Myths and Legends Revealed: Part 6
Bleach, cannot help you pass your drug test, no matter which way it is you try to use it. You will never successfully pass a drug test when Bleach is the method you employ. Despite immense amounts of research on this particularly nasty myth surrounding drug testing, we have yet to find a singular explanation for why someone would ever believe that bleach could help them pass a drug test at any point in time.
We do not know how this rumor legend began. We do not know how it spread so far. We do know this however, the original rumor was that you were supposed to add a few drops of bleach directly to your urine sample in order to cleanse it from any present toxins. Somehow from this belief – which is not at all true by the way; adding bleach directly to your urine sample will not cleanse it like it would your laundry. It will however change the pH levels of the sample, change the temperature, and change the color, making it obvious to the lab that you’re purposefully trying to tamper with the sample – some people became convinced that you needed not to add it directly to the sample, but to yourself, as in drinking the bleach and ingesting it directly.
Not only is that a very bad idea as it’s extremely harmful to your internal system, but by the time any amount of bleach small enough to NOT kill you or harm you in any way gets to the urinary tract it would have been nullified by your stomach acids. Please don’t try to drink the bleach in order to pass your urine drug test. This is just a bad idea in so many ways.
