Urine Therapy
1. Collect
Midstream Urine in a Clean Cup or Container
A dean glass or clear plastic container is best for collecting
the urine. In the research studies, urine is usually collected
by means of a "clean catch" in which the genital area
is cleansed before collecting the urine. This is important for
women in particular when using urine therapy internally and can
be done by simply washing with a little soap and water. Collect
the midstream urine only. You can take along pre-packaged clean
catch kits which include a sterile cup and antiseptic paper towelettes
for convenience during travel or whenever unsanitary living conditions
or contaminated water are a problem.
2. Always Use Fresh Urine Immediately Upon Collection
Urine breaks down quickly outside the body so use it internally
as soon as you collect it. If you are going to use it for external
use only, this isn't as important, as you can use either fresh
or old urine for most external applications.
3. Begin With Oral Drops Then Increase Dosage As Needed
Once you've read the book and are ready to begin using the therapy,
Start by taking a only few drops each day in order to let your
body adjust gradually.
Fill a clean medicine dropper from the cup of urine and place
one or two drops under your tongue. This method lets you get used
to the taste slowly and will still give you health benefits. You.
can slowly increase and adjust the amount later when you've determined
what amount is right for your condition.
1. Start by taking 1-5 drops of morning urine on the first day.
2. The second day, take 5-10 drops in the morning.
3. Third day, take 5-10 drops m the morning, and the same amount
in the evening before you go to bed.
4. Once you feel accustomed to the therapy, gradually increase
the amount as needed for obtaining results for your condition.
As you use the therapy, you will learn to adjust the amount you
need by observing your reactions to the therapy. More information
on dosage is given further on in this chapter.
4. Do Not Boil Or Dilute The Urine
Research studies show that boiling urine destroys many oi its
medicinal properties, so when taking it internally, use it only
in its fresh, natural form. Research studies have also shown that
diluting urine (or urea) decreases its antibacterial activity,
so rather than diluting it in juice or water to get accustomed
to using it.
5. Homeopathic Urine
The importance of using urine collected at the beginning or height
of acute symptoms of illness, particularly infections and allergies,
has been suggested by some researchers, because this urine contains
the greatest amount of antibodies and immune-defense agents with
which the body is already fighting the illness. A homeopathic
preparation preserves this potent first-stage-illness urine and
can then be used throughout the duration of the illness. Homeopathic
urine is also excellent for children. For those of you with extreme
sensitivity or toxicity, who may feel that you are getting too
strong a reaction to the urine initially, try using it as a homeopathic
dilution. I
6. Monitor And Balance Your Ph
pH refers to the acid/alkaline condition of the body. The body
is normally mildly acidic, and maintaining the proper pH is crucial
in urine therapy. pH values naturally change throughout the day.
Morning urine is generally more acidic than mid-day urine, and
pH also changes in response to diet - in general, foods like meats,
coffee, alco- hol, milk, eggs and beans make the body more acidic
while most fruits and vegetables have an. alkaline effect. (See
Appendix for a more complete listing of add/alkaline foods). It's
always good to keep an eye on both your urine and saliva pH levels,
because both should present a proper acid/alkaline balance. The
ideal pH range of saliva is about 6.4 - 7.2, (below 6.4 is too
acidic, above 72. \s too alkaline). Saliva usually becomes more
alkaline after eating and with a vegetarian diet. Urine pH should
ideally vary from approximately 5.0 (acid in the morning) to 8.0
(alkaline at night) during each 24-hour period. If your urine
or saliva pH levels are consistently out of range for a long period,
of time, it means that your body is not functioning correctly
or that your diet is consistently too add or too alkaline. pH
measuring strips with numerical values are commercially available
for testing your acid/alkaline levels and make it simple to regularly
monitor your pH at home, (or see order form on last page). The
tendency to overacidity is called acidosis which can be caused
by such things as kidney, liver or adrenal disorders, improper
diet, starvation, anger, stress, fear, fever or excess vitamin
C, aspirin or niacin. Symptoms may include insomnia, water retention,
migraine headaches, frequent sighing, abnormally low blood pressure,
dry hard stools, alternating constipation and dianhea, sensitivity
of the teeth, difficulty swallowing and recessed eyes. Alkalosis
(when the body is too alkaline) can be caused by such things as
excessive use of antacids or by poor diet, excessive vomiting
(bulimia), endocrine imbalances, high cholesterol, osteo-arthritis,
or diarrhea. Symptoms may include drowsiness, protruding eyes,
creaking joints, sore muscles, bursitis, edema, night coughs,
menstrual problems, allergies, night cramps, chronic indigestion,
or asthma. The first and easiest methods that you can use to correct
pH are to increase relaxation, rest, fresh air, and exercise,
decrease stress and make dietary adjustments. If you're too acid,
decrease acid foods in your diet and eat more alkaline foods;
if you're too alkaline, decrease alkaline foods and eat more acid
foods. (For a list of acid or alkaline foods see the Appendix
at the back of the book).
