Urine Therapy
Drinking urine - an ancient therapeutic practice revisited.

By Natalie Bouaravong

Nothing compares to the satisfaction of that warm, tingly sensation from the first morning whiz. From the bladder, to the toilet and then, flush! To some people, flushing urine down the toilet is a complete waste of what could be a refreshing breakfast - one's own fountain of youth, an elixir of health and beauty.
Drinking urine is a concept that is hard for most people to swallow, but its claimed healing abilities may make this ancient practice worth a try. From canker sores to cancer, there is nothing that its advocates claim it will not cure. Urine is said to be effective against the flu, the common cold, fever, broken bones, toothaches, dry skin, psoriasis and all other skin problems. It is said to deter aging and be helpful against AIDS, cancer, allergies, animal bites, asthma, heart disease, hypertension, burns, fatigue, infertility, baldness, insomnia, gangrene, chicken pox, tuberculosis, and a countless number of other diseases and disorders.
Urine may provide energy, maintain youth, and make skin and hair beautiful. With such wondrous properties, it is amazing that science developed new medicines when a key to good health was already in the bottle, so to speak. Everyone is a walking pharmacopoeia.
The first world conference on auto-urine therapy was held in February of 1996 in Panjim, India. It drew about 600 delegates from nations around the world. The numerous applications of urine were discussed, including use in nose-, ear-, and eye-drops, as well as ingestion and external massage application.
For thousands of years, several cultures included urine therapy, also known as uropathy or urotherapy, for all manners of disease and injury. Uropathy has been recorded in Egyptian medical texts and in ancient Chinese medical documents. The Aztec civilization also used urine to heal wounds while Hindu practices noted the benefits of drinking one's own urine. Urine therapy may have been referenced in the Bible: œDrink waters from thy own cistern, flowing water from thy own well. (Proverbs 5:15).
In the ayurvedic tradition of yoga, drinking one's urine is called amaroli. Yogic techniques explain exactly how to go about drinking or applying amaroli. One of the most famous users of urine therapy was Prime Minister of India from 1977 to 1979, Morarji Desai. On the occasion of his 99th birthday in 1995, Desai attributed his longevity to drinking his morning urine on a daily basis.
Though many have been conditioned to think of urine as œdirty, quite the opposite is true. Except in the case of a urinary tract or kidney infection, urine fresh from the urethra is sterile, devoid of any pathogens. Urine is 95 percent water, with less than five percent urea, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, hormones, proteins, antibodies, and other beneficial pharmacological agents.
Contrary to popular belief, urine is actually a by-product of blood filtration and not waste filtration. Medically, it is referred to as œplasma ultrafiltrate. It is a purified derivative of the blood itself, made by the kidneys whose principal function is regulation of all the elements and their concentrations in the blood. Nutrient-filled blood passes through the liver where toxins are removed to be excreted as solid waste. Eventually, this purified blood undergoes a more extensive filtering process in the kidneys, where excess components not usable at that time by the body are collected in the form of the sterile, watery solution that is urine.
Far from being harmful, urine contains known healing agents. Clinical studies have proven that the thousands of critical body chemicals and nutrients that end up in urine reflect the individual body's functions. When re-utilized, these chemicals and nutrients act as natural vaccines, antibacterial, antiviral and anticarcinogenic agents as well as hormone balancers and allergy relievers.
For example, melatonin, present in significant amounts in urine, is a natural hormone that has already been proven to help regulate sleep. Muramyl dipeptide, another natural hormone found in urine, mirrors the calming action of serotonin. If wishing to enhance fertility, one could drink urine high in a specific hormonal content.
An important component of urine is urea, a commonly recognized antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral agent. The presence of urea in the urine results from the body's chemical balancing of the sodium chloride and water ratio. When used on a wound, urea causes an osmotic imbalance inside bacteria and fungi that utlimately kills them. Due to its effectiveness, urea is used in many topical ointments and creams sold pharmaceutically, both prescription and over-the-counter. Urea is found in a broad range of medicines used to treat inflammation and is a main ingredient in Herpigon, a medicine used to treat herpes infections. Additionally, urine can smooth and moisturize the skin. Face creams or wrinkle removers most likely contain urea or a derivative of it. According to John Armstrong's 1971 book, The Water of Life, expensive and elegant European facial soaps often contain human, cow or pig urine.
Urine therapy is also being used to treat cancer patients. The Italian surgeon Stanislau R. Burzynski, separated anti-neoplastin from human urine and showed remarkale results in the treatment of cancer,  said B.V. Khare, M.D., a physician from Mumbai, India who advocates urine therapy to his patients. Cancer cells release various antigens, some of which appear in the urine. Oral auto-urotherapy is suggested as a new treatment modality for cancer patients because it provides the intestinal lymphatic system with the many tumor antigens against which antibodies may be produced. These antibodies may infiltrate the blood stream and attack the tumor and its cells.
Another present-day application based upon the theory of uropathy is being practiced in Serono Laboratories in Italy. The labs use the urine of post-menopausal nuns to prepare the pharmaceutical extract Pergonal, in order to stimulate fertility.
Advocates claim that urine is an invaluable source of nourishment and healing that has been too controversial or not financially rewarding enough for it to be encouraged as a potent medicine. However, Dr. Khare insisted that doctors who were under my treatment showed no signs of aging and insisted that urine therapy should be invited to the general public. 
Dr. Khare further argued the medicinal use of urine therapy: After starting auto-urine therapy, a family of four have not gone to a general physician for any ailment for more than a year. My experiences runs to so many years and if I start quoting, it will fill a 200-page notebook. 
While some of the constituents of urine are being used and tested for their potential or actual therapeutic value, critics opposed to urine therapy assert that it does not necessarily mean that drinking one's urine is therapeutic. For example, If you are ingesting more vitamin C [a water soluble vitamin] than your body needs or can process, you will excrete it in your urine. It does not follow that drinking urine is a good way to get vitamin C into your body. An orange or a tablet might be preferable,  said Robert Farnsworth M.D., leading urologist at Australia's Prince of Wales and Prince Henry Hospitals.
The reason urine contains vitamins and minerals is because the body did not need them or could not use them. Certainly in small volumes, provided it is not infected with germs, there is probably no hazard in drinking [urine]. But if you started drinking significant volumes of your own urine, then essentially your recycling your own waste products - you're not excreting them permanently.  said Farnsworth.
According to skeptics, urine is not likely to be healthful or useful either for those rare occasions when one is buried beneath a building or lost at sea for days. Dr. Farnsworth concludes that hopefully, [people will] excrete it naturally and then [allow] the usual methods of getting rid of the waste product. We have a sanitary system and I think they're designed to get rid of urine.  As a daily tonic, opponents argue there are tastier and more practical ways to introduce healthful products into one's bloodstream.
Not everybody can jump right in and start drinking his own urine without negative side effects. The Chinese Association of Urine Therapy warns that common symptoms include diarrhea, itch, pain, fatigue, soreness of the shoulder, and fever. Each episode typically lasts three to seven days, but rarer incidents have reported lasting side effects for over six months. 
Urine may or may not be the golden fountain of youth. It may or may not be the elixir of good health. Often, there are broad, sweeping claims made by proponents of almost every therapeutic modality, but there is no therapy that can meet claims of 100 percent success. Despite the first impression that the Western mind often has of seeing the modern practice of urine therapy as antiquated at the least, or revolting at the most, its value need not be immediately dismissed. However, it is up to the people to decide if it is right for them.

Urine Therapy Instruction

Today marked my 38th day on Urine Therapy. I realised that my skin has become softer , smoother and radiant. Some white spots have also become smaller. In addition, age spots have become less obvious.

________________________________________

Urine therapy is simple, but remember that these instructions are not given as medical guidance, but are simply to be taken into account as general information .
• Before starting the therapy, diet and general health should be reviewed. All the three should be in a balanced condition. Chemical drugs -and poor dietary habits affect the quality of urine. Synthetic additives, preservatives, refined and denatured flours; sugars, caffeine, nicotine etc. should be avoided .
• For internal use, midstream urine is collected in a clean cup. As urine breaks down quickly outside the body, it is to be used as soon as it is collected.
• To start with, only a few drops are to be administered each day in the early morning .
• Urine can be taken with ink filler and one or two drops should be placed under the tongue. The dosage can be increased to five to ten drops twice a day over a period of three to five days.
• Diluting or boiling the urine decreases the efficacy. So these practices should be avoided.
• Urine therapy should not be taken during pregnancy and by people suffering from kidney disorders without a doctor's supervision .
• Some individuals may experience mild headache, nausea, diarrhoea, tiredness or skin rashes, which are the body's natural responses against stored toxins. These symptoms normally disappear within 24 to 36 hours.
• In most cases, frequent small doses of one to three ounces for two to three weeks will suffice. Regular users say that it assists in the maintenance of energy levels, reduction of aging and prevention of illness.
• Applying urine to the skin is an excellent treatment for many types of skin disorders such as skin rashes, eczema, psoriasis, acne, insect bites, etc. The urea in urine is excellent for cosmetic use and moisturising the skin. Fresh or old urine can be used as external application. In fact, old urine with its high ammonia content is more beneficial in many stubborn skin. diseases.
• A small cotton ball or pad is to be soaked in urine and rubbed over the affected area. This is to be discarded and another one is taken to repeat the process for five to ten minutes.

