Have you ever drunk your own urine?

It doesn't make a lot of sense for many reasons

Why? The digestive tract uses energy to overcome osmosis... IIRC something like 80% of the water that is excreted at one point is then reabsorbed later, or something like that anyway. Doesn't mean the thing's not a myth for other reasons of course.

I had the worst tulips of my life in Bali a couple of months ago, I was drinking 2 litres of water an hour to replace what was coming out the other side. I thought that not drinking water would eventually stop the runs but it was explained to me that the water is taken out the system in the upper intestine and the body is flushing the bowel out by pushing the water back in at a later stage. Fluid intake or no fluid intake the body will still be pouring water into the bowel.

I had this mate right, went to bali didnt he. he only went and drank the water. After all my warnings

shat himself to death he did. 18 stone when he went out there, only weighed 9 pounds eleven ounces when he came back. just a bit of wrinkled skin and a worn out anus, that was all that was left. tragic. tragic

Bali is just a toxic place to westeners, got a bite on my big toe there about 10 years ago and my leg looked like a Callaway Big Bertha.

So which one of us is going to test the theory?

No drinking water for two days and squirting salty fluid up the back passage for hydration.

from what your missus says, it has to go further up. maybe some sort of tube is required