It's extremely important to monitor your pH levels during urine
therapy because if your urine is too alkaline, it may decrease
its antibacterial activity. On the other hand, if the urine is
consistently excessively acidic, urine therapy could create too
much of an acid burden in your body. In this case, make certain
that your diet is primarily alkaline-promoting foods, so that
you are balancing your pH and not adding to your body's acid burden
through ingesting extremely acidic urine. Also, if you have a
severe chronic problem with acidosis (this is often tine of diabetics),
use only a few drops of urine at a time, or substitute a homeopathic
urine preparation. Test your urine pH once or twice each day for
a few days when using urine therapy for the first time or when
using it intensively. Do not ingest the same urine that you dip
the pH strip into for testing. If you are taking only a small
mamtenance dose per day, test pH once every three to five days
in order to determine whether dietary adjustments are needed.
If you find that your urine pH is very acid, add a pinch of baking
soda to the urine you'll be ingesting to reduce the acidity.
7. Do not use urine therapy if you are pregnant without a doctor's
supervision:
Although pregnant women have been treated with successfully urine
therapy for morning sicimess or edema, the therapy should not
be used during pregnancy without the supervision of a doctor familiar
with the medical use of urine. Doctors have reported that they
have used urine therapy for morning sickness in pregnancy with
excellent results, but there are reports of two spontaneous abortions
which occurred after urine therapy treatments (Dunne and Plesch),
possibly because of the natural release of toxins which occur
with urine therapy.
Fertility: On the other hand, if you're trying to get pregnant,
several successful fertility drugs such as Pergonai are made from
urine extracts and a few women have reported to me that they feel
urine therapy helped them to conceive. The best and safest method
in this case is to use urine therapy for a certain time period
(six months) before trying to conceive and to discontinue its
use during the days that you're attempting to conceive. You can
use urine diagnostic tests to determine when you're ovulating
and when you've conceived, and you can gear your use of urine
accordingly.
Urine Therapy and Drugs: In the past I have recommended that you
do not use urine therapy if you are taking any type of drugs or
are a heavy smoker, alcohol user or coffee drinker. However, new
research has come to my attention that shows that urine therapy
can be beneficial under all of these conditions. Dr. William Hitt,
an American doctor who actually has urine therapy clinics in Mexico,
has reported to me that he has treated 20,000 patients in a 2
? year period with urine therapy injections. These patients include
those with cancer, asthma and other diseases and also patients
with severe alcoholism, drug and smoking addictions. Dr. Hitt
reports startling success with no side effects in using urine
infections for addictive disorders and also in combination with
pre-scription. drugs. The amount of drugs or contaminants passed
into urine is so infinitesimal that they pose no threat and, in
fact, appear to act as vaccine-type agents which improve or cure
these types of disorders. This is also supported by the book Urinalysis
in Clinical Laboratory Practice from Miles Laboratories, in which
the authors state that even in a case of severe mercury poisoning,
the actual amount of mercury passed into the urine is infinitesimal.
When these types of conditions are present, start on 1-5 drops
orally per day for 3-5 days in order to avoid heavy detoxificatiorL
Increase the drops by one or two each day according to how well
you're tolerating the therapy, gradually increase the amount as
needed to obtain results for your individual condition.
8. Improve Your Diet & Avoid Meat When Using Urine Therapy
Intensively Before Fasting
In general, your diet should consist of balanced amounts oi whole
grains, fresh vegetables and small amounts of lean meats and fish.
If you are eating large amounts of refined foods, sugar, soda,
coffee, etc. you will not get the full benefits of urine therapy
and, depending on how poor your diet is, you may experience unpleasant
symptoms of headache, nausea, etc., as your body regulates and
expels undesirable elements. If you're only using a few oral drops
of urine or ingesting one or two ounces once a day, your meat
intake can remain normal as long as your usual intake is moderate.
As studies on urea and the kidney have shown (Dr. C. Giordano),
urea helps your body break down proteins more efficiently,, which
may mean that when using urine therapy, you can get the increased
benefits of protein intake even. though you are eat-ing less meat
and other sources of protein. This information will probably also
be of value to vegetarians who rely on mach less concentrated
protein sources in their foods than regular meat eaters. Decrease
or elinrunate meat in your diet while ingesting large amounts
of urine or preparing for a fast, as combining intensive urine
therapy and high meat intake may lead to excess add levels in
the body.
