Prostate Restored

Leading up to a drug test, you really don't need more than one full glass. In fact, it's most ideal to provide your sample first thing in the morning before you've gone to the bathroom for the first time, so you're using the urine that was sitting in your bladder all night.

Read More »Oftentimes, when an employer sees a negative dilute drug test result, they'll send the employee back for another test. As an employer, note that a negative dilute test should not be considered grounds for rejecting an applicant or firing an employee. The only real conclusion you can draw from a negative test is that you need to perform a second. Similarly, an applicant or employee who provides a negative dilute specimen should not panic about being accused of doing drugs (unless, of course, you're doing drugs — in which case, feel free to panic). Science hasn't named one specific number — a precise amount of water to consume — that will end up as a dilute sample. It's easy enough for an employee to figure out, though, simply based on the color of their urine. The goal for them will be to get their urine as clear as possible, which is a sign that they're very hydrated and their urine is diluted. Just think about what your urine looks like when you first wake up in the morning, having gone all night with no water — it's typically very dark yellow in nature. That's because it's very undiluted. If you drink even close to the amount of water your body needs throughout the day, it will never look the way it does in the morning. So, to dilute urine, you must go in the opposite direction and drink an excessive amount of water in a short span of time, before you provide a specimen. The amount of water that will create a diluted sample likely varies from person to person. It might be a half gallon for one and a full gallon for another; but the rule of thumb for anyone trying to dilute urine is simple: don't stop chugging until your urine is clear.
The continuum includes: 1) Self-responsibility & Love; 2) Breathing; 3) Sensing; 4) Eating; 5)Moving; 6) Feeling; 7) Thinking; 8) Playing &...

Read More »If you're an employer, while you can send someone back for a second test if the first comes up negative dilute, you obviously can't control what an applicant or employee does in the day or hours leading up to their drug test. If they're not intentionally trying to cheat and want to remain cognizant of providing a proper specimen, though, there are undoubtedly things they can do to avoid a dilute drug test result. The most obvious piece of advice is to not drink copious amounts of water. Leading up to a drug test, you really don't need more than one full glass. In fact, it's most ideal to provide your sample first thing in the morning before you've gone to the bathroom for the first time, so you're using the urine that was sitting in your bladder all night. But if you just can't hold it that long and this option really isn't feasible, then you should aim to empty your bladder a couple of hours before providing a specimen, taking care not to drink too much water in the hours before your test. Additionally, you should avoid all diuretics until after you've finished providing a urine sample. Diuretics are any substances that promote urination. They don't only come in the form of over-the-counter pills. Other diuretics that you may not be aware of also include green tea, black tea, parsley, and coffee — so you might want to hold off on your daily Starbucks run until later in the day. It's important to remember that you don't need to be totally dehydrated and dying of thirst to avoid providing diluted urine. You can still drink water. Just limit it to only the amount you need to remain hydrated enough before your test. Employee drug testing can get complicated sometimes, but we're here to make it easy.