Urine Therapy

Today is my 37th day on Urine Therapy.

________________________________________
Urine therapy can be used for many skin issues. The process is the same for many conditions. People have used urine therapy to treat acne, eczema, dry scalp and hair loss and some sores.
For specific spot areas like acne or a particular problem blemish, use your finger to dip the urine from the container to the area and then massage it into the skin. Or, use a cotton ball or swab to dab the liquid from the container on to your skin.
For best results, allow the urine to dry on your skin as you massage it in. The odor should fade as it dries. You can then follow the urine therapy by using your regular lotion or makeup. If you prefer, however, you can rinse the urine off before moving on with the rest of your routine.
For larger problem areas or areas that are sore or sensitive to the touch like large acne outbreaks, eczema patches or large scars or blemishes, apply a compress. With a large urine sample, soak a small washcloth or rag in the urine, then lay the rag on the area. Leave it there for up to ten minutes, remove and rinse or dry off.
Use an extended compress for very difficult problems. Apply the urine with a cotton ball or swab until the area is very wet. Then, tape a clean, dry cloth to the area and leave for several hours.
Repeat this process twice a day and watch your progress. If you have a particularly troublesome spot, you can apply urine therapy as often as you urinate. If you are not where you can catch a full sample, try catching just a few drops with your finger for a quick application.
For all over skin care, or large problem areas, put urine in a clean spray bottle and spray it onto your skin, then let it dry there like a body mist. Or add a few drops to your regular lotion so that you put some on each time you moisturize.
A regular urine sample should begin to show results in a few days. However, if you feel that you want to try a stronger ointment you can make one. Collect a sample and store it in a dark container in a cool, dark place for between four to eight days. This sample will smell much stronger, so you may want to rinse or wash it off before continuing with the rest of your routine.
Because urine is sterile to the touch, most of the concerns about using urine as therapy come from the idea of people drinking urine. The substance urea can be dangerous if it enters the bloodstream. Doctors seem to agree that it is most likely harmless for most people, in small quantities.
Some holistic doctors think that urea has antibacterial and antifungal properties, which makes it a strong candidate for use as a skin therapy. However, Western medicine has been slow to come around to urine therapy and most of the "proof" for its effectiveness comes from anecdotal evidence.
Users should take care to avoid using urine on open sores. And as with any product put on the skin, watch for side effects. Potential side effects of using urine on the skin may include a rash.

Don't Wail Until You Become Ill

Today marked my 36th day on Urine Therapy.

________________________________
You don’t have to be unhealthy to begin imbibing your own water. In fact prudence would say ‘Don’t wait until you become ill’ – it is equally effective as a preventative as it is a curative.

Don’t wait for symptoms of disease to appear before starting urine therapy. Your body is whispering to you the whole time, telling you what is in or out of balance, but we have learned or been taught to ignore these faint whispers and when illness exhibits itself in strong symptoms your body is SHOUTING at you.

The former Prime Minister of India was a strong advocate of urine therapy and lived in good health to be 100 years old. He claimed his good health was a result of his drinking and massaging with urine every day and he certainly didn’t appear to wrinkle with age!

Wrinkles start appearing from an early age even though you might not be aware of it. It can start forming when you are as young as nineteen years old! There are certain things that you must religiously avoid while you are getting anti-wrinkle treatment.
There are a few simple things that you can do to help slow the process. Direct sunrays are very damaging so avoid them. Ensure that your mosturiser has AHA. AHA is alpha-hydroxy acids that contains vitamin A and extracts from natural products like sugar cane. They also have derivatives from fruits and milk. Moreover they fight against free radicals which cause great damage to your skin.
Always remember to exfoliate. It is very important to remove the dead cells to prevent accumulation. This way the moisturizer is more effective. Always use a sunscreen before stepping out of doors. In case you dont apply sunscreens then ensure that your moisturiser has a high SPF value. Wear sunglasses if you don’t want crow’s feet.
There is only a limited amount that can be done externally. You need to eat healthy to stay fit and young. Try to avoid food which is excesively spicy or fatty. You have to see that you have omega 3 and 6 and enough of fatty acids. These build skin structure so make sure that you have them in plenty. Smoke and drink as less as possible.
Exercise helps improve blood circulation and so makes your skin glow. To get a radiant look on your skin,you must exercise. You must also go through this checklist. See that you drink enough water if your urine is not colorless you know you’re not drinking as much water as you should.
In your diet make sure you have nuts and seeds, they are very good for the skin. Most importantly get plenty of sleep. You should lie straight on you back. You should use textiles or fibers that cause you the least damage skin- wise. Visit doctor regularly.
The thing that you should avoid the most is stress and anxiety. Anxiety and stress causes sleeplessness and due to this your skin appears dull and lifeless. Your skin will have a fresh look only if your body gets the rest it requires.

Drink Your Pee

Today marked my 35th day on Urine Therapy.

____________________________________


His name was Pablo Falcon, a Native American healer living in New Mexico. He was on a show called Human Urine-Elixir for Good Health? airing on the National Geographic Channel, showcasing an ancient healing tradition: the practice of drinking one’s own urine.

Yes, he drank his own urine; a cup a day, usually in the morning, catching the first stream in mid discharge.

He drank it straight, like a shot of whiskey, but sometimes sipped it like a hot toddy on a cold moonless night. It was Pablo Falcon’s preventative medicine-urine therapy, or uropathy.

I was young. That’s disgusting, I thought. Years later, I re-discovered Pablo’s delinquency, but until then I remained ignorant of my body’s golden elixir as though it was an enigma, hidden from the alchemy of health within a toxic world.
To others it’s tradition, but among a modernizing world tradition is perceived as primitive.

At The Mercy Of Sickness
Out in the world, I forgot about Pablo. I forgot about the ways of the warrior, the ways of the body, and its own powerful remedies.
I forgot about these things because I was falling apart. I was in India, and my body was aching, my head spinning, my nose divulging a sinewy greenness, my intestines constricting, my sphincter bleeding.

But I did not forget about Gandhi.
I was participating in the 75th anniversary of Mohandas K. Gandhi’s Salt March, and here I was falling apart, literally bleeding out of multiple orifices.
And what could I do? Whine? Complain? Go to a hospital because I wasn’t feeling well? The Peace Walk wasn’t about me, or about any of the other walkers from nine different nations. The Peace Walk was for those of India, and a universal Peace for Mother Earth and Her inhabitants.

A young Japanese living in Nepal came up to me. He was Morita and he saw through to my pain. The man I hardly knew handed me a plastic cup as we took lunch. “Take this,” he said in a hush. Around us others slept. “Go pee, and drink as much of it as you can.”

I was stunned. I had forgotten Pablo Falcon. I had forgotten my own body and its power. At that time, I was only cursing it. “What?”
“You want to get better?” Morita asked.
I nodded.

“Then pee and drink.”
The First World Conference
In 1996, a group of urine therapists put on the First World Conference of Urine Therapy.

Held in India, the conference on the art of drinking urine brought together doctors, scientists, practitioners and believers into one room to exalt the benefits, seek out the contradictions, and bring awareness, drive and inspiration to a deepened scientific study of this clandestine cure.

They read testimonials of miraculous recoveries. They reviewed the studies of urine and its components. They compared their own experiences, treatments and applications. They found no contradictions.

Found in the ancient Vedic culture of Hinduism, urine therapy holds another name, Shivambu Kalpa Vidhi, or The Waters of Shiva. In the five thousand year-old Damar Tantra text, the writings recall Shiva as he unleashes his secrets of a healthy mind, body and soul to his wife, Parvati.

The text, or sutra, is one of the oldest known documents on healing, one that directly encompasses one’s own body-the ailment and the cure as one. It claims no association with external remedies, but solely describes the power and wisdom of the body under healthy eating habits.

