The Characterization of Feces and Urine: A Review of the Literature to Inform Advanced Treatment Technology
TL;DR: Variation in the volume and composition of urine is caused by differences in physical exertion, environmental conditions, as well as water, salt, and high protein intakes, which should always be considered if the generation rate, physical, and chemical composition of feces and urine is to be accurately predicted.

Health effects of vegetables and fruit: assessing mechanisms of action in human experimental studies
TL;DR: Experimental dietary studies in humans showed the capacity of vegetables and fruit and their constituents to modulate some of these potential disease-preventive mechanisms, including modulation of detoxification enzymes, stimulation of the immune system, and reduction of platelet aggregation.
