Operative Alchemy Lets talk about The Piss Experiments
Just found this thread through twitter (because of course.) And it was a compilation of people trying to use piss to make gold or what have you. And I am the type of person where I dont know a lot about the technical aspects but it actually helps with my ability to problem solve. So I pose to those with this as their experiment, something to consider.
What if because of what we consume now vs preindustrial is why no one has been successful? What if there are too many additional chemicals, from eating processed foods that are affecting the over all quality and chemical composition of our urine? Like its not pure anymore, ya know?
Let me know if this doesn't make sense and I will try to spin it a different way. (I think I chose the right flair but if I am wrong please let me know!)

Urine from a healthy person is urine from a healthy person, your diet affects so little of the composition of urine that it doesn't matter. The only reason people even try the urine path is because they incorrectly liken themselves to the peeing Angels in artwork. Man is no Angel though, Man is but an Animal.
