It is in no way good for you. However it is not neccesarily horribly bad for you. The body is not 100% efficient and therefore does not absorb every single nutrient from the food and drinks we consume.
So, reconsuming your waste will in a way give your body a second chance and will absorb the nutrients it missed the first time the best it can. All the waste will still be considered waste and passed on as urine or stool.
I still don't recommend that you rely on your own urine as a means of sustenance.

Actually, gross as it sounds, other cultures do drink their urine...and urine is actually STERILE
Here's a charming quote from this site:
"Some prefer it straight and steaming hot; others mix it with juice or serve it over fruit. Some prefer a couple of urine drops mixed with a tablespoon of water applied sublingually several times a day. Hip New Agers no doubt prefer to take their dose with their evening salad tossed with Piss & Vinegar dressing, available at alternative specialty shops. Some wash themselves in their own golden fluid to improve their skin quality. Many modern Japanese women are said to engage in urine bathing."

Let's not forget what urine is: body WASTE. Obviously, your body has nop use for it anymore and excretes it from the body. I wonder how this could possibly be good for anyone to but toxins back in th body. Think about what happens if you hold your bladder too long, the bacteria in the urine causes an infection. So based on that, I don;'t think one should drink their own urine...hot or cold!

They either drink it ast room temperature or cold... you're supposd to drink it quickly after you pee it out though because it is a petri dish in a way. You can mix in grapfruit juice, but hey say that shortchanges yoursdelf, because part if the effect is psychological, and to know that you diluted the urine and did not drink it purely, the effect will not ebt he same.

You can actually drink urine twice (drink.. redigest.. drink) I believe before it becomes dangerous... at least that's what I heard.
I guess it would probably depend on personal preference... I drink waters, sodas, juice, etc cold.. However, I drink hard liquor warm. So I guess it would differe with each person's tastes.

Ok if you are in the desert, and the only way of survival is drinking your urine, would you also find a microwave buried in the sand or kettle pre plugged in????

I have heard that you need to drink it straight away. Eventually it will come out clear, and Rolf Harris used to do it (allegedly).