It was Mahatma Gandhi who spoke:
The human body is the best portrayal of the universe in miniature. Whatever does not exist in the human body cannot be found in the universe, and whatever exists in the universe can be found in the human body.
Not only does the Vedic culture find complete truth within one’s own being, but ancient medical scriptures of the Egyptians, Chinese, Aztecs and Christians hint at this secret. In Proverbs 5:15 of the Old Testament, it is He who lets it be known: Drink water from thy own cistern, and the streams of thy own well.
The Workings Of The Body
What comes to mind is shit and piss, two ways of excreting toxins from the body.
The former-yes.
The latter-no.
When it comes to the process of making urine, there is one large misunderstood nomenclature: Urine is dirty. It picks up all your body’s dirty liquids and whizzes them into a smelly bowl. It’s crap. But what you forgot about is this baroque process.
We eat. We drink. We ingest and we digest. Solid matter is sent into the stomach, churned, macerated and spit out from the intestinal tracks after absorbing the good, the bad and the ugly. With liquids, most, if not all, are absorbed into the bloodstream.
From there they flow around, swimming like Chinese fighting fish. Through the limbs, the core, from the spine into the skull, within the tongue and around-the substances of our blood are everywhere before entering its first cleansing phase. This would be the liver.
With health, all things operate accordingly; on time, in rhythm. As the blood enters the liver it becomes the stone within the refinery. The liver is the detoxifier of our blood, removing poisonous products, secreting them or storing waste in the gall bladder, which ends up as bile.
From here, the blood flows to the kidneys. Coen van der Kroon, in his urine therapy guide Golden Fountain, describes how “they remove all superfluous vital substances from the blood, and filter out a surplus of water.”
These leftovers are the diamonds emerging from the refinement. They are the matter that form urine-simply the leftovers from the body’s water and nutrients. And a healthy diet is key.
A Cure For Life’s Ills?
Despite varying ranges of lifestyles, urine at best is an elixir; it is the water of life.
In J.W. Armstrong’s The Water of Life, homeopath and naturopath Ellis Barker quotes that “our body distills the most wonderful medicines and provides the most perfect serums and antibodies.” In fact, the list of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids and hormones runs long.
One of these powerful byproducts is urea; an organic compound of carbamide containing carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen.
With this knowledge, pharmaceuticals have discreetly capitalized on urine’s power, incorporating urine in anti-cancer prescriptions as well as blood-clot dissolvers, ointments, hand creams, lotions and soaps.
Your very own urine is known to have a significant effect on the following diseases:
Adrenal failure, AIDS/HIV, allergies, cancer, candida, colds & flu symptoms, colitis, dandruff, diabetes, diarrhea, ear & eye troubles, eczema, gangrene, gout, heart disease, hepatitis, herpes, hyperactivity, jaundice, lupus, mononucleosis, multiple sclerosis, pancreatic insufficiency, psoriasis, rashes, rheumatism, rheumatoid arthritis, sciatica, warts and more.
Research remains limited, and the guesses as to why are as many as urine’s benefits. If humankind began sipping, fasting, massaging, gargling, douching, eye and ear-dropping, sniffing, injecting, compressing, rubbing, bathing, shampooing and giving oneself an enema all with one’s own urine, doctors would become unneccesary.
The pharmaceutical industry would collapse. Chemicals would be cleansed from peoples’ bodies. Man & woman would be healthy, strong and immune. And the billions of dollars going toward the chemical-dependent world could be spent on more worthwhile causes – like education.
A holy temple. An elixir. The cause and effect in one. The ailment and medicament together.
Your body’s urine is anything but wasteful. It is the gift, sanctified through the internal processes and given to you once more for complete health, detoxification and rejuvenation.

Drinking Urine

Today marked my 34th day on Urine Therapy.



________________________________________

Drinking:
Morning urine is best. Take the middle stream. You can start with a few drops, building up to one glass a day. Good as a tonic, as a preventive and in minor illnesses.

Fasting:
Drink all the urine you pass, except for the evenings�otherwise you won�t get any sleep. You can also take some extra water. The urine will quickly change its taste into almost neutral. Fasting on urine and water cleanses the blood. Toxins are removed through liver, skin and exhalation.

Gargle:
Gargling with urine works wonders when having a throat-ache. Also good for toothache and generally when having a cold.

Enemas:
Urine enemas work very well in cleansing the colon and in providing a direct immune stimulant.

Vaginal douche:
Helpful in cases such as yeast problems, white discharge, etc.

Ear and eye drops:
For ear infections, conjunctivitis, glaucoma. For the eyes, dilute the urine with some water.

Sniffing urine/Neti:
Sinusitis and other nose problems. Very good preventive for colds and to clean the subtlechannels in the head.

External application
Massaging/rubbing: You can use either fresh or old urine. Old urine (4 to 8 days) is generally more effective, but it has a pungent odour. Massaging the whole body is an important complementary treatment when fasting. It nourishes the body through the skin and helps against increased heartbeat.

You can leave the urine on or wash it off after an hour or so, just with water or with a mild, natural soap. Fresh urine as an after-shave gives you a beautiful soft skin. It is also helpful in all kinds of skin problems such as itching, sunburns, eczema, psoriasis and acne.

Gentle rubbing of urine into acupressure points (for example, on the ears) is useful when reactions are otherwise too strong accompanied by heavy allergic reaction.

Foot baths: Any skin and nail problems of the feet (athlete�s foot and ringworm)

Compress: When rubbing is not appropriate, this is another way of applying urine on the skin.

Hair and scalp massage: Renders the hair soft and clean. Sometimes stimulates new hair growth.

Third World Conference on Urine Therapy

The world's urine researchers and users met again for the 3rd time to discuss urine therapy.

The most recent world conference about Urine therapy and holistic healing was held in April/May 2003 in Belo Horizonte Brazil with the excellent organization of Dr Fatima Pimenta and her team.

Scientists, practitioners and survivors of so-called "incurable" diseases from 40 countries exchanged their knowledge about healing and preventing health problems. As one can imagine the 740 people from all over the world, with all their different backgrounds and cultures, had a lot of information to share. More scientists and representatives from Institutes and universities attended this 3rd World Conference than at the other world conferences in India (1996) and Germany (1999). In more than 50 lectures, delegates reported on urine therapy from all perspectives:
medicinal findings and uses
political and financial implications
religious and spiritual views
However, there was not much new about the basic use of urine as medicine. The "super juice" against all diseases is for people who know about it and willing to end needless suffering.

Every batch of urine is unique to each person, certainly nothing changed there: but due to the world wide research and especially from countries where expensive medications are for most people unaffordable or not available at all, reports about successful and "free of charge" healing were very popular.

The latest news - old knowledge. Urine is the perfect medicine!
Used for thousands of years, urine therapy is being rediscovered and proves repeatedly to be the perfect medicine it has always been. Even modern diseases like AIDS and plagues can be successfully treated with the water from one's own cistern. The good (old) news is spreading by word of mouth (more as a secret) but also by big events like the World Conference of Urine Therapy.

The world's big names in Urine Therapy, like Coen van der Kroon (author of the book "The Golden Fountain), Dr. Schaller (France), Dr Atom Inoue (Columbia), Dr. Sonia Rodridgues (Mexico), Dr. Kang Kook Hee (South Korea and organiser for the next World Conference), Dr John Wynhausen (USA), Dr. Lutz Riedel (Germany), Dr Carmen de la Concepcion (Cuba), Dr Ryosuke (Japan), to mention only a few, gathered to give evidence about their clinical work with patients and to help suffering people understand that urine is not a toxic waste but a wide spectrum healing agent, not matched by any other medication.

Confirmations:

Urine is a Miraculous Medicine

It has been scientifically confirmed that urine, ingested or externally applied, fights infections, allergies and skin disorders. Some believe Auto Urine Therapy (AUT) supports the immune system and supports the healing of illnesses that are considered "incurable.

Cancer - AIDS - TB

Cancer, one of the main killers with long periods of suffering, is on the "benefit list" of AUT, with many reported cases and scientific studies. As also is AIDS, the disease of modern times, with no cure. There are too many reports of successful treatment, especially in Africa, to be ignored. Tuberculosis, a disease that was once successfully treated with antibiotics, but now due to overuse of antibiotics has developed resistant strains, is again a killer disease with approximately 3 million people dying each year.

Chronic diseases

If one thinks about the many cases of chronic diseases including allergies, one wonders why people run every few weeks to a doctor, consume masses of medication and then suffer from the negative side effects sooner or later. They believe in the chemical and expensive medications. They also believe that urine is a toxic waste. The World Conference demonstrated again that urine is the best all-round medicine. In our times of "mass-education" one wonders when people will become interested in the most simple, and at the same time, most effective medicine.

Dr. Nakao

It was sad to hear that Dr. Nakao from Japan died a few months ago. Since I met him in India (first World Conference in India - 1996), I have promoted his method, because it made so much sense to me. I also published his paper in my first edition of my book "Urine the Holy Water". In the 7 years since my book "Urine the Holy Water" was published, I only have positive results from Dr. Nakao's method. As we learned at the 3rd World Conference his method is now used worldwide and there is not one reported case of negative side effects.

Dr Ryoichi Nakao M.D. explains his views on the mechanism of auto-urine therapy as follows:

First of all, in order to examine this mechanism, we have to consider that the efficacy of urine therapy does not show it to be a medicine. Urine is an information source about the disease in the body or, in other words, it is a copy of the changes occurring in the body.

Due to the following reasons, I believe that when this information in the urine passes through the throat it is analysed by sensors in the throat, and that the human immune system can then be activated to cure the disease. That is to say, signals are given by the brain which may activate the necessary functions for curing the ailment.

(1). Experiments were conducted and it was found that when the urine was induced into the stomach using a catheter, bypassing the throat for a period of one month, no efficacy was observed.

(2). The fact that cancer occurs in the bladder, urinary tract and kidneys proves that the presence of urine inside the body does not have any direct effect on carcinogenic cells. But when the same urine is taken orally and passes through the throat, a decrease in carcinogenic cell growth or the disappearance of cancer has been observed in cancer patients.

(3). Even if urine is not ingested but only gargled, the effects were found to be the same as when it was ingested.

(4). If gargling with water was done just after ingestion of urine no efficacy was observed.

(5). Interferon, one of many bio-active substances found in urine presents a situation analogous to that of auto-urine therapy in that only minute quantities taken orally are necessary to provide the brain with the information it needs to heal the body. In clinical trials, only 100 IU or 1/100,000 of the million international units of interferon given orally had the same effects as 10 million units administered by injections. (Hayashibara Biochemical Labs., Inc Okayama, Japan and Dr Cummins of Amarillo Cell Culture, Amarillo Texas).

