There are stories that urine can cure. Do you believe? Have you tried?

I heard that urine can cure but I have not personally done it. I think I could not drink urine, even if it's my own urine. Perhaps for external purposes, I may use urine to cure skin infections, but never as a drink.

I don't know. But I also heard that urine can really cure. Personally, I have not tried using urine for anything. I believe that it is waste excreted from the body so I don't think it's a good cure and I don't like at all to use it to cure myself.

I have heard that many times and I don't like to believe it but for the sake of curiosity, I tried to use urine to wash my itchy toes and it's improving! And the skin becomes smoother! LOL! I think it could really cure but I don't think I would ever drink it. I can use urine for external purposes only as what I have done with the itchy toes of my left foot. There's no harm in trying. Practically everything we use underwent experimentation. There might be truth in it as my medical technology graduate cousin says that whatever is excess in our body is thrown away with the urine and therefore, if there is an excess in the nutrients, that would go out with the urine and therefore the urine is nutritious! But it's not safe because along with the nutrients, there might be disease carriers. I would say that we should not drink urine.

I doubt but there's no harm in trying but for external purposes only. It's unsafe to drink it for we might be drinking disease carriers found in the urine. And that's waste, why should we drink it?

definitely not. it's like 100% liquid waste of your body. would you put the used oil back on your car after the oil changing process? we throw it right?

hey friend, i'm from a rural part of India. In our village old people use to treat certain internal traumas using urine especially cow's urine....i dont knw what is the science behind that, but really i feel that it's a real good treatment....may be because urine contains Sodium salts that may improve the muscle functioning of the body.
