URINE
THERAPY
BY
IVAN HINCE
Alternative medicine often comes up with the unusual and
Urine therapy is no exception to that rule. It is
said to date back thousands of years and even today many
million digest their own urine as they believe that it
contains everything that they need for long life and
good health.
Some of
these beliefs have been handed down from generation to
generation. It is believed that in Japan there are
at least three million people that take their daily
urine, and in India it is said to have a religious back
ground.
What
does confuse me is the arguments for and against Urine
Therapy as it seems that one person will say one thing
while another will rebuke anything they say.
Many
will turn round to say that it is a disgusting thing to
do, yet others will tell you that urine has less
bacteria than blood and that it is full of natural
nutrients.
These
nutrients involve a long list, and according to the
people who are all for Urine Therapy say that the
kidneys filter the blood, and the nutrients that are
pushed out in the urine are the excess that are not
needed at that particular time.
Others
will then argue that these nutrients are in such small
quantity that it would be pointless taking them, but
then the argument comes back saying that often small
amounts are more effective like that in ordinary
medicine.
Some
even go further saying that they dilute it time and time
again and that by doing so the Urine Therapy is even
better.
To sum
up I believe that this argument will go on for a long
time, and until money is put forward for proper medical
tests we will never know.