Because of the above findings, it can be assumed that sensor cells which can perceive extremely minute changes in the body, could control them if stimulated by the right information from urine. Such cells are found in the oral cavity and throat said Dr Ryoichi Nakao.

Dr Nakao's theory for the stimulation of cytokine production explains further that urine is the source of information for a given disease. When it is placed in the throat, the sensor cells detect this information, passing it to the brain. In its turn, the brain triggers the cytokine production gland which provides regulation for the immune system. From the brain, interleukin X, together with other enzymes, cause cytokines to be produced and thus effect a recovery from illness. Propolis, a substance extracted from honeycombs has been known since ancient times to have anti-bacterial and anti-tumorial effects. Urine mixed with propolis, enhances its efficacy against cancer, hepatitis and other diseases according to research in Japan. (Dr Ryoichi Nakao).

Immune system regulating factors were originally known as interleukin (IL). Later, interleukins, colony stimulating factors, interferon and other similar substances were generally called cytokines since they are secreted by cells, and affect other cells in one way or the other. (Dr Ryoichi Nakao).

The following is from my book "Urine The Holy Water"

The best method to use urine therapy: Drops under the tongue.

This is the application many started with after reading my book, Water Medicine. It is a very easy way in regard to finding the right dosage, using the urine absolutely fresh several times a day and having the best results.

Urine drops are applied under the tongue and instead of drinking a larger quantity; one uses only 1 to 20 drops placed with an eyedropper under the tongue.

We really don't know exactly why this application works with such a small dosage. It is used in a similar way to homoeopathic medicine and kept as long as possible in the mouth.

An explanation as to why the urine drop application works so well was presented by Dr Ryoichi Nakao M.D., Chairman of the M.C.L Institute of Japan in his speech to the first World Conference on Urine Therapy: 'Although auto-urine therapy has been known and practised for more than 4,000 years it is still believed that among the components in urine there is a miracle cure for all ailments. However, the efficacies of urine therapy do not indicate it to be an actual medicine. Instead, in terms of immunology, urine is an information source about the disease in the body, and when this information passes through the throat, it is analysed and the immune system is activated to produce the right biological response modifiers in the body to cure the disease.'

And there are other interesting reports about small dosages of substances kept under the tongue for protection. Workers in Japanese paint plants are traditionally successful in preventing long-term health damage from the chemicals they work with by keeping a bit of the paint (dried flakes of paint) under their tongue.

Urine drops are taken from the mid-stream morning urine with an eyedropper under the tongue.

First day ~ 1-5 drops; second day ~ 5-10 drops and on the third day 5-10 drops but twice a day - first thing in the morning and just before bedtime.

This dosage can be maintained until the particular complaint is solved. The dosage may also be increased as needed. Researchers in Scotland have made a further discovery about the correct dosage of urine drops for each individual. Fresh urine is collected between meals and slowly placed under the tongue with an eyedropper. The sensation of taste and temperature noticed with the first few drops suddenly cannot be detected by the patient any more after a certain number of drops that is individual to the patient. The researchers call this phenomenon of diminishing taste, the neutralising dose. With this immune reaction everyone can find out his or her own individual doses at any time.

In my book, Water Medicine, the urine drop method is mentioned and most of the feedback has been about positive treatment of illnesses using this method such as 'I took five drops under my tongue each day, morning and night, for the first two days, no change, but then on the third day I had no asthma - not a bit'. Urine should be taken joyfully and with a pleasant mind and with faith, at least in the therapy, which improves the healing chances dramatically. Your mind is much more powerful than you think.

Scientific research

Scientists from all corners of the world presented their findings on urine applications, not only "your own best medicine", but also the use of urine from animals against plant, animal and human diseases. For example lecturer Prof. Mohamed O'Hay from Sudan spoke about the uses of camels, goats and human urine for some types of bacteria and viruses in plants. Interesting was to me that there is a big difference in the results - not only comparing the different urine sources but also between male and female urine of the same species.

I spoke about Ionised urine

There are two opinions about urine therapy, as all promoters, practitioners and researchers in this field know. There are the ones who say urine is "Your Own Perfect Medicine" and the others who say, "Urine is toxic waste". The second group is the bigger group; the first group is the better educated one. As an author of a book about Urine Therapy, I belong to the first group.

Urine contains minerals, amino acids, enzymes, hormones and antidotes specific and essential to us at that moment. However, not all ingredients are beneficial in a recycling process as in Urine therapy. I have some reservation in regard to the recycling of the acid forming minerals in urine like phosphorus, sulphur and chlorine. Most allopathic drugs are also acid forming minerals.

Ionisation of urine can be of benefit as this process separates the acid forming minerals and the alkaline forming minerals. The recycling of the alkaline forming beneficial ingredients of urine for internal use, and the acid forming minerals for external use not only makes a lot of sense, but also gives better results.


A very small ioniser for only a few ml of liquid

This ioniser is powered by a solar panel
The electrodes are Iridium coated Titanium, under low voltage
Ionisers can be made for any purpose and size
The most common is the Water Ioniser, to produce ionised alkaline water
For further reading in regard to pH, the book "Youthing" is recommended.

"Dead" people don't lie

There is a saying that dead people do not lie. It was overwhelming to see so many people that had been "given up" by the medical profession come from all corners of the globe to tell their personal story and this at their own expense. They were very much alive and this well after the maximum lifetime given to them by specialists! One can claim that urine is a miracle medicine, since there must be a miracle involved, when there was "scientific proof" for a very short life expectancy and the person lives for many more years.

They "made it" with the help of the body's own super juice - urine. They not only survived, they have taken their health in their own hands. They enjoy now every day of their life, conscious that every day is a special gift. And with it, they are happier than others who did not go through the same difficulties and who take every day for granted.Many put such case studies down as wrong diagnoses, as it was in one case I know. However, the specialist had no other answer, when he was given the confirming diagnosis of another specialist!

But have others, who did not make it, used the same treatments as the survivors. Did they believe in the scientific judgment of a lifespan of several month or years or did they trust that there are other factors in healing not acknowledged by modern medicine and scientific proof?

The Doctor's own case of cancer healing

One of these testimonials was given at the beginning of the conference from the very popular Dr Sonia Rodrigues from Mexico. After she talked about holistic healing and the social outreach of urine therapy she shared her own detailed successful fight against cancer with the full conference. She finished her talk with a comment that other people with cancer lost their hair but she got her hair back and she lifted her beautiful long, full hair with her hand. Certainly, she got a very big applause.

Going to die

A woman in the thirties had a special problem. She fought her cancer for many years. After she was introduced to urine therapy and used the "perfect medicine" in addition to the other (natural) treatments, her suffering ended and she "got rid" of her cancer - she won the battle BUT another battle started. She did not know what to do with her life, which was given up already and she had to start from scratch to find an occupation or work to financially support herself. The time when government health funds paid for hospital "holidays" was over. She had her life back but had to get used to it. What a strange feeling!

Full blown AIDS healed!

I was given the following letter.

NOTE: The views expressed in this letter are those of the writer only and while we do not automatically endorse these opinions, we present the letter for the completeness of the topic's analysis in this article.

"I'm a 50-year-old woman who was diagnosed with H.I.V. 10 years ago. About 6 months after that, I started taking medication. I had my good days and my bad days. I felt really good about 4 years ago when I started taking crixivan. I took that for about 2 years, then it stopped working. Two years ago I was a mess. I had full-blown Aids and lots of people thought my time was up. I felt and looked really bad. I have a good friend who is going to school to become a doctor. He told me about urine therapy. When he first told me, I didn't listen. Then he talked to me about it again about 5 months ago. He had some books with him and I read parts of them. Well, since that time, I've been drinking 1/3-cup everyday.

Last week my doctor told me that my Aids is undetectable. I truly believe it's from the urine. I've been taking medicine almost 10 years. Nothing like this has ever even been close to happening. My friend's been telling people about urine therapy for a long time. He's been doing it himself a long time. He never has a cold and never has ever been sick a day in his life. It kills cancer cells. I had breast cancer a few years ago and underwent a mastectomy. If I knew about urine therapy sooner, I'd bet I never would have had that surgery. Now I'm not worried that the cancer will come back. Doctors don't want people to know about this because they would be out of business. It's good for everything. I used to get cold sores in my mouth every other week or so. Since I've been practicing the urine therapy, I haven't gotten any sores. I truly believe that this is the greatest discovery around. It's a miracle drug.

I know it sounds gross (drinking urine), but if you want to live, recommend it strongly. No one listened to me at first, they thought I was crazy. But now all my friends are doing it. It's really a small price to pay if you want to live. I used to take antidepressants. I don't need them now; the urine fixed the part of my brain that was making me depressed. If you have asthma, it cures that too! It cures just about everything. I'm so glad I found out.

Translation of part of Dr Lutz Riedel's lecture:

Treatment of allergic illnesses in general medicine

Warm-hearted thanks to the initiators of this conference and to all the helpers and organizers involved. It gives me much pleasure to be here in your fascinating country and give a lecture about biological medicine.

My thesis about mites came about because of the increasing number of people who become sick with allergies.

With their struggles against allergic bronchial asthma, chronic allergic rhinitis, allergic conjuctivitis and dematitis, I hoped to decode the causes and give help to these sufferers.

Thanks to modern drugs, a treatment is possible in acute cases. But who of us wish to take Cortisonne and other chemical remedies, with all their undesirable side effects, for many years?

