Urine Therapy! Lol.

[Smowball]

I read a news article yesterday about a woman who has started doing urine therapy! When she wakes up every morning she pees into a cup and drinks it, then through the day as she wees she rubs it on her skin, through her hair, and uses it as an eyewash!! She reckons she feels much better so far, but hasn’t told her partner as she doesn’t know what his reaction will be and he hasn’t found out yet as they have separate bathrooms. Bet she smells delightful on a hot bus!!
Has anyone ever heard of this?

I think its quite popular in some countries- theres health benifits apparantly

I've heard of people paying hard cash for a similar experience.

They're generally a right shower.

Apparently there a number of people who believe in this:-

I remember watching a programme about fecal therapy for certain conditions in Russia.

Honestly, the things some folk will do to avoid queueing at the pharmacy.

That has been happening for years...remember reading about the benefits in the late 60s.....and no I didn't/don't !!

Maybe there's something in it though. I had expected an early reply to say that it's a lot of pish.

[douglas9401]

"How can they not smell?"

Maybe as well as long covid there's wee covid.

Smowball/....how can they not smell? People rarely smell of all the things they eat or drink...possibly brushing ones teeth helps with a possible problem of odour!

[Ken4155]

I take it you mean separate bedrooms?

[bobbinwales]

//How can they not smell??//
Am not a fan but surely the smell won't be any worser , maybe better, than from eating curry, garlic, excess beer or tobacco

[Ken4155]

Mally, Smow says besides from drinking their own pish, they rub it into their skin. That's where the smell would come from.

[Smowball]

Same bedroom but separate bathrooms but yes if you’re rubbing it on you’re skin........ the things people do lol

[LadyCG]

It's a p1ss1n joke...

[ToraToraTora]

she hasn't told her partner? If his sense of smell works he knows!

[Ken4155]

That's why i thought Smow meant separate bedrooms, TTT. Perhaps her partner thinks she has gone a bit incontinent but is too much of a gent to bring the subject up :-)

[aelmpvw]

you wouldn't want to use a cup if you lived with her would you?
