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?

Urine is the byproduct or fluid secreted by the kidneys, transported by
the ureters to the urinary bladder where it is stored until it is
voided through the urethra. It is a transparent solution that is clear
to amber in colour, and usually is light yellow. Urine is made up of a
watery solution of metabolic wastes (such as urea), dissolved salts and
organic materials. Fluid and materials being filtered by the kidneys,
destined to become urine, comes from the blood or interstitial fluid.
The composition of urine is adjusted in the process of reabsorption
when essential molecules needed by the body, such as glucose, are
reabsorbed back into the blood stream via carrier molecules. The
remaining fluid contains high concentrations of urea and other excess
or potentially toxic substances that will be released from the body via
urination. Urine flows through these structures: the kidney, ureter,
bladder, and finally the urethra. Urine is produced by a process of
filtration, reabsorption, and tubular secretion.

Urine contains large amounts of urea, an excellent source of nitrogen
for plants. As such it is a useful accelerator for compost. Urea is
10,000 times less toxic than ammonia and is a byproduct of deamination
(2 NH3 molecules) and cellular respiration's (1 CO2 molecule) products
combining together. Other components include various inorganic salts
such as sodium chloride (the discharge of sodium through urine is known
as "natriuresis".)

No its not just excess minerals it's toxins. And when you are
dehydrated the toxins become concentrated. It would be about the same
as drinking sal****er.

No....drinking sal****er would dehydrate you...and the more you
drink the more you want so the more you drink causing your kidneys
to fail...judicious drinking of urine would keep you alive...maybe
not so healthy...but alove....

Drinking urine does the same thing.

You're introducing more toxins that ....require more moisture to
remove...... infact dehydrating you faster just like sal****er.

Well, then, let's make an experimnet...we'll use you as the
sal****er drinker, bobspit as the urine drinker...
both of you drink your respective substance for three days and we'll
see who wins.

No let's not. But it is sailing related knowledge that could save your
life or kill you.

It would be nice to know the truth.

I think many survive despite drinking urine, and sal****er, and many
die from doing so.

Next thing you know Bob will endorse drinking blood.

Only three days?? Not long enough.

I'm thinking more like a month or so.

If drinking blood is not ok, then why is a blood transfusion ok?

I don't know if there has been anything authoritative, but, as far as I
can tell, drinking seawater won't help. Drinking urine might prolong your
life a day or two.

Acne...

All the **** drinking sites suggest drinking at least a liter of water
with a glass of wizz.

And the side effects listed are longer and more dangerious than most
class one narcotics.

I guess the best thing to learn from this womans story of surival is to
keep several gallons of water in your dink if your crusing.
Don't go ashore and try to row back in extreme conditionsthat will
allow you to be washed to sea.
Have a set of good sails on your dink, or have an outboard that can go
faster than any tide and wind combined.

I learned in a survival class in the Service that you could recycle
your urine up to three times IF you were alternating with an equal
amount of fresh water.
