MODERATORS
If I remember correctly, this type of study is inherently flawed because it just measures how long fluids stay in your body before you urinate, which is a useless metric. There is no benefit to a fluid staying in your system for a longer amount of time than the equivalent amount of a different fluid. Please correct me if I am wrong.
IIRC you're supposed to drink until you urinate in order to confirm proper hydration. Drinking milk until I pee sounds tough.
Only the strongest wills club.
