Drinking Your Own Urine

A British couple has spoiled breakfast-time for millions of viewers earlier this week when they drank their own urine on ITV's This Morning show.

Rebecca (Bex) Long and John Dixon, who have been together for two years, appeared on the morning show to extoll the "health benefits" of drinking your own wee.

According to a Daily Mail report, the couple believes their urine to be as potent as an "energy drink".

They also believe it to have many healing properties: from ridding Bex of her depression to brightening their eyes and skin and even healing cuts and burns when dabbed with the special "home-made" liquid.

John first started drinking his own pee when he was 17, whereas Bex started the unusual habit two years ago, when she met John.

"For the first couple of weeks of doing it you feel extremely happy and extremely bouncy," Mirror online quotes her as saying.

The couple then stunned show hosts Holly Willoughby and Dermot O'Leary, and millions of viewers, by each downing a glass of their urine live on air.
