  Body fluid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bodily fluids are fluids, which are generally excreted or secreted from the human body.
Bodily fluids are regarded with varying levels of disgust among Western cultures, as well as many Middle Eastern cultures; the perception is that bodily fluids are unclean (which is not strictly true as urine is in most cases completely sterile until it exits the body).
Attitudes concerning bodily fluids aside, there is a long human history of their use in religion, medicine, art, sex, and folklore.

 Goedicke, Patricia: Precious Bodily Fluids   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In this poignant poetic rendition of images presented to the narrator as she watches one of her body fluids ooze into an external receptacle, the reader is treated to a vivid array of symbols brought to the poet's imagination.
The fluid is lymph, collected into a "little plastic pouch / hung on my side like a monkey." The poem is made up of run-on three line stanzas, flowing like the fluid--from color images, to visions of the sea, to associations with the aroma of fruit.
In the piece, the poet moves from the practical, everyday, meaning of wearing a foreign apparatus to collect the escaping essence of one's corporeal makeup, to sensory images of these fluids, to a final conclusion that, once external to the body, the life-sustaining liquids loose all their import.

The kidneys are essential for regulating the volume and composition of bodily fluids.
An important concept is that regulation of osmolarity must be integrated with regulation of volume, because changes in water volume alone have diluting or concentrating effects on the bodily fluids.