9. Detoxifying Symptoms
When you first begin urine therapy, you may initially experience
symptoms such as headache, nausea, diarrhea, tiredness, or skin
rashes. In many of the research studies in Chapter 4, the doctors
often observed such symptoms in their patients, which are the
body's natural responses as stored toxins from illness and disorders
are excreted and removed from the body. These symptoms normally
disappear within 24 to 36 hours. Also, by starting your therapy
with a few oral drops, you may avoid or lessen the severity of
detoxificadon. If you. have begun your therapy with larger amounts,
and are experiencing unpleasant symptoms, decrease the amount
you are ingesting and continue with smaller doses. Homeopathic
remedies and simple herbs can also be used and are often of great
help during detoxificarion to relieve headache, nausea, diarrhea,
etc.
10. Children
Several research studies, such as those done by Drs. Krebs, Piesch,
Duncan, Lewis and Dunne, deal specifically with the treatment
of children with urme therapy. The easiest internal form of the
therapy for children is oral drops of the child's own freSh urine.
As mentioned in the studies, for acute flu, colds, viral infections,
measles, mumps, chicken pox, etc., small frequent oral doses of
1-10 drops during illness have been shown to be very effective.
For allergies, the research studies indicate that several drops
of fresh urine should be given orally before and after meals containing
aller- genic foods, or when allergic symptoms are present. Drs.
Dunne and Lewis give very specific, simple instructions for using
urine therapy for treating allergies in children which are included
in their reports. Another very effective method recommended by
Dr. Dunne is to prepare a homeopathic dilution of the child's
urine for use throughout the illness or allergy attack. Collect
urine at the onset of symptoms and prepare according to the instructions
given in the section Homeopathy and Urine Therapy. Research studies
also indicate that symptoms of illness may temporarily increase
immediately following the first few doses of urine therapy, but,
in all cases, these symptoms dissipated within 24 - 48 hours.
For ear infections, fresh, warm urine drops in the affected ear
can give excellent and often instantaneous results. Repeat as
needed.
Maintenance Dose
A daily mamtenance dose is usually considered by those who use
urine therapy regularly to be one to two ounces of morning midstream
urine. but this dose may also be as little as 5-10 drops per day,
or every other day, depending on your individual condition and
needs. Many lifetime users of urine therapy such as the former
prime minister of India, have commented that regular use of urine
therapy noticeably assists in main-taining energy levels, reducing
aging and in preventing illness.
Severe, Acute And Chronic Illnesses
For those with chronic or severe illnesses such as cancer, some
urine therapy users such as John Armstrong strongly recommend
ingesting as much urine as you pass or as much as possible during
the day for several days, however, much smaller doses have also
been reported to be effective. If you are ingesting large amounts,
fasting or sharply decreasing your solid food intake during this
time reduces the burden on the .kidneys and allows the body to
use more energy for healing, rather than digestion. It would be
extremely unadvisable for most people to undertake the kind of
prolonged urine fast that John Armstrong suggests, and short urine
and water fasts of one to three days can be very effective. Stop
ingestion shortly before bed at night so that the body can rest,
and resume when you awake in the morning. If you do not want to
fast, but feel that you need to ingest larger amounts of urine,
eat small, simple, light meals, preferably, fresh home-made unseasoned
vegetable soups. If you leci you need a grain, use plain millet
or rice, or whole grain, salt-free crackers. There is more information
on fasting. Long-standing, difficult conditions naturally may
require a longer period of treatment. What I discovered in my
own treatment was that I needed to ingest a large amount initially
(about 2 ounces 4-5 times/day) every day, for about two weeks,
at which point, I switched to small frequent doses (one to two
ounces) three to four times a day for another two weeks and then
tapered off to 1-2 ounces twice a day, then every other day, etc.
The maintenance dose is 5-10 drops per day. This was my approach, but you may find that your individual require-ments or more or
less than these amounts. If you are suffering from an acute illness
such as an infection, the traditional treatment is to fast completely
or to eat only light meals such as homemade, unseasoned vegetable
broth while ingesting frequent doses of urine for at least one
day, or until you feel that your improvement is complete and stable.
I have found, as have many others, that eating heavily too soon
after recovering from a viral or bacterial infection may produce
a relapse, so make sure that you're feeling stable before starting
to eat normally again. Always break your fast by slowly reintroducing
light foods, homemade fresh vegetable soups, then crackers, grains,
etc.
Rest, Rest, Rest
Once you have healed .a serious illness and achieved improved
health, continue the practice of a daily maintenance dose of urine
therapy and a good diet. Also, never allow yourself to become
consistently exhausted or overtired. Consistent proper rest is
much more crucial to health than most people realize. And once
you have recovered fit>m a majorillness, you must be extremely
vigilant in getting abundant rest and relaxation. I have seen
many instances in which people completely cure them-selves of
even 'incurable' diseases through urine therapy and natural healing
and remain well far a number of years, only to completely undo
all the good they've accomplished by over-confidently pushing
themselves to extremes in their work or recreation. One of the
saddest examples of this error that I know of was the case of
a young, bright, determined AIDS patient who had completely cured
himself of all visible and clinical evidence of the disease, but
subse-quently consistently and relentlessly overworked at his
demanding corporate job. Eventually, he fell ill, relapsed and
was not able to recover. However, in another case, a person who
had recovered from a seriousillness experienced a relapse from
overexertion, but complete rest and intense urine therapy led
to an excellent recovery. But why put your-self through that ordeal
and risk the chance of seriously undermining your body's hard-won
repair work?
