This morning, I peed in a cup because I wanted to try this disinfectant method. But I couldn’t pour it on my feet. So, I just turned on the shower and poured it into the shower while the water was running over it. I watched it go down the drain, before turning off the shower. I decided to try this as an experiment to see if anything positive comes out of it.
I remember watching an Friends episode during reruns, where the Friends casts had gone to a beach trip. Monica had stepped on a jellyfish on the beach. During the next couple of minutes, she was describing how painful it is to Chandler and Joey. Joey noted he watched a documentary about pissing on the body part to disinfect it. They spent the next couple of minutes arguing who will piss on Monica’s foot. It was funny…I forgot the ending anyway, and who actually did it…
I don’t think I am ready to pee on my foot. It is too weird for me. If I pee on myself, then it is usually accidental, not on purpose.
I have a movie meetup this evening.
that is in my neighborhood.
I used to joke with my friends that the way to get few comments is to be real. … There are some supporters for this jellyfish cure but I want to go with Scientific American. Here’s a funny article that also mentions the episode. Until now I was completely unaware of any of this! – https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/fact-or-fiction-urinating/
i also heard about people in india who drink their urine for health.
I can’t refute that this practice is wrong. I am familiar with the theory that while sleeping you lose water soluble vitamins and some people believe drinking their urine in the morning is a way to replace them. And, I am aware that in survival situations, as a last resort, drinking urine might save your life and it can be done. Hopefully I will never try these things. It is important that it is consumed relatively quickly as urine can be a real hotbed for bacterias. You know, it just can’t taste good or be pleasant.
