it if you filter it, in the deserts especially the Sahara, the bedowin tribes use a method to filter it, granted it should only be done in life or death situations...ew

Answer 6

who measures his urine. and will only drink that amout in a day.
no extra fluid.