Assiduous urine therapy can give you such renewed vigor and energy,
that it's easy to become overconfident and overdo, which, is not
a huge problem for normal people. But for people recovering from
major illnesses, exhaustion can pose a life-long threat, so protect
your new-found health and your natural immune defenses with lots
of rest, fresh air, moderate exercise and minimized stress.
Kidney Disorders
If you have a history or presence of a kidney infection, limit
the initial amount of oral urine therapy you take to small doses
such as 1-5 drops once or twice a day, or use a homeopathic dilution
as described in the section on. Homeopathy and Urine Therapy in
this chapter. Decrease or eliminate meat ingestion. and acid-forming
foods before beginning the therapy. Also, check your acidity levels
with pH strips, and begin urine therapy when your acid levels
have normalized or decreased substantially.
Allergies
In the clinical research studies done on urine therapy and allergies,
practitioners such as Dunne and Wilson used oral drops with excellent'
results. Refer to these studies for directions and again, begin
with one or two drops and then gradually increase the number of
drops, or as Wilson suggests, take the drops until you can no
longer sense the urine taste or temperature. If you know what
your allergies are, take the drops before eating a food that you're
allergic to; if you don't know what you're allergic to, take several
drops of fresh urine immediately upon the appearance of symptoms,
and repeat this method each time the symptoms reoccur. Homeopathic
urine preparations, as described by Dr. Dunne, are also excellent
for allergies, as you can preserve the urine collected at the
height of allergy symptoms for long term treatment of the allergy.
See the section on preparing homeopathic urine.
Food Poisoning
Several of the research studies show that urea is a proven anti-bacterial
agent (Drs. Schlegel, Kaye, Weinstein etc.), and urine has been
found to contain antibodies to food contaminants such as salmonella
bacteria in infected individuals (Lemer and Remington). Begin
by taking 1-5 drops. Increase dosage as tolerated.
Fasting
Fasting on urine is an excellent therapy that can produce extraordinary
results, especially for intractable diseases and tough chronic
conditions, but always work into a fast slowly. Begin with oral
drops for two to three weeks, increase your dosage to 1-3 ounces
during the next two or three weeks, and begin fasting the following
week. Eliminate all meat intake at least three days before the
fast. When I first started urine therapy, I was so seriously ill
with so many different conditions and in such extreme pain, that
I rushed into aweek-long fast on urine and water alone. But I
don't recommend this approach because I've found that it isn't
necessary to rush into the ther-apy in order to get good "results.
Pushing your body too quickly can produce often severe detoxifying
symptoms such as headaches, fever, nausea, depression, or fatigue
that you can lessen or avoid by. Simply adjusting to the therapy
gradually with a few oral drops each day. During the fast, ingest
as much urine as you pass during the day until it becomes completely
dear; stop ingesting for a few hours and then resume. Decrease
or stop your intake at night and begin again when you awake in
the morning. Alternate urine intake with small sips of cool water
or ice-chips if desired. Drink as much water as you feel thirsty
for, and stay well-hydrated at all times, but do not force-drink
large quantities of water; as research shows (Kaye and Schlegel),
this can dilute the urine, and decrease the urea's anti-bacterial
action. Force-drinking water, in addition to urine ingestion,
may also stress the kidneys. Combine urine fasting with urine
skin massages, particularly on the face, neck and feet. John Armstrong
insisted on this method because he felt that it gave extra nourishment
to the body while fasting and eliminated possible headaches and
nausea. The rubs are also refreshing and make the skin dear and
soft. When breaking the fast, start by eating a simple homemade
fresh vegetable soup broth such as one made of fresh kale, carrots,
fresh green leeks, scallion tops and a little fresh ginger. Do
not add salt or seasonings. Eat only the broth for a day or two,
the broth and vegetable the next day, and begin gradually adding
in more vegetables and carbohy-drates such as rice and millet
over the next few days. Short periods of fasting (1-3 days) can
be an extremely effective method for cleansing and healing the
body; long fasts should always be under-taken with caution and
supervision.
Homeopathy and Urine Therapy
In the course of using urine therapy, I found that combining the
therapy with homeopathic medicines in particular can produce incredible
results, even for the toughest, most stubborn chronic conditions.
