Urine therapy is a potent method of restoring health and balance. Many people have reported that UT has kepled when all else has failed. This is an excellent adjunct to a proper diet such as raw vegan and other healthy practices.

URINE & UREA Therapy

By Walter Last

I have been fond of urine therapy for many years
but, except as a homoeopathic remedy, I have rarely mentioned it to
patients as our social conditioning invariably prompted a strong
negative reaction.

The many and varied case histories described by John Armstrong in his 'The Water of Life'
are certainly impressive. However, this book was first published fifty
years ago, Armstrong did not have any academic qualifications and
without the strong support of other therapists, there were not many
convincing reasons for patients to try this method.

This has changed dramatically in recent years
with the publication of the books 'The Miracle of Urine Therapy' by Dr
Beatrice Bartnett and especially 'Your Own Perfect Medicine' by Martha Christy.

Martha Christy's Experience

Martha Christy cured herself of a host of
incapacitating illnesses, including intestinal inflammation or Crohn's
disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, thyroid disorder, severe chronic
kidney infections, food and chemical allergies and severe
endometriosis.

The conventional approach with drugs and six
operations did not help and probably intensified her problems. Natural
therapies worked for a while, but a difficult pregnancy disabled her
again and this time even the natural therapy she tried was not good
enough, including $US 15,000 spent in an alternative cancer clinic in
Mexico for bleeding pelvic tumours.

Most of the time she had to stay in bed until
one day she was introduced to urine therapy and before long, all her
health troubles were over.

Instead of just writing another 'How I Did It'
book, she went to university libraries and hired a research firm to
search the scientific and medical literature for publications on the
use of urine and products derived from it.

She was amazed by what she found. There were
not just hundreds but rather thousands of published articles. There are
probably more articles published about urea, the main ingredient of
urine, than about any other organic substance. Mrs Christy devoted a
large part of her book to explaining and summarising this scientific
and medical evidence and also provided detailed references of published
papers.

In addition, she lists many testimonials of
individuals as to the effectiveness of urine therapy in overcoming
AIDS, Candida, Cancer, Colitis, Depression, Diabetes, Immune
deficiency, Multiple Sclerosis and other diseases.

Scientific Evidence

The most amazing aspect of urine therapy is its effectiveness in such a wide range of different diseases.

There are several reasons for this. For one,
urine contains antibodies and immune stimulating factors against all
viruses, harmful bacteria or fungi that we may harbour in our body. The
researchers stated that even minute amounts of antibodies, sometimes so
low that they cannot be detected with conventional methods, are
effective in preventing and treating diseases.

There are reports investigating and describing
the curative effects of urine therapy on a wide range of infectious,
fungal and viral infections, such as hepatitis, poliomyelitis and AIDS.
Urine is especially effective against allergies, auto-immune diseases
and other disorders of the immune system.

To switch off an allergic reaction one must put
a few drops of urine under the tongue, collected during the reaction,
or the urine may be homoeopathically diluted and some of it kept in the
mouth for a few minutes.

When drinking urine routinely, allergic
reactions may not occur at all, thus doing away with the need to
identify which substance one has been reacting to.

Curing Cancer 'Child's Play'!

Cancer, too, responds very well to urine therapy. Most effective appears to be the urine fast employed by Armstrong.

His first cancer patient was a nurse who had
herself cared for over fifty cancer patients. She knew that any cancer
pain is mild as compared to that experienced from the regrowth commonly
occurring after medical intervention.

Usually visible tumours such as with breast
cancer disappeared within three weeks, but sometimes even in one week.
Armstrong called curing cancer 'child's play' except if patients had
already received chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

I also know personally of several cases of
cancer cures exclusively or mainly due to urine therapy; sometimes the
addition of urine therapy to a natural cancer program appeared to be
responsible for the successful outcome.

Most of the scientific cancer reports
concentrate on urine extracts of anti-cancer agents. One such extract
is called H-11, another HUD, others Retine, DHEA hormone or
Anti-neoplaston.

While good results were reported with all of
these, it is very expensive to treat patients in this way and the
treatment would be even more effective and much cheaper if all of these
cancer-fighting ingredients of urine were used together by ingesting
whole urine.

Surprisingly, uric acid is not just the villain
causing gout, it is also a proven anti-cancer agent and rejuvenating
factor. However, the crown of the cancer-fighting urine ingredients may
actually belong to urea, the most common chemical in urine.

Benefits of Urea

Only recently has it been discovered that the
concentration of urea in the blood has a key role in regulating at
least 7 major pathways. Urea levels are low with cancer and many other
diseases. The frequency of cancer and especially of multiple tumours
and metastases increases greatly if urea levels are low.

Urea is not just a waste product or the end
state of the protein metabolism as commonly assumed. Biochemical
research has shown that urea, both from internal sources or externally
supplied, is used by the body as a raw material to synthesise amino
acids and proteins.

