The bladder is where urine is stored to be released from the body. It can hold between one half to two cups of urine before it needs to be emptied. Everyday about two to five cups of urine pass through the bladder. The more water you drink, the more urine is produced. If it is hot outside and you produce a lot of sweat, you will not make as much urine. |

About 96% of urine is water. It
also contains some waste salts and a substance
called urea. Urea is made during the breakdown of
proteins in your liver. Urea may also leave your
body in sweat. If urea builds up in your body, it
is a sign that your kidneys are not working
properly. Kidney failure can be fatal if it is not
treated quickly.