Severely weakened, debilitated, chronically ill individuals often
develop extreme sensitivities to ordinarily helpful herbal, vitamin,
mineral and other medicinal preparations, but are able to tolerate
homeopathic medidnes very well. Homeopathic medicines are simply
extremely diluted natural sub-stances such as plants, minerals,
etc. that gently stimulate a healing reaction in the body. A homeopathic
medicine is prepared by diluting a minute amount of a particular
natural substance with water; the dilution is shaken several tunes
and then alcohol may be added to the solution as a preservative.
You can take the homeopathic medicine in its liquid form, or as
a small sucrose pill which has been saturated with the liquid.
Homeopathic Urine
Dr. Nancy Dunne, the allergy researcher, reported that her colleague,
Dr. Fife, used urine in the form of a homeopathic dilution with
excellent results. Homeopathic urine is excellent for children
and may be helpful to those with extreme sensitivities. It also
provides a means of preserving urine collected during the first
stages or the onset of illness, at,which time the urinary antibodies
and iinmune defense agents are most reported to be most numerous
and active. Pre-prepared homeopathic urea can also be purchased,
although this would contain only urea and none of the antibodies
or immune factors of a whole urine homeopathic preparation. The
traditional book for selecting and using homeopathic medicines
is referred to as the Materia Medica, which contains a listing
of the remedies and Lndications for their use. These lists are
referred to as Repertories, such as Boericke's Repertcay and Kent's
Repertory. These books are actuallymvery enjoyable to learn to
use, and the Boerickc's Repertory in particular can guide you
to very specific, effective remedies for virtually every disorder.
Dr. Dunne reported that the following procedi.ire
for preparing a homeopathic dose oi urme was used by Dr. Fife,
and had produced remarkable healing:
1. To 5 mis (1/6 of an ounce) of distilled water in a sterile
bottle add one drop of fresh urine.
2. Cap the bottle and shake vigorously 50 times (this is the first
dilution).
3. Take one drop of this mix and add to another 5 mis (1/6 oz.)
of distilled water; shake 50 times.
4. Take one drop of this mix and add to 5 mis (1/6 oz.) of 80
to 90 proof vodka which acts as a preservative.
5. Place three drops under the tongue hourly until there is obvious
improvement or temporary exacerbation of symptoms. As improvement
progresses, lengthen the interval between treatments. After 3
days, suspend treatment to avoid pushing the immune system. Treatment
is resumed if progress remains static or relapse occurs.
For beginners who feel unsure about how to use homeopathy, the
best book I have found as an overall introduction to self-care
through home-opathy is The Fanfily Guide to Homeopathy, Symptoms
and Natural Solutions, by Dr. Andrew Lockje. This is a tremendously
comprehensive self-help guide which introduces the fundamentals
of how the body functions, how and why specific illnesses and
disorders are contracted, and what homeopathic remedies will best
augment the body's natural healing. This book is an extraordinary
adjunct to urine therapy and contains helpful material about a
wide range of disorders that I have never found anywhere else.
When using homeopathy, you have a choice of two different dilutions
referred to as "x " potencies or "c " potencies.
The "x" potencies are sold commercially in health food
stores, etc. I have found that the c potencies are excellent for
home use, as their effect seems more pronounced than the commercial
preparations; many homeopathic doctors also prefer the potencies.
Homeopathic medicines are safe and produce no side effects. These
medicines are considered to be FDA approved, because they were
widely used in the U.S. earlier in the century and so were "grandfathered"
in to the FDA list of approved medical treatments; some home-opathic
remedies are sold in health food stores or can be obtained froin
a homeopathic doctor or catalog. Combining homeopathy with urine
therapy was, for me, incredibly effective for a wide variety of
serious disorders as well as for mild disorders such as headaches,
colds, indigestion, etc. For more information on using homeopathy
with urine therapy, you can also refer to the book I've written
Healing Yourself with Homeopathy.
External Use
Skin Applications
Applying urine to the skin is an excellent treatment for every
imaginable type of skin disorder including all rashes, eczema,
psoriasis, acne, etc. The urea in urine, as the research studies
demonstrated, is also excellent for cosmetic use as an overall
skin beautifier and moisturizer.
1. Use either fresh or old urine for skin applications, although
old urine has a higher ammonia content and has been found to be
more effective in treating many stubborn skin disorders such as
eczema or psoriasis.
2. When treating skin disorders such as eczema, psoriasis, rashes,
etc. pour a small amount of urine onto a cotton ball or pad and
pat or massage it lightly onto the affected area, making sure
that the area is well saturated.
3. Discard the pad and saturate another clean pad with fresh urine
and reapply, lightly patting and soaking the affected area. Continue
reapplying in this manner for 5-10 minutes or as many times as
desired - the more that the affected area is treated, the better.
4. Secure a clean soaked pad to the affected area with a gauze
or cotton ~vrap and leave secured for several hours for additional
healing. These urine packs are also incredibly effective for any
type of insect sting, bite or poison oak or ivy. (See Urine Packs
and Compresses).
