Tibor, does this 'health practice' work?

Cup of urine a day keeps ailments at bay

BANGKOK (AFP) - [size=-1] Drinking urine can eliminate sinus trouble, turn grey hair black and even cure cancer, a Thai academic said, citing a study of local Buddhists who engage in the unorthodox practice. [/size]

[size=-1] Ratree Cheepudomwit, of the Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicine Development Department, said hundreds of urine drinkers attested that consuming a daily cup worked wonders for their overall health and helped slow the ageing process. [/size]



[size=-1] She said that in June she queried 250 members of Santi Asoke, a strict indigenous Buddhist movement believed to have thousands of followers, and 204 respondents said they had learned from ancient Buddhist manucripts that drinking one's urine improved health. [/size]



[size=-1] "Of the respondents, 87 percent confirmed that it had head-to-toe benefits for them, including for example reduction of dandruff, grey hair, sinus problems and cancer," Ratree told AFP. [/size]



[size=-1] The medical elixir was not easy on everyone's system, as about one in 10 urine drinkers suffered diarrhea afterwards, but the practice should not be viewed with disgust, she said. [/size]



[size=-1] "Other groups of people who drank urine were Buddhist monks who practised in accordance to scriptures which are more than 2,500 years old," she said.[/size]

Anyone with a name like RatTree CreepDimwit shouldn't be giving health advice.

:lol:

Not exactly the scientific method, is it? Of course they thought it was good for them or they wouldn't be doing it.

In other news: 10 out of 10 drunk drivers thought they weren't too drunk to drive.

Does a cup of pee taste great, or is it less filling? Does it have a lot of carbs?

I'm thinking that if you're drinking pee, you've got more serious problems than gray hair, dandruff or sinus trouble.
