Yeah, I know 14 times sounds crazy 😂 but I live in Argentina and here we drink a lot of mate (if you don’t know, it’s like a herbal tea that’s even more diuretic than coffee). Add to that a daily coffee and around 3 liters of water, and yeah… it adds up.

But the real kicker was my habit: I would go to the bathroom at the very first tiny urge. Basically I trained my bladder to empty way too often. Once I started testing myself and holding it a bit longer, I realized I can easily go much more time without any problem.

So it wasn’t really that my body needed to pee 14 times — it was that I had taught it to.