5. Another method is to pour old or fresh urine into clean, plastic
spray bottle and spray the rash, eczema, etc.
Skin Massages
Always augment your use of oral urine therapy with skin massages
particuJariy on the face, neck and feet John Armstrong recommended
this practice especially when fasting for an acute condition,
and people who use it, swear by it. These massages have a tonifying,
refreshing, relaxing effect and are said to allow for gradual
absorption of urine nutrients through the skin. Pour either old
or fresh urine into a wide, shallow container and dip your hands
into the liquid. Shake off excess, then vigorously massage into
a small area of skin anywhere on the body until hands and skin
are dry. Rewet hands and begin massaging another area until dry;
repeat this step until all skin areas have been well massaged.
Rinse with warm water. Do not attempt these massages on extremely
elderly or infirm individuals. Also, make certain that you use
normal urine for massages. If your own urine is dark, turbid or
abnormal looking, wait until you have used the urine internally
over the course of two or three days, at which time the urine
usually appears clear and can then be used for massages. Urine
from a normal healthy person other than yourself may also be used
for your external massage. If you are a heavy smoker, or are taking
therapeutic or recreational drugs, do not use your own urine externally
or internally (or use only extremely small amounts).
COSMETIC APPLICATIONS
1. For cosmetic use or moisturizing, pour a very small amount
of nor mal fresh urine or urme which has been stored, for a day
or two into your hand and massage lightly into the skin until
dry; then pour additional urine into your hand, massage it into
another area of the skin until dry and so on.
2. Rinse well with warm water when completed, but wash without
soap. Your skin is naturally slightly addic, and this natural
aridity is usually destroyed by soaps which are all alkaline and
diminish the skin's natural protective add mantle.
3. You can apply a moLsturizer after the massage, but make sure
that it's a simple, natural one that doesn't contain lot of drying
alcohol or other chemicals. Also, you can add a few drops of urine
to a small amount of your moisturizing cream each time you apply
the cream.
As the research studies show, urea replenishes the water content
of the skin because it binds hydrogen and attracts moisture to
the skin in a way that no mineral oil or glycerin-based lotions
or creams can.
You 'll be absolutely amazed at the softness and beauty of your
skin after even one treatment with a urine massage. Old dead skin
immediately flakes away, and your skin becomes wonderfully soft,
rosy and with time, even wrinkles will disappear. Urine massages
have also been reported to eliminate varicose veins and cysts.
Urine Packs And Compresses
Skin Disorders
Urine packs give added healing to skin disorders such as eczema,
psoriasis, athlete's foot, ringworm, poison ivy and oak, etc.
in addition to urine massages and soaks;
1. Soak gauze bandages or cotton balls m fresh or old urine and
place them over the affected areas.
2. Cover the urine pack with light plastic (like Saran-wrap) and
tie in place with gauze strips.
3. Try to keep the pack on as long as possible, especially with
more, severe conditions. Add additional urine to the pack with
a medicine dropper every few hours to keep the pack wet.
Bites And Stings
Urine packs are tremendously useful and effective for relieving
the discomfort of all insect bites and stings.
When I first moved to Arizona, I was stung on the foot by a scorpion.
My foot immediately swelled to almost double its size and was
unbelievably painhil. I dragged myself into the house, applied
a soaked urine pack and tied it in place. Within 15 minutes, the
pain had disap-peared and the swelling had lessened considerably.
I kept the pack on overnight, and when I removed it in the morning,
the swelling and redness had completely disappeared. The pain
and irritation of bee stings and mosquito bites is also wonderfully
relieved by this method.
Snake Bite
Urine packs should also be used immediately for poisonous snake
bites. Follow emergency first-aid instructions to inrise the wound
and remove venom, if possible. Then apply fresh normal urine to
the wound and secure a well-soaked urine pack over it. Keep pack
wet until medical help can be obtained.
Growths And Tumors
Armstrong reported in great length on the remarkable effects of
urine compresses in reducing and eradicating a wide variety of
internal and external tumors, cysts and abnormal growths.
1. Compresses should be used in combination with internal urine
therapy for treating any type of abnormal growth.
2. In preparing a compress, use a thick pad of clean white folded
cotton material (such as an old T-shirt).
3. Soak the pad in a container of fresh or old urine. Warm the
urine by pouring it into a glass container, then place the jar
in a container of hot water. While lying down, place wet compress
over the affected area and cover with a clean folded towel. Keep
the compress applied for as long as possible, reapplying warm
urine as needed to keep the compress wet. Urine compresses have
also been reported to be effective for many internal disturbances
and for arthritic and rheumatic pains.
Wounds, Burns And Abrasions
As so many research and clinical studies have shown, urea is a
tremen-dously effective anti-bacterial agent and an excellent
healing treatment for wounds and burns of all types. Use fresh,
normal urine for treating open wounds.
