This is good stuff. My first thought was of the quality of urine. Because of medications etc. But you answered it right as i was thinking it.
Question - diabetics with "sweet" urine. How do you think the excess sugar in the urine would affect this?
- also, i think it may be an interesting divot of info to point out not using the first few drops of urine as those are typically flushing the urethral canal of unwanted Bacteria..i would think wait for the mid flow. Right? Or no?
Also i think the video quality turned out just fine.
Great questions! The first one I'll have to pass on. Sweet urine, no idea. That needs some looking into, or I'll jut ask my mentor.
The second one regarding the bacteria I'm quite certain about. They would most likely perish in the water, as the growing medium needs to have a pH of 10 (or above). That's also the reason why the water is safe from other algae taking over. Now I can imagine it may have other microbes that thrive in such a highly alkaline environment, but those ones would probably perish in a lower pH. This last part is my own reasoning, but I'm gonna verify it.
Thanks for taking a stab at it! Helps answer some things. Curious about the sweet urine. Have a great day!
Also there are those who SWARE by drinking their own urine that's where i think i got the only use the main stream not the start.
Oh yeah, then there are urine enemas, some people also inject their own blood into their muscles (thighs or buttocks) with alleged health benefits. I don't object, but haven't gathered enough info on it to be for or against it.
One thing I have been doing, though, since childhood days, is pee on my finger when I cut myself. And yes, usually mid-stream, though I guess more out of practicality.
Never heard the blood thing. I don't think i could ever do anything with a needle. ... :/
