Re: Waker claims to be a medical expert...
and yet he seems ignorant of the fact that pee is sterile.
Oh it is huh?
AI Overview
No, urine is not sterile. While traditionally it was thought to be sterile, modern research has shown that urine contains bacteria, even in healthy individuals. These bacteria are typically present at low levels and are often harmless, but they are not completely absent as previously believed.
Here's why:
Traditional beliefs:
Older methods of testing urine were not sensitive enough to detect low levels of bacteria.
Newer techniques:
Advanced techniques like 16S rRNA sequencing and expanded urine cultures have revealed the presence of bacteria in urine samples from healthy individuals.
The urobiome:
The urinary tract, including the bladder, has its own microbiome, a community of bacteria that can be both beneficial and harmful.
Low levels, but not sterile:
While the bacteria in urine are often present in low concentrations and may not cause problems, they are still present and contribute to the urinary microbiome.
Health implications:
The presence of bacteria in urine, even in low levels, can be significant in understanding and treating urinary tract infections and other related conditions.
Sooooo now that you have been proven wrong yet again ickus,
Wanna take a stab at the OP?
Do you still believe the Steele dossier to be true?
