Drinking own urine .. what can you say about this?

I can't imagine drinking my own urine, my own body waste. It is so disgusting and I haven't heard of any health benefits by drinking it. The last fight of Juan Manuel Marquez, he reveals that he is drinking his own urine so many are shocked. Also here in our country, urine from the morning is also a treatment for sore eyes. But maybe we are not just aware of it's health benefits that the other knows.

According to Mr. John Armstrong. Urine is a water of life. And from the proverb 5:15 drink water from thy own cistern. Meaning we can drink urine from our own. Traditional belief said that the only unpolluted thing in this world is our urine and from history it can heal wounds or something like that. But it was just a long time ago now, as we invented new things we can also know and invent new knowledge. So lets face now the fact, urine is one of the body fluids that's being excreted by the body so it mean urine is a waste product, so why you going to drink it once you already excreted it? ha ha. Drinking my urine just for health reasons? What reasons huh? Do you think it will help huh? Why not just drink water. Urine is composed of urea, uric acid, creatinine and others and that's all substances that is harmful to our bodies. Too much of one of those may lead you to kidney disease, and more. Just curious, what will be the benefit of drinking our own urine?

minging lol, personally I don't think its healthy to drink your own urine, as it is basically your own bodies waste. the body will of taken any nutrients or minerals or vitamins out of your body before you then pass urine so all that your urine will contain is what your body does not need.

well the concept of drinking urine itself makes me a little yuck! but well even i have heard it has some few health benefits but if it is consequences which require me to have my own then i dunno.!

Hi moneymakingtoday! I've actually heard about that drinking-urine thing before. They said that you only drink your early morning urine. The one that you pee when you wake up in the morning :D I don't know about the facts about this practice. They say that there are actually books written about the health benefits of it. I haven't seen the book/s though. I don't know if it really works but I'm actually open-minded about it. There are still a lot of things that science can offer to the world, whether it be sounding ridiculous or not, hehehe! It's quite a good point though that urine is a body waste, hence the reason it's excreted out of our body. But one thing is for sure for me, even if the facts about the health benefits of drinking urine are indeed true, I still wouldn't practice it. Just the thought of it makes me sick. There are still other ways of maintaining good health. For me, exercise, along with a healthy diet, are still by far the best practices for good health. Not only are they beneficial to the body but to the mind as well as they promote discipline and provide long term effects.

hello ... 'amaroli' or urine therapy is as old as time itself, but like any other alternative medicines, creates the feeling of uncertainty & it's nature would create much discomfort in undergoing such treatment. it is found in different cultures under different names, yet it hasn't been proven that it works. there's a book written on it. you may check the web or wiki for urine therapy or amaroli. i remember my grandma told me to put urine on a bee or wasp sting if i can't find an onion. who knows maybe it works, but hey i won't be the one trying to prove it ;) cheers!

Indian Prime Minister Morarji Desai used to advocate drinking of Urine as a good health practice. Since then it is called Morarji Cola here. I do not know about the health aspects but as it is more or less liquid it would not seriously harm a body, but more than anything just the concept of drinking the urine makes me sick. :) Cheers!

an old mountain woman told me one time to always wipe the baby's face off with the diaper when it was just pee. supposedly it kept the skin/complection very nice. but i could never do it...yuck imagine growing up and finding out your mom wiped your face with urine? disgusting. wonder where crazy people come up with such things. tell your friend he/she has done lost their mind so bad there may not be help for that.

I have never of heard of your own urine being any good for you before! I did hear something about urinating on your feet cures tinea although I doubt it because it sounds most unsanitary to me! If I was seriously ill and urine was the only proven cure I would consider drinking it but only if it was proven otherwise I would stick to the conventional methods. Isn’t urine toxic being a waste product from the body?

yuck..i don't think so..its insane i think to drink our own urine..and i don't think it have any good to our health..

oh,that's unusual, hmmm me i will not do that thing

I didn't read any books that drinking a urine is good for our health. I heard this from Manuel Marques, that when he is preparing to fight May Weather he told to one of the reporters that he is drinking his urine to became strong...But the end is losing the fight. I don't drink my own urine, friend. But if there is a reason to drink it I drink it. Why, if this is one of the remedy for us to live, right?

I have read and heard before that your own urine is supposedly good for your health and the that persons in different countries do this daily for nutrition and health reasons but I just think it is yuck..I mean as far as I have always been told and understood is that your urine is also a way to flush out waste and infection or even disease at times so I don't really see why you would want to but I also saw a story once where a couple was stranded in the desert or something and had to drink their urine to keep dehydrated or they would die so while it may be yuck I think if I had to do it to save my life i more than likely would.

MORE POWER TO HER but, as for me "HELLL NNOOO MY "A's" IS A GONER!!lollol

No and Never !!! I would not support drinking own urine. Urine is the water which came from body after sucked or filtered by our vital body parts kidney. If you lost your both kidney you will die so kidney suck or filter our body's poisons and so we discharge it in the form of urine. Prime Minister of India Late Mr. Morarjee Deshai used to drink his own urine for health but he did not survived for this ??!!!!!

hmmm..., Long year ago there was a program on national TV called 'Jaan Hai Too Jahan Hai'. I am very much inspired by this title. If I dying and some tell me take cow's urine, you will recover. I will definitely take it. And I read about urine therapy in a ayurvedic magazine named 'Nirogdhaam'. There is a doc in Indore in India, Who treat his mother with cow urine and so many other patient too. I hope you get answer of query.

Few months back i have seen an article where a reigning boxing champion has made an practice of drinking his own urine coz his daily routines involves extreme workouts for which he had take proteins and he thinks that he is wasting out all those proteins through his urine so he has decided to take his urine so doesnt loose them any more.he must be crazy to do this and i wouldnt go for it and i believe that our urine contains only wastes.gud day.

No, I won't, urine contains wastes from our body. Urine have more urates or uric acid that is not good for the body. It also contains minerals that our body does not need anymore.Why do we have to take in what our body has rejected already?

Drinking your own morning Urine is very healthy for u. Your friend is doing correct by doing that. Even drinking Cow's urine is very healthy. But take guidance before starting it. You will get information on net or Magazine "Nirogdham".

That is discusting no matter what the reason. Human urine is ecinally poisins the body tries to expell why in gods good name would anyone be stupid enough to put that stuff back in their systems? Someone really must be crazy to consider that an option for health reasons. Sorry if I sound like a bit of a bit...ch about this, but what else do you expect. That's more then wrong on so many levels.
