    It’s drinking other people that’s the real problem. Although it’s disgusting your waste only contains pathogens you already possess.

      You can absolutely get sick from ingesting your own waste. There’s plenty of flora and pathogens that exist and live in your gut that can cause problems if you ingest it orally.

      After all we all have e coli and breakouts do still happen.