Swelling of the eye and nasal mucous membranes, as well as difficulties in breathing cause seasonal or permanent troubles.

In my studies of house dust mite, I became aware of the great importance of these tiny creatures in their interaction with all plants, animals and people. They are as necessary as bacteria, fungi, earthworms and every other species.

Regardless of what the allergenic substance (whether flower pollen, house dust or other), a person already under stress will be more likely to react to the allergenic substance.

Every day we are in touch with various substances in injections, food, cosmetics and medicines. Atopics (people whose blood and mucous membranes are sensitive) react to the variety of allergens with over-reactions. Up to 20% of the inhabitants in my country are affected.

The illnesses specified above can break out gradually or acutely and abruptly. In some cases, just minute amounts of flower pollen, mite dust or animal dander are the last drop that makes our "immune pot" overflow.

We can't think mites and pollen away or eliminate them chemically, because they belong to our life on earth like the bacteria at and in our body.

The auto-urine therapy is a biological kind of therapy which is free and applicable everywhere, and has a lasting effect -without any side effects.

The holistic therapy - balanced diet and auto-urine therapy - could be of great benefit to both children and adults who have suffered for years.

Children prefer drinking every morning the small quantity of urine as a therapeutic dose or they receive fresh auto-urine as an injection like adults once a week - first 1ml, and a further 0.5ml given subcutaneous. I inject twice a week during the pollen season.

Concerning seasonal flower or grass allergies, the patients are ordered to start the urine therapy two or three weeks before they have the first contact with the allergens. In the following years often only a few injections are necessary for the improvement of the troubles.

Auto-urine therapy in combination with the necessary change of diet can eliminate the problem in children and adults completely. Thank you for your attention!

The treatment of menopausal troubles with AUT

The ability to reproduce is given to all living beings for preservation of their species for a certain period after becoming physical mature. From the age of 12 girls in general are capable of childbearing. Over the next 30 years about 400 fertilizable ova can develop in both ovaries. Every woman's hormone level is co-ordinated highly sensitively. Egg production slows from the age of about 45. That means the supply of oestrogens and progesterone is less. If the oestrogen level sinks below a minimal level, the last period will begin.

The inter-relation of all hormone-producing glands has to change according to this new hormonal situation. The menopause begins and the following problems may also.

About 70% of all women suffer from:

hot flushes
sweats
exhaustion
depression
dry mucous membranes
nervousness
and increasing irritability during this stage of life
There are a lot of possible treatments.

If hormone treatments are rejected or common remedies are ineffective, the affected women will look for an alternative.

This is the auto-urine therapy because it has all the current hormones which the person needs at that particular time.

The recycling of the hormone-containing urine into the body causes a reaction of the organism to the current situation.

Use of urine therapy as hormone recycling:

1. drink half a glass of morning urine every morning. If necessary this can be mixed with tea or fruit juice.
2. or subcutaneous injection of 1ml auto-urine once a week, for four to six weeks.

The troubles decrease by repeated injections. After a short time of treatment the woman will be without any trouble for several months or even longer. If the sweats occur again, two or three more treatments will be enough in most cases.

Most of the women prefer the injection therapy.

Why can't any gynaecologist use this treatment?" is the question which is often asked. Most of the doctors don't use side-effect-free, highly effective therapy because of ignorance, disgust and the trained belief in pharmaceutical preparations.

Auto-Urine-Therapy of skin and bone wounds

Children and adults with various skin injuries, e.g., sunburn, grazes, stab wounds, incised wounds, injuries caused by machines and foreign bodies, bone injuries and joint injuries come to the family doctor.

I have given disinfecting and antibiotic remedies for many years. Expensive medicines have been necessary for long-term treatments in hospitals or in home care.

I see excellent wound healing by using auto-urine treatment which is always available. Wound healing with urine therapy is highly successful - from children's and teenager's grazes to complicated ankle joint fractures. I start biological therapy with Hirudo medicinalis (leeches used for medicinal purposes) in case of substantial swelling and pain after finger and hand injuries. The swelling caused by the injury subsides quickly and pain is reduced.

Some examples:

Amputation avoided with urine Therapy

A farmer's wife squashed the middle joint of her index finger in a bone mill. The skin was lacerated, the joint was open. During the emergency surgery, an amputation was planned for later. Next day she had severe pain and swelling of the whole hand. The swelling went down quickly and the pain was reduced by using medicinal leeches.

The ointment application was replaced with urine. The urine soaked dressing was changed daily, so the change of dressing was nearly painless because the dressing didn't become clotted or didn't adhere to the wound. The joint capsule was healing gradually and later the skin wound. The anti-inflammatory effect of the urine was amazing. The index finger could be kept.

Infected wounds and bones healed quickly with Urine

The injuries of the thumbs and index fingers of two craftsmen caused by a circular saw and plane machines were healing without any problems. Daily finger baths with urine cleaned the infected, partly necrotic wounds with bone healing fast and accurate.

I saw an impressive bone healing with an 80 years old diabetic. The left leg was amputated three times within a short time. The bone broke through the skin above the knee stump. The bone and soft parts were infected and covered with pus. Antibiotics and ointments didn't bring any healing. The patient suffered from continuous pain and needed his fourth operation. The patient's daughter asked me for an alternative treatment with fly larvae.

These "microsurgeons" cleaned the festering wound within three days. Later we treated the wound daily with urine-soaked pads.

New bone skin developed constantly in the wound and slowly covered the end of the bone and the wound closed. Because of the old man's incontinence, the daughter used her self urine. In addition I mention that at the end of the bed there was a big birdcage. The standard of hygiene did not compare at all with hospital hygiene.

I highly recommended the use of urine therapy to all those in the nursing and medical profession and to all suffering people everywhere.

Plant Urine

New to most delegates at the World Conference was the lecture by Juta Stepanovs about using "Plant Urine" to balance emotional problems.

Plant Urine is the water that the plant, by its root system, filters and lifts from great depths. No external water sources or artificially processed water is used. This ensures the water contains no unfavourable memories of artificial processing. This method to produce the new generation of flower essences is called the Stepanovs method, after Juta Stepanovs, who created this new generation of Flower Remedies.

Because the plant remains wholly intact as the remedy is made, it carries the energy of wholeness, creates healing for the whole person-in mind, body and spirit.

Traditionally flower essences were made with parts from cut flowers or other parts of plant soaked in water and solarised.

However, the newly discovered Stepanovs Method extracts the essence from the live plant itself. The plant is then left unharmed to continue its growth in nature, fully intact. This has a beneficial impact on the plant, the environment, and improves the strength and healing quality of flower essence.

For further reading, the book "Love Remedies - The Stepanovs Method" is recommended.

IF YOU DON'T TRY, YOU WON'T KNOW

Today marked my 30th day on Urine Therapy.

Urine has been used successfully for hair loss, cuts, bruises, digestive problems, eye or ear problems, headaches, migraine, sinus problems, allergies, dandruff, inhibition of blood clots (thus possibly avoiding strokes - safer than aspirin), thrush, it can be used as a skin cream and will effectively help fight wrinkles (the best facial cream or after shave I know), asthma, bronchitis, cough, rheumatism, arthritis, gout, warts, constipation, diarrhoea, diverticulitis, haemorrhoids, kidney stones, liver problems, sciatica, enlarged prostate, menstrual problems, varicose veins, burns, sun strokes, herpes, insect bites, jellyfish stings, scars, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, hypertension, mumps.. in fact I have successfully used urine with most health problems.

Urine has been used for centuries and often has been described as the World oldest Medicine. Many doctors have spoken favourably about it:

"Of interest to us is the use of urine in primitive medicine, for there is scarcely a disease that has not been treated with it, either by external application or internal administration" Dr H Smith, Journal of American Medical Association - July 1954

This remedy has been documented some 5,000 ago in the Indian "Darmar Tantra" where it was named "the water of Shiva". It was so successful at treating many conditions that it found its way in Ayurvedic medicine.

The former Prime minister of Indian Mr. Moraji Desai saw it as the perfect solution for his nation's health problems and publicly encouraged his people to use it. He himself used it and lived to the ripe old age of 99.

Urine was mentioned in England in 1693 in the book "Salmon's English Physician, or the Druggist's Shop Open'd" by Dr Salmon.

French, Americans, Chinese and most countries around the world have recognised its healing properties but still it is not widely recognised.

Let me answer the most commonly expressed objections to urino-therapy

Urine is full of Germs or Viruses

For approximately 15 minutes after urination your urine is completely sterile, non-toxic available any time day and night. No viruses, germs or bacteria are present and you can even use it to clean open wounds.

Urine smells

Urine does not smell when properly massaged into the body as it will be completely absorbed by the skin. It is true that if left outside, urine will smell after a while as the uric acid changes into ammonia.

Urine tastes bad

I would agree with you there if you are a meat or dairy food eater. The putrefying flesh of the animal food you have eaten will transport into the urine and it is to be expected that the taste of urine will reflect this. However, for those of you who do not eat animal food and are on a good diet, you will find that your urine taste a bit like water. Sometimes a little saltier depending on what you eat. Garlic and Asparagus will make your urine smell and tast bad.

Urine is a waste product

Your urine is the result of the filtration of your blood by the kidneys. If you urine is of bad quality, this means that your blood is also of bad quality. In which case, you should seriously start thinking about changing your diet and lifestyle.

