    It's not just for quenching thirst:D

    Auto-urine therapy is an age-old practice of ancient India. Its practitioners talk of Shivambhu, auspicious water of Lord Shiva, a Hindu god and promote it as an inexpensive way to gain health and vitality

    A bit of an oddball, auto-urine therapy (AUT) is gaining popularity to combat a host of illnesses and to maintain good health. It is considered effective in treating a wide array of diseases such as multiple sclerosis, colitis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, hepatitis, pancreatic insufficiency, psoriasis, eczema, diabetes and herpes.

    According to Xinhua news agency more than three million Chinese drink their own urine believing that it is good for their health.

    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.

    Same sentiment, but I think you'd have to filter it or let it evaporate and collect the moisture the way they do in those survival programmes on TV.
    Drinking a lot of it would probably do more harm than good.:)

    One famous person who drank his own urine - but very small amounts - every day was India's second Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri, who died in office in 1965. He was a remarkable and unusual character in other respects as well, not least the fact that, although he had been a minister and Prime Minister for years, he died poor, owning only an old car on which he still owed money.:D

    They don't make them like that any more.:cool:

    In such a scenario, drinking your own urine would be the safest option. So if I had to I would.

    Anyway OP if you really had to, like start a thread. Would you answer the question you are putting to other Boardsie's in the original post? Or would you just not bother your arsé doing so?

    Be careful, you can get gout from drinking too much... letter to Savage love

    Jim Stynes (RIP) used drink it as it is believed to be an anti cancer agent. as seen in the documentary brought out about him 2 years ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,940 ✭✭✭✭Rothko


    I've drank Budweiser before. I doubt that there's much difference between that and drinking your own piss.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,059 ✭✭✭Sindri


    Every time you urinate a small amount of urine enters your mouth through the saliva glands.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,282 ✭✭✭MyKeyG


    I was with a girl once who wanted me to piss into her mouth.

    You can also use your own urine to bleach fur and leather white. For decoration, like.

    It's sterile (when fresh), and its most beneficial property, when drinking it, is that it is mostly comprised of water. That's it - no bullsh1t ACM theories about curing cancer, cleansing blood and detoxifying the body.

    Yeah cancer etc might be a bit far fetched but this is one that really does work,

    * also as aftershave* *
    Eau de stale p1ss

    So what wonders does piss gargling work compared to say, a saline mouthwash?

    Or 'generally' when having a cold? I find generally, waiting about a week or so works in 100% of cases

    If I had to drink it I would.