1. Saturate a thick gauze bandage or cotton pad with fresh urine,
place it over the wound or bum and secure it with additional gauze;
cover with plastic or soft towel to prevent leakage.
2. Reapply fresh urine with clean medidne dropper directly onto
the existing inside compress. Reapply fresh compress as often
as possible. Urine is also known to prevent scarring, so keep
the urine pack applied as long or as often as possible until healing
is complete. Many people have applied urine compresses to burns
and cuts with amazing results. The pain is quickly relieved and
the burn or wound heals rapidly without scarring.
Eye And Nose Drops
There are reports from people who have used urme drops for both
eye and nose drops, for relief of eye itching or inflammation,
or for nasal congestion. In both cases, make certain that you
are using fresh, clear, normal urine only and that the acidity
factor of the urine is normal (see previous section on Monitoring
Your pH in this chapter). Also, make certain that the eye dropper
you use for the eye drops is sterilized. A compress of fresh normal
urine is also excellent for external eye inflammations such as
styles.
Questions:
1. Can my doctor administer urea, as the researchers in the
studies did?
The urine extract, urea, is FDA approved and can be administered
by your doctor. A Physician's Guide to Your Own Perfect Medicine
is available if your doctors would like additional information
contained in the research studies on the clinical application
of urea. As the research studies indicate, oral or injected urea
has been shown to be extremely effective and safe in treating
cases where excess fluid production is a problem (see pgs. 99-103).
Urea's anti-bacterial, anti-viral and diuretic properties. Using
urea in conjunction with natural urine therapy can be discussed
with your doctor, once he or she has been made aware of the research
findings relating to urea and urine therapy.
2. What about urine injections?
Many people have asked me about the efficacy of urine injections,
and as you've seen, many of the research studies presented in
Chapter 4 utilized injections of urine as part of the therapy.
But doctors have also used oral urine or urea therapy in non-emergency
cases with equally good results and urine injections have the
reported side effect of occasional redness and sweJling at the
site of the injection which doesn't occur, of course, with oral
therapy. Oral urine therapy also allows for slower application
and absorption which can decrease any possible de-toxifying symptoms.
Injections deliver an abrupt, forced introduction of medicinal
substances into the body, without allowing for the body's gradual
adjustment to the substance. However, there really isn't any need
for this sudden forcing of a medicinal substance into the body
unless there is an emergency situation. that requires it.
Gradual introduction of urine therapy, or any medical therapy
is always important, but even more so if you have a history of
poor nutrition or chronic, serious illnesses which weaken the
body and promote poisons and toxins in the system. Introducing
a new therapy too rapidly places a strain on an ah-eady weakened
system and can cause a sudden release of toxins that may make
you feel ill unnecessarily. As clinical studies have demonstrated,
oral urine or urea can be fust as effective for non-emergency
cases as injected urine. And, as doctors themselves have commented,
oral urine therapy can be used at safely and effectively at home
without the unnecessary cost- and inconvenience of a doctor's
office visit, while injections can be reserved for those with
urgent needs under a doctor's care. However, if your situation
is extremely severe, urine injections can definitely be of benefit.
Dr. William Hitt (whom f mentioned earlier) runs two urine therapy
cimics in Mexico and has administered hundreds of thousands of
injections to severely HI patients with remarkable success.
For more information on Dr. Hitt's clinics call 1-800-80Q-8849.
4. Can too much uric acid or urea be harmful?
As several of the dinical studies showed, urea, even in large
doses, has been found to be harmless to the body, Researchers,
(Urea - New Use of An Old Agent), reported that they safely administered
urea daily to several patients for a period ranging from several
day» to weeks, and in some cases, even several months, without
any side effects, in doses ranging from 100 mg. per kilogram of
body weight to as much as 600 mg. per kilogram of body weight.
Decaux, et. al, (5-Year Treatment of SIADH with Oral Urea), prescribed
30 grams/day for more than 5 years for a patient with excess water
and salt retention (hyponatremia), and occasionally prescribed
doses up to 60-90 grams per day for one or two days without side
effects. Normal urine contains approximately 2% urea, and you
normally excrete about 24.5 grams/day, which is well below the
dosages just mentioned. So even. ii you ingested all of the urine
you passed during the day, (approximately 25 grams of urea), this
amount is much less than the dosages mentioned above, especially
in view of the fact that you would not be ingesting all the urine
you pass every day for long periods of time. Uric acid, usually
thought to be a toxic waste product of the body, has been found
by researchers to actually be a natural body defense against cancer
and aging, allowing us to live much longer than other mammals
(Omni Magazine article, 1982). Most people think that uric add
causes gout, but strictly speaking, it is not the uric add alone
that causes the gout, but rather an overall, ongoing and chronic
overaridity in the body which can be caused by many different
factors including improper, overly-arid diet, kidney, liver and
adrenal disorders, obesity, diabetes, chronic stress, undereating
(anorexia), etc. Normally, the amount of uric add contained in
urine is not a problem during urine therapy, because the body
will excrete the amount it does not need. However, when the body's
ability to excrete excess acids is impaired, uric arid excretion
is, of course, also impaired. If you fed that you have a problem
with chronic, ongoing overacidity (see section on Monitoring Arid/Alkaline
Levels in this chapter), make certain that you decrease or eliminate
meat while using urine therapy. Also, improve your diet by eating
more alkaline foods, and decreasing arid foods before and after
you start on urine therapy. Monitor your add/alkaline level with
pH strips to determine when your pH has returned to a normal or
more balanced condition. In cases of chronic addosis (over-acidity),
do not do extended urine fasts or ingest large quantities over
long periods of time.
