Don't Be Gullible, Urine is Not Gatorade!
2009-09-16 03:51:00 If you are considering drinking your own pee to enhance your athletic performance you are as gullible as a boy scout believing the stories he hears around the campfire. Although there are some great combat sports players that seem to believe in this new Urban Folklore, like Lyota Machida,Luke Cummo and Juan Manuel Marquez (the boxer who drank his pee on HBO's 24/7), they are accomplishing nothing more than drinking piss! Get that straight. Urine contains so few minerals and vitamins. In fact, urine is about 95-98% water depending on how hydrated you are at the time of urinating. The remaining content is urea (Gross!), salts, hormones and some enzymes. Remember guys, it is the body's waste... need I say...
NASA Purified urine to be drinking water
2009-09-15 20:41:00 Purified urine to be astronauts' drinking waterAs NASA prepares to double the number of astronauts living aboard the International Space Station, nothing may do more for crew bonding than a machine being launched aboard the space shuttle Endeavour on Friday.It's a water-recycling device that will process the crew's urine for communal consumption."We did blind taste tests of the water," said NASA's Bob Bagdigian, the system's lead engineer. "Nobody had any strong objections. Other than a faint taste of iodine, it is just as refreshing as any other kind of water.""I've got some in my fridge," he added. "It tastes fine to me."Delivery of the $250 million wastewater recycling gear is among the primary goals of NASA's 124th shuttle mission, which is due to launch at 7:55 p.m. EST on Friday from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.Meteorologists predicted a 70 percent chance the weather would be suitable for launch.With no technical issues, NASA managers told the launch team on Fri...

Involuntary loss of urine is a very troublesome symptom
2008-05-06 09:48:00 This may occur in children and when associated with bed-wetting is usually termed enuresis. Up to 4-5 years of age this may be quite common, and when persistent usually indicates some psychological distress. Congenital defects in the formation of the urinary organs may contribute to this disorder, and they can be evaluated with a specific x-ray study, the intravenous pyelogram.Most cases of childhood incontinence subside with the passage of years. Women of childbearing age may have incontinence after the delivery of a large baby. Or with successive pregnancies, the support of the bladder and urethra may be weakened, producing a hernia or prolapse called a cystocele. Often this is associated with stress incontinence on sneezing, coughing, or straining. The Kegel exercises described in the chapter on gynecology are often helpful in alleviating these symptoms. If persistent anatomic defect is demonstrated, surgical repair may be indicated to restore continence and alleviate the anxiety...
Asparagus and Urine Odor - What Causes It
2008-05-03 23:59:00 Does asparagus make your urine smell funny? If so, you're among sbout 50% of the population that notices an odor in their urine after eating asparagus. Marcel Proust wrote about the situation in Swann's Way: ... the precious essence that I recognized again when, all night long following a dinner at which i had eaten them, they played, in farces as crude and poetic as a fairy play by Shakespeare, at changing my chamber pot into a jar of perfume. This change in your chamber pot is caused by a certain sulfur compound in asparagus called mercaptan that imparts a strange odor to the urine. It's the same compound that gives skunks their offensive odor. Nobody's really sure why only half the world's urine takes on this skunky odor after eating asparagus, but there are theories. One theory is that only half the population has the gene that enables the body to break down mercaptan. Another theory is that everyone's urine smells after eating asparagus, but only half the popul...

Simple urine test beats PSA in detecting prostate cancer
2008-02-02 11:58:00 An experimental, non-invasive biomarker test has shown promise to accurately detect prostate cancer, more than any other screening method currently in use, say researchers. Developed at the University of Michigan, the screening method is a simple urine test that detects the presence of four different RNA molecules. During a study, this method accurately identified 80 percent of patients who were later found to have prostate cancer. Furthermore, it was 61 percent effective in ruling out disease in other study participants, say the researchers. According to the researchers, this test is even more accurate than the newer PCA3 test, which screens for a molecule specific to prostate cancer. "Relative to what is out there, this is the best test so far," said the study's lead author, Arul Chinnaiyan, director of the Michigan Center for Translational Pathology at the University of Michigan.

Cigarette Carcinogens Found In Urine Of Smokers’ Babies
2008-01-22 09:13:00 A team of researchers from The Cancer Center of the University of Minnesota detected cancer-causing compounds in the urine of babies who were in constant exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS). This finding supports the concept that persistent exposure to ETS can contribute to the development of cancer later in life. They collected urine from 144 infants, aged 3 to 12 months, who lived in homes where at least one parent was a smoker. Urine from 67 of these babies contained detectable amounts of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyri-dyl)-1-butanol (NNAL) and its O-glucuronide (NNAL-Gluc), which are by-products produced when the body processes NNK (4-(Methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-Pyr-idyl)-1-Butanone), a tobacco-specific potent carcinogen. NNAL is itself a lung carcinogen. NNAL was detected in babies with family members who smoked an average of 76 cigarettes per week in the home or in the car. Where NNAL was not detected, family members smoked an average of 27 cigarettes per week. Source :...
