I do every day in the shower. I've acquired a taste for it. Please help

No. Seriously. Your kidneys filter out waste -- stuff your body can't use or which is harmful -- and then mixes that with water to make urine. Drinking urine is like carefully vacuuming a rug and then dumping the bag in the middle of the same rug the next day. You keep filtering out the same garbage day after day, and the garbage gets really concentrated and stale. And after a while your vacuum cleaner will stop cleaning because it has an overfull bag -- it just can't handle any more dirt. Something similar happens with your kidneys -- you've filtered out the same toxins over and over again and keep adding new junk every day, and finally the kidneys give out. Believe me, you don't want that!

That is wrong on so many levels. Urine is a waste product. If you were trapped in the desert for days with no potable water, then cool, wet your whistle, but in the shower? Take a Capri Sun or something in there with you next time.

there's not really anything wrong with it other than for some people who think it is immoral and sinful and disgusting. Reality is urine is quite sterile as it leaves the body (unless you have a urinary tract infection) so drinking it, whiel a bit kinky is not going to kill you. I would not suggest makign it a habit in showers at yrou local gym or Y though; it may not be considered socially acceptable there.

I really don't know why you continue to do that, but I feel that you should just stop and find something else to drink while in the shower.

Either this is a fake question, or you have a serious problem. I'm guessing the first one. Well FYI, it's okay to drink it if it's fresh. It's actually mostly water and very sterile.

thats kind of nasty dude and it isn't bad for you at least i don't think but urine contains acids and it's bodily waste like everything you ate and drank piss is everything you didn't need and it's just bodily waste so i doubt it's ok unless you are in dire situation and need liquids

Why would you want to? but ther's no harm in drinking it. I heard that Japanese people apply their own urine for aches & pains. Have you ever tasted your sperm? I did it out of curiosity.

I've heard it's good for your physical health, but I have never tried it and don't intend to. As for you, I am just glad you aren't someone i have to kiss.

your basicly filtering filtered body wastes, your body dumps it for a reason, plus it tastes disgusting.
