Concentrated urine is just that, toxic urine, and also can make it uncomfortable to pee.
One should drink at least 8 cups (okay, there's arguments among scientists on exactly an amount) but something like that of water or thin liquid a day, and some of that water should have electrolytes, such as a modest amount of sodium and potassium wouldn't be bad either.
Too little or too much water both are bad things, the first overdriving your kidneys, the second doing the same and possibly causing multiple organ failure.
No matter what you have to face in life, it is not prudent to play around with your excretory systems like that.-- Jay
