Dr. Mikhail Varshavski candidly revealed that Kristen Bell asked him if she should drink her own pee for health purposes.
The popular TikTok doctor shared that the “Veronica Mars” star messaged him about consuming the urine “because her friend was doing it” during a forthcoming episode of “The Basement Yard” podcast.

“This entire experience was predicated on my nosiness. So I went, ‘What?’ And Justine goes, ‘Do you ever do this? Do you ever, like, the first urine of the day you drink again?’”
Bell admitted that she was in disbelief and recalled how Lupe then started bringing fake pee into work to make it seem real.
The “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” star then admitted how she went to After about five weeks, Lupe finally told her co-star she was joking.
Bell recalled Varshavski telling her that ‘there were “a lot better ways to remineralize, like a multivitamin.”
After about five weeks, Lupe finally told her co-star she was joking, ensuring that the entire cast and crew knew it was a prank and were told to prevent Bell from ever drinking her urine.
