Learn the safest way to have your own urine [video]

Have you heard of urine therapy? We present a special article about this practice here at Mega Curioso (click here to check it), showing that there is nothing to prove the benefits and that there are also studies that indicate possible health problems of those who take their own urine.

However, according to a video posted by The Royal Institution on YouTube, there is a way to consume pee without the risks offered by drinking this liquid. In the recording, which you can see at the top of the text, Dr. Kevin Fong gives a brief presentation to an audience of teenagers in which he drinks his own urine to demonstrate the safe way to do this.

It is a liquid filtered by an osmosis process in a specially prepared pouch. As you can imagine, the yellow liquid you flush out daily is full of impurities, and if your body pours it out, it doesn't make much sense to replace these substances in your body. Therefore, a filter bag like Fong's is the only alternative to safely drink urine. The final product contains only filtered water mixed with a type of pee syrup that maintains the appearance of urine.

So, it is worth mentioning that you will probably only take this if you find yourself in a survival situation. This is because, as you can see from the recording, the filtered urine also has a very bad smell, look and even taste, similar to the “original” version.
