      I’ve also felt this when eating spicier than usual food. Kind of threw off the taste too

      Perhaps it could have been, your mucuous membranes reacting to the spicyness, rather than having them in your urine itself? Many autoimmune disorders tend to react strongly, to certain eaten things (like spices) - chronic bladder wall inflammation being one of them, for example - so I assume it could be possible, for that sort of reaction, to happen mildly and temporarily, with an excessive exposure like that.

    Guess where almost all your fatass has to go in order to lose it? Your lungs. You have to breathe out more than goes into your face hole. That’s a lot of breathing.

    Listen, urine comes from your no-no spot and I want to drink it straight from the tap because I am an alchemist and know urine’s true potential. Please, everyone, pee on me to make me more powerful, and I will defeat Donald Trump in this next election…

        Damn right! That’s my teleological purpose! I offend both the religious and secular, and thus make more religious. I’ve invented Mormon Occultism. People that rebel in the Mormon church will find me as I am the quasi-opposition of orthodox religious congregations, while people who seek truth from a secular perspective can debate me and I will win having studied philosophy into the 30th grade. This makes me an attractor membrane to orthodox Mormonism. God thought thus through for me, because God knows my dumb ass wouldn’t have come up with this myself, because damn am I a horny son of a bitch.

    Fun fact: what ever you eat is wrapped around by your body, but it’s not in the body.

    Humans are topologically a seven? hole donut.

    If you don’t take in any liquids for long enough you won’t have any urine. It’s carried by your blood from source to destination. Your sweat similarly is from liquid transported by your blood

        this may be anecdotal, but yes? worked in a high humidity/heat job and no matter how much water i drank, I’d only have to piss once that day

        but would sweat so much!

          I wonder what the limiting thing was. Was it your body’s ability to process the water you were drinking? So, if you’d had more to drink, it might not have been safe? Or was it that your body’s thirst signal was turned off, but you still could have processed more water, it just wasn’t necessary?

          Do you remember if that one piss was dark yellow? I wonder if you were sweating so much that your kidneys were making very concentrated pee because the amount of “unclaimed” water in the blood was low, and most of it was going towards sweating.

          That reminds me of going motorcycling in the summer. I was sweating buckets, but as soon as my body squeezed out a drop of sweat, it was immediately whipped off by 100 km/h winds. I remember drinking crazy amounts of water, and being surprised that I didn’t pee nearly as much as I was drinking. But, I still think I was peeing more than once per day.

    I mean… It’s not like there is a tube from your digestive tract to your kidneys… How else would it get there?

    Btw, I’m really smart and humble if you didn’t notice

    That, and then you realize that you primarily lose weight through your breathing.

    It all comes from your digestive tract. Unless you’re getting iv, subq or even more interesting io fluids. Though if you’re getting io fluids your kidneys are likely getting fucked up enough to not produce urine for awhile and if you’re getting subcutaneous fluids you’re likely a cat or a dog or something.

      While that would still be the digestive tract, I would also like to say that liquid absorption works from both ends equally well. In theory you can never drink from your mouth and still be perfectly hydrated ;)

        To be sure, the Murphy drip was used extensively in WW1. Kinda makes you wonder what those fucking WW2 coconut iv guys were doing when you had perfectly fine access from the bottom that could take boiled water full of pyrogens just fine. And if you’re in enough of a volume depleted state where a Murphy drip can’t help due to vasoconstriction then all that potassium from a volume infusion of coconut ivs is gonna kill ya anyway.

          I work in hospice and Macy catheters have been incredibly helpful for symptom management in homes when patients need extra support and we’re trying to avoid moving to inpatient.

    I think that makes sense, water is absorbed into the bloodstream, right? And then the kidneys filter the blood and the bad bits + excess water is peed out. Which is why your pee looks saturated yellow if you are dehydrated and almost clear (but don’t drink it!) when you have drank a lot of water.

    Any remaining water in your digestive tract that isn’t absorbed would be in your poos! If you have diarrhoea and your poos are all liquidy, that means water is not being absorbed properly (bad!)

    I didn’t do Biology, I’m a Physics+Chem student, so this could be completely wrong!
