Is tank water nasty to you?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Why would you want this crappy water (and that's exactly what it is) in your mouth? It's a choice you make, as there is absolutely no reason or need for it. I know some people drink their own urine, also can't fathom why.
What's next, licking the inside of your filters?

Its by accident. To start a siphon the conventional way is to suck on it to get it flowing.

No one really wants to drink it. People are into kinky stuff. Look up Cleveland steamer.

Not that I will ever do this........................but in a healthy individual, urine is actually sterile........and nearly the same compositon as sweat......which many people get all over their face, eyes and mouth on a regular basis. Food for thought

That's why I mentioned mouth wash. Good old alcohol as an antiseptic.

Its always been my belief that you need to have a tiny exposure to the bad stuff just to keep that immune system honed and sharp. My career is in the medical field, so I do have a pretty good understanding of pathogens

To some degree yes, but then there is also Sally down on the street corner...
 
I'm exposed to pathogens on a daily basis, at home, in the yard, at work, like most of us, probably 24/7 to some extent. I don't need to swirl fish shat in my mouth for a probiotic boost.

I work in a prison and I also do Fire & HAZMAT for the county. So maybe that makes me a little more concerned about putting unidentified substances in my mouth. Especially prison ;)

Yea, maybe I'm not as concern since I don't work in a prison. I just work in an inner city hospital where we only serve health conscious and up-standing citizens ;)
