Is it safe to drink your own urine?

Question

ive heard it is safe to drink and good for skin complection and many other things but how much should you drink of it ?

Answer 1

I always check the answers first, unlike faeces, urine is not only sterile but is mildly antiseptic, it was used in the trenches in WW1 to clean wounds when no clean water was available, it contains no bacteria and is not poisonous.

All that being said, you body carefully extracts all the soluble waste products in your body and gets rid of them in your urine, if your body has done it's best to get rid of them, why on earth would it be beneficial to drink it?

But to answer your question, yes it is safe if you want to follow the nutters who do.

"Urine is apparently very good for you! You can drink it, rinse your mouth with it, gargle with it and wash your hair with it. It is benefits your immune system, skin, teeth, gums and hair. MMA fighter Luke Cummo does it, and so does Joe Rogan, as admitted live on UFC!

Answer 28

My only "experience" of this was as part of my survival and escape & evasion training. Evidently, you can drink it - it's sterile - but it contains so many dissolved salts that it actually dehydrates you, so it's not good from a survival point of view.

No, Stupid