Use oral drops to begin; start with 1-2 drops once a day, and
gradually increase to 5-10 drops two to four times a day, for
one to three weeks, depending on your need. Monitor your pH levels
and your symptoms (see symptoms of addosis in this chapter). You
can also dilute the urine in water, or use a homeopathic preparation
of your urine.
5. How long should i use urine therapy?
The amount of time needed to achieve results with urine therapy
is different for every person and each condition. Many people
have found that chronic, long-standing complaints require a longer
period of time to heal, while others experience rapid resuite.
Logically speaking, it probably depends on the condition, of your
body's immune hunctions, ability to repair itself, amount of damage
to the body that has been sustained during illness, etc.
In general, do not use large amounts of urine infernally for more
than two to three weeks at a time. Once you have achieved solid
results at whatever dose you're taking, begin decreasing the amount
and number of days that you use the therapy internally, and use
only a maintenance dose from. then on, unless you come down with
a cold, infection, etc., at which time you would increase your
dosage amount and frequency during the period of illness. A maintenance
dose for many people is one to two ounces of morning urine per
day, although even 2-5 drops of morning urine per day or every
oiher day could be considered a good maintenance dose, especially
for those with acidosis or weak kidneys.
6. Can I do diagnostic urine tests at home?
There are several excellent urine testing kits that have been
developed in the last few years that can be used at home and can
save you an amazing amount of time and money. Now you can perform
many of the same urine tests at home that your doctor performs
in hia office. Also, these tests are particularly helpful when
using urine therapy because you can monitor your own health progress
easily and inexpensively. The booklet. Simple Diagnostic Tests
You Can Do at Home gives a wide range of information. on what
tests are available, how to use them, and how to interpret these
tests. The booklet also explains how to interpret your urine color
and appearance which are important additional indicators of health
conditions.
8. Can pets be treated with urine therapy?
Many of the research tests on urine recycling have been undertaken
with animals, and vetermarians have used urine therapy for treatment
by catherizing the arumal and administering oral urine drops with
reportedly good results.
Urine home test strips are available to test for these conditions
and many others:
o Kidney and Urinary Tract Infections
o Diabetes
o Blood in the urine
o Pregnancy
o Ovulation
o Liver Function
You can purchase these strips in drug- stores or they are available
by catalog
Summary
Remember to begin your treatment slowly with a few oral drops
and increase the amount to a well-tolerated dosage. Make sure
that you're eating well and decreasing your meat intake as you
increase your urine intake. Do not use the therapy while ingesting
heavy amounts of nicotine, caffeine or while using recreational
drugs or therapeutic drugs than small amounts. If you do decide
to use it, however, use only very small amounts (3-5 drops 1x
day.) Frequent small doses of one to three ounces for two to three
weeks can be extremely effective; larger amounts can be taken
for several days if needed and if you have no history or presence
of kidney disease; gradually decrease the amount once your symptoms
have abated and healing is apparent. Drink as much water as you
feel thirsty for, and keep weli-hydrated, but do not force-drink
large amounts oi fluid during the therapy. Do not fast for long
periods of time without competent, professional supervision. Daily
maintenance doses vary from a few drops to one to two ounces of
morning urine, depending on your sensitivity and preference.
The Do's And Don'ts of Urine Therapy (UT)
Do:
1. Start with small amounts and work up to larger amounts gradually
for internal use.
2. Use only fresh, urine internally.
3. Test your pH to make certain that you are not overly acidic
before using the therapy and continue to monitor your pH periodically
during internal use of UT.
Do not:
1. Rush into the therapy with large amounts.
2. Do Not combine urine therapy with a starvation diet
(or fasting) unless you have been using the therapy for at least
two months.
3. Do Not continue to work while fasting on UT. If you
are ingesting large amounts of UT and fasting, you must rest and
relax in order to avoid possibly stressing the kidneys.
4. Do Not ingest large amounts while eating a consistently
acidic diet. |