Urine is composed of 95 per cent water, two-and-a-half per cent urea and two-and-a-half per cent mixture of what is in excess in the blood. So, if you have too much vitamin C in the blood, the excess will go in the urine, too much enzyme, too much hormones, too much antibodies etc. all will go in the urine.

If your diet is good and your blood is of good quality, then your urine will contain whatever surplus your body does not need at present. Many nutrients such as:

hormones (aldosterone, androgens, androsterone, estradiol, estriol, estrone etc..) Many minerals such as magnesium, manganese, iron, calcium, zinc, Inositol, glycine, iodine, alanine, ascorbic acid, biotin, cystine, dopamine, folic acid, potassium can also be found, Vitamin B6, B12, Enzymes, co enzymes and many more essential ingredients are contained in your urine.

What is good in the toxins you pee. The Homeopatic effect of urine

In homeopathy, a patient is given a small dose of a poison that would cause similar symptoms to the ones he is suffering from. The body will recognise the poison and react against them and fights the disease.

We have the same process with urine. By re-ingesting a minute dose of your own poison, you are going to force the body to fight against something it does not like. We can therefore see that even if some toxin are present in your urine, you will still benefit.

How to use Urine?

Drinking: The first urine in the morning is the most potent. Your body has had a chance to regenerate itself whilst you were asleep and excrete all the surplus it does not need for the time being. This first urine should be collected mid-stream (the first few seconds will clear the tubes and the last few seconds may bring up deposits from the bottom of the bladder). Drink it immediately whilst still sterile. Do not wait for it to cool down.

Massage: Fantastic for all skin conditions. Massage it into the skin until fully absorbed. It will not smell if done properly.

Old urine (more than 3 days old) will stop smelling when completely absorbed and is preferred to new urine for chronic organ conditions.

You may also massage urine into your scalp to clean your hair or it may even help control hair loss. Use new or old urine for this (old works better).

A full body massage with urine is also recommended for most health problems.

Compress: Make sure you do not use a synthetic material for the compress. Use wool if tolerated on the skin otherwise, cotton will do.

A compress over a problem area can be beneficial (i.e. kidneys, liver, chest, lungs etc..)

Old urine is best (between 3 and 6 days old) Leave the compress for at least one hour for maximum benefit.

Enema

Urine enemas will help cleanse your colon and regenerates the intestinal flora. It is also a good supply of vitamins, minerals, enzyme etc..

Bath

Use 5 litters of old urine to a full bath for a complete skin and body regeneration. Only for the advanced practitioners as the smell may be too much for you at the beginning.

Gargling

The absolute best remedy for sore throats. Never have I found products that did the job quicker or better.

Inhalation

Use this for sinus problems or when you suspect the beginning of a cold or flu. I personally collect some urine in my hand and sniff it into my nose. It works a treat. If you have any form of sinus problems, try it.

I have been using Urine therapy since the beginning of 2002. I have never read of or experience any adverse reaction to it. But my recommendation of course has to be that you should consult an experience practitioner if you are to use this therapy. This is called covering your ...

Enjoy, it is a fantastic therapy. Free of charge and more efficient than a lot of harmful chemicals used today.

What Your Urine is Telling You About Your Health

Today marked my 29th day on Urine Therapy.

What Your Urine is Telling You About Your Health
By Sally Wadyka for MSN Health & Fitness
Medically Reviewed by: Pat F. Bass III, M.D., M.S., M.P.H. March 4, 2011
A trip to the toilet may be more revealing than you think. “The appearance and smell of your urine—as well as the frequency with which you have to go—can provide many clues to what else is going on in your body,” says Dr. Michael Farber, director of the Executive Health Program at Hackensack University Medical Center in Hackensack, N.J.
Looking pale
If your urine is as colorless as water, well, that’s probably because you’ve been drinking a lot of water. And besides the inconvenience of going to the bathroom many times a day because your bladder is filling up with fluid faster, there’s really nothing medically worrisome about having a light colored output.
Too dark
If your urine has a brownish, iced tea-colored tinge, that could be a sign that you are dehydrated and the kidney is producing more concentrated (as opposed to diluted) urine. “The urine gives good indications of the body’s level of hydration,” Farber says, “so if a patient complains of dizziness or lightheadedness, you would want to check the urine to rule out dehydration as a cause of the problem.” The ideal shade to strive for is the color of straw. Another reason to get yourself checked out if you see dark urine—especially if it doesn’t lighten up after you drink a few glasses of water—is that the cause could actually be blood. It won’t be as obvious as a bright red drop in the toilet, but it could be a sign of bleeding higher up in the kidney which could indicate an infection, kidney disease or even cancer.
Sweet smelling
Catching a whiff of something sugary sweet after you pee might actually be a clue to something very serious going on in your body. “A sugary smell might indicate the presence of blood sugar that’s being excreted in the urine,” says Farber. And a high concentration of blood sugar in the urine is one sign of diabetes. The kidney acts as a filter for all sorts of waste that flows through the body. But if your filter is damaged, things can leak out of it and end up being excreted in the urine. In the case of diabetes, excess blood sugar sneaks out through a leaky filter and shows up in the urine. If you are pregnant, changes in the kidney filtration system can result in the presence of sugar in the urine. Whether pregnant or not, if a doctor finds sugar in your urine, he or she should order further tests to determine if diabetes is a concern.
Funny smelling
It can be a little bit disconcerting, but, smelling an odd odor when you pee is probably nothing to be worried about. Certain foods—asparagus, most notoriously—produce a sulfur-containing amino acid. So when the food is broken down in the digestive system, those smelly substances are released, filtered through the kidney, and then make their way into the urine where they create an unpleasant scent. As soon as the food responsible has been fully digested and flushed from your system completely, the smell will vanish as well.
Bright yellow
Urine that looks nearly neon-colored may seem somewhat alarming, but the cause is most likely nothing more sinister than your daily multivitamin pill. “The B vitamins and carotene in particular give the urine a deeper, more golden color,” says Dr. Deborah J. Lightner, associate professor of urology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. And don’t worry: That brightly colored urine means you’re simply pissing away all of your expensive supplements. The urine color can be affected as the vitamins filter through your system—even as they are being absorbed and utilized.

Urine Therapy Testimonials

Today marked my 28th day on Urine Therapy.


_______________________________________

07/21/2009: Sunny from Chicago, IL writes: "Wow you guys I am so grateful for this wonderful medicine that I now know about. I first read about the therapy and wanted to see if it could help me with my acne. To my surprise my cystic acne, those bumps deep in the skin, would come to a head by the next day. I also found that my urine stops the acne from growing. For example if I notice a small bump and I put urine on a swab and swab it, the acne would actually reseed at the beginning stages. I also started to drink about a fourth cup of my own urine a day. I would wake up urine for 5 seconds, and then fill the glass about a fourth full. Then I would finish using the bathroom and drink the urine while warm. The very first day I felt different. For years I have suffered with depression and anxiety/ADHD. From the day I started drinking urine my whole days were good. I no longer felt nervous around people or scared that someone was looking down on me. You guys this stuff is god sent, nothing worked for me, but this did. Also in my research I found that urine will heal a cut within seconds, I scratched myself and applied urine and the scratch did not even bleed, yes I did see the white flesh, but it immediately started to heal. I cannot express to you the importance of this information. If you can try it. Urine is sterile meaning no bacteria. 95% water, the rest urea and other minerals your body had enough of so it released it from your blood creating urine. Urine has been found to heal a number of things. This is probably why it’s in Pro-Active, Eucerine and a number of other skin care products. I have always been mentally unstable and could not get any relief I even got to the point to where I was going to throw away a great relationship with someone who actually loves me. When I started with this therapy it was as if a veil was taken off of my brain, and I was able to think clearly. I am telling you this in an effort to get anyone I can to try it because I know firsthand it works. If only one listens and benefits from my testimony so be it and thank you earth clinic family for helping me finally feel and be normal. Your examples and your bravery allowed me to find one of the greatest kept secrets to optimal health. Again thank you and I wish you all the best."
11/04/2010: Mom from Apopka, Fl, Usa replies: "I stumbled over UT today.. I have been doing al lot of reading... My elbow was dry from sitting at the computer day after day, I put some UT on it and Ta Da- It's soft again after the 2nd application today!! (I had tried really expensive lotions for months and they didn't work!)

I started having dark circles under my eyes, so I put some there that helped too, after 2 xs it already seems a little better. I'm going to try it a few days and I'll let you know. Then I finally got brave and brushed my teeth with it. I will do this every day for a week and I'll let you know how it goes. My sister was just tested and she found out she has NO calcium left in her bones and her teeth are breaking, I know she would freak out if I told her about this so I am going to order her a book and mail it to her about this anonymously. What do you think?

