Default Yachtswoman Survives on Urine!

Isn't urine just excess minerals?

The liver removes toxins.

Interesting post Bob,

I was told it was a bad ideal to drink your urine to prevent
dehydration.
That urine removes the toxins in your body. If you drink your **** your
body will need more water to remove the toxins only compounding the
problem. That is what was taught in Navy survival school.

Now the British special forces claim you can redrink your urine up to
3 times before it becomes toxic and of no use.

I think I would go for salt water before drinking from my own straw.

How long can the average person go without water before they die?
3 days maybe 4 right?
