I once read a book about the fate of 42 Salvadoreans who crossed the desert into AZ one time, insufficiently prepared for the trek, not accustomed to the dangers of crossing the desert in July. By the time the few survivors were rescued, they were all so short of urine, the urine they had recently drank was almost dark brown. Yikes! But, it saved their lives!!!
I also read about some shipwrecked sailors who got stuck in the Saharan Desert, and they resorted to drinking the urine of camels, as it was more highly prized and tasty than their own urine. Yikes, once again!
Well, I'm sure it's not exactly pleasant, but in some cases you do what you have to do.
i can't see how something that carries the wastes out of our body could possibly be good to put back in our body...
From what i have heard THERE IS NO WASTE IN YOUR PEE.. YOUR BODY CANT USE ALL THE VITAMINS,ETC ALL AT ONCE SO IT PEE's THE REST OUT .... Re-introducing it into your system will not hurt you..... (The taste must not be very pleasant though)

Dude, by definition, urine and feces are WASTE products....that is why they are excreted....
I was recently watching TABOO on National Geographic channel. They did an episode on people in Melbourne who drink their own pee!!!!
These people thought that it was better for you. They would even put it on their skin!!!!
Has anyone seen this episode and have any thoughts?
The only possible positive thing I can say about this is that unless you have a UTI, urine is sterile. That said BBBBBLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! !!!!!! Disgusting
Ya I have read they say its the cleanest thing one can drink!! (Its the taste I think that would throw me off)