OK, I drank some... To be honest I have asthma and have had brochettes for over 2 months. I went to my local pharmacy and he told me to use "onion juice and honey" overnight in a container leave it in the re-fridge overnight, and it seems to be working. But now that I have done this too, I am REALLY hoping to get better soon. Oh and one more thing... Try it on your arthritis, I have it in my elbow, wrist and knuckles, (same arm as dry skin on elbow) and guess what - yup, it doesn't hurt anymore! I will be applying that every day! I may try the lavender oil drop trick I read about here to cover any odour, however I don't smell any. Good health to all! "
09/17/2010: Carlos from Barcelona, Spain replies: "Hi I’m in the 3rd day of drinking urine. I still feel embarrassed to say I don’t dislike the taste that much. Think of it as water and salt, that pretty much what it is. Well I'll keep reporting but today... I've started seeing some results not only immediate as I stated above. The thing is I had a glass early in the morning. I had finished my regular breakfast and I had to do some stuff out so I decided to have breakfast in a cafe or something. The thing is I went to do the stuff I had to do post office and stuff and just forgot I didn’t have breakfast. BUT I realized that I was walking and my legs felt lighter not heavy, I mean like when I was 16. I was backing home around 13:30 after lot shopping and walking around town and that when I realized I didn’t have breakfast at all! I was full of energy not tired, not dizziness or anything.
I’m also less lazy about doing things. Usually it takes me a lot of thinking and planning to just go outside and buy whatever. I always home lazy. Now it’s not a big deal for me to get out the sofa if you know what I mean... I got that positive feeling about doing anything. Another thing I realize is the effects on mind and mood definitely. Anybody with depression should try this. I feel kind of younger, less stressed. Another thing that I share in case it can help someone with an addiction. We all have one or another. I don’t consume drugs or play casinos but I have an addiction that doesn’t hurt anybody but I don’t think is healthy at all. Excessive masturbation. Once or twice a day minimum. Since I started UT I don’t feel the urge to do it. I don’t know the reason why I was doing it that much, some hormone imbalance I believe. But I’ve been off from it for 4 days and I really don’t feel like doing it doesn’t have that urge or crave if you want. And I’m so happy with that cause lately I felt like a slave of it. I really could not control avoid it even for a day, morning or night. Right now imp in front the computer and I’m going to go to bed and I don’t need to do it, still can’t believe it but looks like I had a problem and its solved
So I look beautiful, less tired, less stressed, less lazy, and it looks I’m getting rid of the only addiction I had. Give it a try give it 3 or 4 days. Sometimes I drink not only morning but another shot during the day. I truly think what is said in ancient India is true. Just seeing the benefits of this in just a few days I can believe you can get extremely healthy and strong physically and mentally if you follow a UT morning routine for months. That all for now I'll keep updating."

09/15/2010: Carlos from Barcelona, Spain replies: "Hello I had wrote yesterday to report the beautifying properties of urine had on my skin. Ok after few more days now my skin is so even that I'm 29 years old but look like 16. I think the worst thing about this remedy is not be able to tell your loved ones. I've heard that old urine 4 days old is better on the skin but Ive found no way to hide it from my family yet. After tasting it and gargling yesterday morning today I was able to swallow urine. My advice to beginners is just that. Don’t try to drink it the first day cause you won't. You will have nausea or feel bad about it afterwards from your close-minded education. Start by getting familiar with it, taste your finger. The use it as a mouthwash. And one day you will be ready to drink it. I've read the Indian text from 5000 years before Christ. I believe the benefits from this are not strictly nutritional. I felt a well being feeling right after drinking it. Sense improvement specially ears. Stress relief. I did meditate for about 10min afterwards. It’s going to be my daily morning routine and I advice it to everyone. Just drink it sit in your sofa and give yourself 10 min of relax before starting your day focusing in your breathing. As I’m writing this I feel completely de-stressed, in a good mood and sensorial enhancement. I’m definitely drinking it tomorrow morning. I feel my digestive system cleaner in some way. After drinking it I exhale some flatulence but it felt more like a cleaning effect than discomfort. I ate a piece of fruit after meditation and I've never felt food in my system that clear. I mean I could literally feel the fruit moving in my stomach. I don’t know how to explain it but it has definitely clean my stomach. Hope this helps anyone. I just feel so peaceful that I had to share it. Please do yourself a favour and try it. We drink many other poison drinks like alcohol sodas etc. This is all natural water and nutrients you are the one producing it; it’s not going to go against you"

The Complete Guide To Urine Therapy

Today marked my 27th day on Urine Therapy. I have decided to stop my diabetic medication and see how urine therapy could help in controlling and healing my disease. Will be going for medical review on Sep 2011. This will give a 2-month trial to see the effectiveness of urine therapy.


_________________________________________________

I was enormously impressed by this book. Its author strikes me as a responsible and highly intelligent person who has made an important discovery and wishes, for humanitarian reasons, to make it known to the world.

Kroon first became interested in urine therapy in India after sustaining a serious injury to his foot. When instead of healing, the foot gradually grew worse, someone suggested that he use urine compresses. Having nothing to lose he decided to give it a try - and it worked! He then set about researching the subject, both in India and the West, and 'The Golden Fountain - The Complete Guide to Urine Therapy' brings us the fruits of his research and his years of practical experience.

Although not a large book it's packed with an enormous amount of fascinating and valuable information, too much to even begin to adequately describe. After a brief Introduction, Kroon takes up the history of Urine therapy in both the West - where it was used to cure innumerable complaints in earlier centuries - and in the East.
Urine, we learn, has anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, and anti-cancer properties. Also, by strengthening the immune system and correcting the imbalance which underlies most disease, it can in many cases help to cure just about anything, and it has other valuable properties too.

A chapter on Applications is included which describes the various ways urine can be used, both internally and externally, to promote health, beauty, longevity, and even sexual potency! Detailed instructions are given on drinking, bathing, gargling, douching, eye and ear drops, sniffing, massage, compresses, rubbings, foot and hip baths, scalp and hair massages, and other applications.
Chapter 5 is devoted to the 'Medical and Scientific Aspects of Urine Therapy.' In it we learn that urine, far from being the nasty stuff most of us suppose, is a veritable natural pharmacy. It is a sterile liquid, filtered from the blood by our kidneys, and consists of energized structured water plus upwards of some 200 substances.

Among these substances are such things as amino acids, proteins, enzymes, vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, B6,B12, ascorbic acid, etc.), hormones (gonadotropin, vasopressin, cortisone, testosterone, oestrogen, etc.) urea, allantoin, DHEA, H-11, HUD, Interleukin, prostaglandin, and so on.

Some of these are in fact being extracted from urine by today's pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries, repackaged, and sold to us under various names - though without of course telling us where they came from. Chapter 5 concludes with a 60-item bibliography of the scientific literature.
The book then moves on to a section of personal testimonies from people around the world who have experienced the remarkable health-promoting powers of urine therapy. Their general attitude is pretty well summed up by one gentleman from India who wrote: "Urine therapy is the gift of God - a panacea - for human beings and animals" (page 80).

Kroon's is a remarkably rich and interesting book, contains much about the How's and Why's and Wherefore's that I haven't been able to touch on here, and it can be heartily recommended to all open-minded readers. The book is also extremely well written, has a useful general bibliography, and contains a number of interesting photographs, including one of the author.
His glowing complexion would be the envy of many, and you'd be hard put to find a more vibrant, healthy-looking and bright-eyed individual. One begins to feel that, if this is what urine therapy can do for one's health, well-being, and appearance - it might just be worth a try!

Rejuvenate Your Skin

Today marked my 24th day on Urine Therapy. Urine Therapy can heal and rejuvenate our skin. Simply rub fresh urine into the skin with cotton wool on a daily basis. I believed within a week, you could see the difference in your complexion – softer, clearer and youthful. You won’t know what you have missed, if you don’t try.


____________________________

Urine Therapy is an alternative form of medicine, claimed to cure many different health conditions which will be discussed below. This therapy involves the practice of ingesting one’s own urine, applying compresses, or massaging urine into one’s skin. Urine therapy has a very long history and spans many cultures. Ancient Greeks used urine to treat wounds, women in the 17th century took baths in urine to rejuvenate their skin and the Romans used urine to whiten their teeth, to name but a few examples. Moreover, today there are many conditions that believers claim can be cured by the use of urine therapy, and a few of these which will now be discussed.


For the Skin

For individuals who have problem skin or who simply desire to have healthy, youthful looking skin, rubbing fresh urine into the skin on a daily basis can heal and rejuvenate. Supposedly, the longer you keep the urine on your skin, the greater and quicker the benefits of the therapy. In addition, for individuals suffering from dandruff, rubbing urine into the scalp can alleviate and cure the dry skin.

For Gangrene

Urine has been said to cure gangrene quicker than other conditions. When physicians would normally recommend amputation of the affected limb, urine therapy believers might treat the body by having the patient fast on their own urine while continually sipping regular tap water only for several days. In addition, urine compresses are applied to the affected area, relieving the aches and pains and healing the skin. There have been cases where such urine treatment has resulted in the easing of symptoms within a matter of a few days, and to fully cured in a matter of weeks.


For Cancer

Proving that a therapy cures cancer is an ominous task. As you might imagine, if urine was successful in effecting a cure for a patient’s cancer, the argument would typically be advanced that the illness must not have been cancer in the first place. There is the mainstream view that with cancer, an operation and then radiation or chemotherapy is the process one must Normally go through to “cure” cancer. Also, part of this view would purport that analyzing and measuring the growth of a tumor is the only way to properly diagnose cancer, according to traditional medicine. Therefore, if an individual decides to try urine as a cure, and it seems to work, physicians will dismiss the claim that cancer existed in the first place since the proof is not available to support that claim.

