oeNeo

piss black if you drank enough coke?

I know that you would probably die before you would.. but could you? Even just a little?

This is NOT a troll. I really want to know.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

oeNeo

Yes, we went over it in IRC. You're all stupid though, that's why I'm asking on this forum. Hopefully someone who's in 'teh know' will reply.

Coke isn't black though...
Anyway, your stomach breaks down all the colourings and stuff, so I doubt it would ever change to an unnatural colour.

oeNeo

What colour is coke? Very, very, very, very, very, very, dark brown?

oeNeo

Sigh. People are saying I'll get banned for asking this. I'd better not! I really want to know dammit!

STaN

nearly as bad as my "suck or blown" into space thread.

... and i still don't know if things get sucked into space or blown into space :rolleyes:

exiztone

In a bottle.
You put it in a stream as thin as your.... urination and you'd barely notice it's brown.

there was a kid who dies of a car crash. when they did an otopsy on him they looked at his liver (aperently its standard procedure). the kid had drunk liters of "SunnyD" a day for years. his liver (now dont quote me, not sure if it was his liver, this is from memory) was yellow/orange (or what ever colour Sunny D is).

****ed up aint it

STaN

well i bet your body would absorb them. I don't think its "black coloring"

elexes

u wont but if blood seeps into the stomack u have a very gud chance it will look like tar ...

Seaneh

no, you couldn't ever piss black unless you were very fookin' sick.

The reason you poop is brown is because of the pigment from your blood and the colourent's from all the food/luquids you intake.
The only thinsk you piss are Water, Uria and Amonia(sp?).

So, nar nar.


Piss black indeed.

oeNeo

Have you ever tried it?

oeNeo

Also, shit isn't always brown. It can be black after Guinness and red if you have some kind of problem and maybe even yellow!

The answer is no. Urine is usually a shade of yellow (concentration dependant shading) and can change due to diet (eg. levels of urea or of vitamins such as B2 and folic acid). There are a few disorders which change the color of urine in a dramatic way.

Generally if urine was brown or Coke colored it would imply that you have a liver or bile duct problem.
Red urine is usually traces of blood although some medicine used in aggresive therapies are not broken down by the liver and can have a red appearance.

There is a genetic defect that causes black urine, its pretty rare and I only remember it from college lectures.

Just carrying on that Sunny D thing. A girl made the Cork Examiner because her skin pigmentation had turned to yellow. Then again The Examiner is a rag.

Neo- I resent that comment!!

Jaundice is when your skin goes yellow (liver problems)

The colour in coke is from either carmalisation / sugars reacting with the amino group on amino acids - so should be lost fairly quickly as is hydrolysed by your digestive system.

Sunny D use fluorescent colours
I recognised Fluoroscine (green) (used to trace underground streams 'cos does not kill fishes) and Rhodamine (Violet)
Also SunnyD is only about 5% fruit juice (and don't let anyone convince you they paid extra for good fruit juice...)

I reckon it's true that a Methylene Blue tablet will colour your urine (blue).

PS. If your urine is darkly coloured / concentreted - drink more water...

SOL

No but if you eat enough blackberry, (a lot) you can piss purple

Have you ever heard of a story getting exagerated?
Jesus would it hurt you to THINK for about 10 mins before you speak?

Carrots will also turn your skin orange, but only if eaten in huge quantities.