Using urine therapy as a method for treating cancer is similar to gangrene – follow a urine and water fast along with applying urine compresses over a period of several weeks.



Allergies

Individuals suffering from allergies may find a cure in urine therapy. Researches have found that when people with allergies drink their own urine, the body can develop antibodies that combat some of the causes of allergies, possibly eliminating the allergies altogether. Here's how this is possible.
When the body initiates an allergic reaction, the cause of that reaction is white blood cells, specifically lymphocytes, that have become rebellious and attack substances that are actually harmless to the body. It has been found that when these rebellious lymphocytes are reestablished inside individuals with allergic responses, antibodies were formed which blocked their allergic reactions. Since urine contains some of these rebellious lymphocytes, researchers surmised that giving patients their own urine would effectively reestablish the lymphocytes inside their bodies, thus blocking their allergies. There is evidence indicating that this treatment has been effective.

What Type of Urine?


The ideal urine for this type of therapy is from the first urination in the morning, as this is when the urine contains the most nutrients. It is best to use the midstream of the urine as the initial part of the stream will clean the urinary passage and the last part of the stream holds the least amount of nutrients.
If one is consuming more than a glass of urine a day, it is suggested to wait at least an hour after consuming food before ingesting the urine. And if a person is drinking several glasses of their own urine, a diet low in protein and salt is recommended.
If an individual is having difficulties ingesting their urine, urinating more frequently and diluting it with water may assist in making it weaker in taste and smell. As well, monitoring the type of foods an individual eats will impact the smell and strength of taste. For example, high protein foods may result in a stronger tasting urine. It should also be noted that in order for urine therapy to have maximum effectiveness, the urine must contain the necessary nutrients, so it is important that an individual eat healthy, nutritious food and avoid convenience foods.



Conclusion


Urine is believed by some to be a cure for various conditions and diseases. It is said to become more pure as the body filters it and as a result, will cleanse, free obstruction and rebuild vital organs and passages if they have been negatively impacted by disease. While there are many people around the world who believe in the benefits of urine therapy, there are also many who advise people to be cautious when considering alternate forms of medicine and specifically ingesting one’s own urine as there are concerns of ingesting toxins that may be harmful to the body. These are two opposing viewpoints and research can be found to support each.

Urine Therapy For Skin

Today marked my 23th day on Urine Therapy.

____________________

Urine therapy for skin involves rubbing and massaging of urine over problematic skin areas. Urine therapy benefits for skin include alleviating itching, acne, psoriasis, rosacea, scalp dryness and many other skin ailments.

Urine therapy is also called by different names, uropathy, urotherapy and urinotherpy. Documented in many cultures, it has been practiced since ancient times. Today, it is gaining importance in alternative medicine. The therapy basically encompasses drinking urine or massaging one’s own urine for treating several health problems. Urine therapy for skin problems is a much talked about topic in alternative form of skin treatment, mainly because of its antiseptic and healing properties.

Why Use Urine therapy for Skin?

Being an excreted waste product, most of us feel reluctant to handle urine. Also, a major concern about urine therapy for skin care is the toxicity of this liquid waste. Well, scientific studies reveal that this liquid bodily waste is not toxic. Urine itself is sterile and possesses antimicrobial properties. Human urine consists of water as its main component (about 95 percent) along with urea in small amounts (about 2.5 percent). Other isolated constituents are enzymes, hormones, minerals and salts.

When applied as a part of routine skin care regimen, urine clears the skin pores and provides some of the healthy nutrients, which altogether aid in correcting skin problems. Much of the toxicity issues of urine therapy revolve around direct ingestion of urine, and the risk factor is increasing urea level in the bloodstream. Otherwise, applying urine or massaging urine into skin is totally safe. The benefits of urine therapy for skin are evident from the known fact that, it is becoming a popular ingredient in beauty products.

Urine Therapy Benefits for Skin

The fresh early morning urine is mostly used for cosmetic and therapeutic benefits. While adopting urine therapy for skin, there are certain considerations. In order to reap maximum urine therapy benefits, one should make sure that healthy foods are consumed. Administering chemical based drugs is linked with alteration in the urine basic ingredients, as traces of drugs get excreted in the urine. Hence, if an individual is currently on strong medications, he/she should refrain from using urine for skin care. With this brief highlight, let’s see how to use urine therapy for acne, along with the benefits of urotherapy for skin.
• Urine therapy for skin is inexpensive, purely natural and free of side effects. The effectiveness of urine therapy for acne, eczema, skin sores, rosacea, scaly scalp and many other skin issues is really impressive.
• For dark spots, acne, bumps and other skin problems occurring in localized areas, use a clean cotton ball for urine application. Dip cotton into urine, and dab it over the affected skin areas. Massage over acne and problematic spots for deep penetration of urine into the skin.
• After spot application of urine, allow it to dry off completely. Retain for some time (at least 8 - 10 minutes) and wash off with plain water. Refrain from using harsh, perfume loaded soaps.
• To soothe severe skin itching, swelling, inflammation, acne outbreaks, blemishes and alike symptoms, use a large urine sample for applying as compresses. This simply works great to alleviate larger skin problem areas without causing adverse effects. You can read more on urine therapy side effects.
• For difficult to treat skin issues, wet a clean cloth and leave it for 10 minutes over affected skin. This ensures that maximum urine is absorbed by the cells in the region. Remove cloth and wash off thoroughly.
• Gently massaging urine in ear region (or acupressure areas) is known to counteract the body’s hypersensitive responses towards allergens. Thus, urine therapy for skin is adopted to get relief from severe allergies.
• In case, skin psoriasis spreads to the scalp area, then also urine therapy is effectual to reduce this scalp problem. Before washing hair, take some urine and work on the affected scalp portion. Leave for some time, and rinse with cold water. Repeat this, until scalp psoriasis disappears.
• Rubbing urine as an after shave toner gives a softer looking and glowing skin. It also aids in soothing common after-shave effects, like itching, redness and soreness. Other than skin application, you may be interested in learning about urine therapy for weight loss.
The side effects of urine therapy for skin are negligible, unless applied over open wounds. It is claimed that old urine (about 4 days old) maintained under specific conditions is more effective for combating skin ailments. As expected, it can be quite smelly, and applying it to skin is not a welcoming idea. To avoid such a situation, you can use fresh urine, preferably after fast that gives thin and less pungent urine.

Benefits of Urine Therapy

Today marked my 22nd day on Urine Therapy. Feeling good and refreshed everyday. You must try in order to know what I meant.


_______________________________________

Urine therapy involves the internal or external use of your urine as a method of promoting or maintaining good health. Contrary to common belief, urine can be ingested since it is not toxic. Actually, urine comprises of 95% water, 2.5% urea and 2.5% mixture of salt, minerals, enzymes and hormones. Urine therapy provides the following health benefits.

1. Treats skin problems
For any skin problems like wounds, eczema, fungus, dermatitis, psoriasis and gangrene among others, urine therapy can be used to provide relief. In such cases a urea or urine pack is recommended. The affected area is covered using a folded piece of cloth that has been well moistened using urine or a concentrated solution of urea. Since urine becomes even more alkaline after being exposed to air for a couple of hours, it is more efficient for external uses as compared to fresh urine.

2. Cancer treatment
Urine therapy has beneficial effects in cancer treatment, particularly if patients have already received radiotherapy or chemotherapy. There are several cases where cancer has been cured exclusively by urine therapy or by adding this particular therapy to a cancer treatment program. Interestingly, uric acid has anti-cancer effects and helps to protect the body against cancer. However, the major cancer-fighting agent is urea as it exists in high quantities in urine.

3. Rejuvenates the body
The ingestion of urine is the best kind of rejuvenation therapy that you can ever use. It definitely rejuvenates the skin and the hair. Actually, the youthful look of most Buddhist monks and other people is attributed to their frequent urine ingestion. In herbal medication, urine therapy offers a vital anti-ageing benefit to those who use it.

Problems usually arise from consuming large quantities of urine and also if a person takes recreational drugs when taking urine. This can result in an overdose while excessive consumption leads to diarrhoea.

Drinking Urine

Today marked my 21st day on Urine Therapy. It was said that if you do certain things for more than 21 days it will become a habit. That was what took place. I have become quite accustomed to this therapy and find it beneficial to my overall being.

Drinking Urine! Yes you read the title of this article correctly. Some people actually drink their own urine to stay healthy and to boost their immune system. This topic is rarely discussed in public. Most people are too embarrassed. However, there are many people who secretly drink their morning urine.

You may ask, "How on earth could urine be healthy?". I am here to show you exactly how urine can benefit your health.

Back in 400 BC, Hippocrates was one of the first to discuss and develop urine therapy. He believed that consuming urine reintroduced the body to previous physical and psychological experiences. It was his belief that this second chance boosts the body's immune system.

In fact, Hippocrates was correct. It is now believed that urine is completely sterile and healthy to the person in which it belongs. Any disease or illness the body was introduced to comes through the urine. If you drink your urine, you are reintroducing that disease back to your body reminding it how to defend itself once again. The reintroduction of the disease will not harm your body, but help it. Urine therapy works on the same principle as an immunization. Immunizations give the body a small dose of a disease so that antibodies are produced. Urine therapy works in much the same manner. Drinking urine merely reminds the body to beware and ready for any disease it contains.