This is especially important for patients with
kidney failure. These deteriorate quickly on a diet containing normal
amounts of protein, but do much better if the diet is extremely low in
protein, below 20g per day.

Another research report states that patients
with kidney failure on very low protein intake show progressive
clinical improvement when receiving added urea which then becomes the
main source of nitrogen for protein synthesis. Urea may thus be the
main reason why urine therapy and especially urine fasts are so
successful with kidney failure.

I believe that it is the best and sometimes the
only successful therapy. One of my patients with kidney failure
continued to deteriorate on a fast of fresh vegetable juices, but was
cured when fasting on urine for 2 weeks.

Another helpful factor is the role of urea as
the best natural diuretic and far better than synthetic ones. This is
not only important for those with deem or fluid retention because of
kidney or heart weakness but especially with fluid pressure on the
brain or spinal cord or in the eye with glaucoma.

With this, additional urea is important with
brain tumours, stroke, meningitis and other inflammations of the brain
and spinal cord. One report cites the case of a massive brain tumour
reappearing 3 months after surgical removal of another brain tumour.
The patient received 256ml of 30% urea. After 2 hours the tumour had
completely disappeared.

When applied externally, urea has a very
beneficial effect on wound healing, including infected wounds, burns
and ulcerating tumours. The urea crystals may be directly packed into
the wound or a strong or saturated solution may be applied. In this
way, urea removes the foul odour often associated with an ulcerating
tumour or other dead or putrefying tissue.

Urea Pioneer

The use of urea in cancer treatment was
pioneered by E V Danopoulos, a Professor of Internal Medicine in
Athens. Urea was notably effective with liver cancer and in preventing
the development of metastases or secondary tumours. He used 45g of urea
daily in 6 divided doses for 40 days and then 20g in 3 doses for 2
years. 45g corresponds to 6 rounded teaspoons, while 20g is about 3
teaspoonfuls. The results were published in The Lancet in 1974.

But as it happens so often with discoverers of
cheap cancer cures, Danopoulos lost his position after this publication
and was forced to retire. Other research has shown that the
effectiveness of urine in killing microbes depends largely on its
concentration of urea and is better, the higher it is in urea.

Other Beneficial Ingredients

Another important reason for the effectiveness
of urine is its content of countless hormones, enzymes, vitamins, trace
minerals and other valuable biochemical. Some companies make a fortune
by extracting some of these substances from collected urine on a large
scale. The fact is that urine is not a waste product full of harmful
substances as is commonly believed, but instead a treasure-trove of
just the right bio-chemicals that we need for our condition.

The main function of the kidneys is to regulate
the concentration of all these countless bio-chemicals in our blood.
Any unwanted surplus is as harmful as any deficiency. However, any
hormone or enzyme removed as surplus at one time may be in short supply
a few hours later.

Furthermore, with advancing age, our hormone
and enzyme production declines to sub-optimal levels while the kidneys
become less and less efficient in retaining needed ingredients.

Therefore, it greatly helps, especially with
chronic degenerative diseases and advancing age to recycle these
valuable hormones and enzymes.

Urine Rejuvenates

Urine ingestion is frequently praised as
possibly the best rejuvenation therapy known to us. It certainly
rejuvenates the hair and the skin. The youthful appearance of many
Buddhist monks is ascribed to their routine urine ingestion.

It seems that historically all cultures have
used urine for medicinal purposes. It is praised in ancient Egyptian
papyri, was used in ancient Rome, in China, India, America as well as
European countries. The Journal of the American Medical Association
states that in 'primitive medicine' there is scarcely a disease that
has not been treated with the external or internal use of urine.

A 5000 year old Sanskrit text describes in a
religious context in 107 verses the virtues of urine. In one verse Lord
Shiva, the great destroyer and re-generator, says that he who drinks
urine sweetened with honey is cleared of any ailment within 6 months.
He attains brilliant brain power and his voice becomes melodious.

One well-known urine ingredient is melatonin,
the hormone of the pineal gland. It regulates our body rhythms linked
to the dark-light cycle. It is produced in the night and mostly
expelled with the morning urine. However it is now highly valued as
protecting us from cancer and ageing. Melatonin sales in California are
said to top aspirin sales. But why pay much money for just one
beneficial ingredient when there are thousands for free?

Problems may arise from ingesting large amounts
of urine if one takes medicinal or recreational drugs as these drugs
may be recycled and cause an overdose. The same may happen if one
ingests other toxic substances. However, harmful substances are not
necessarily reabsorbed and may just cause diarrhoea instead.

How to Use Urine

There are various ways to use urine but
generally it is advisable to start with small amounts. This is not only
to get accustomed to the taste of it, but also to slow down any healing
reactions. These occur commonly with methods that genuinely improve our
health.

Reactions may manifest as diarrhoea, vomiting,
nausea or a temporary flare-up of old health problems prior to their
final elimination.

Start with a few drops or a teaspoonful. These
may be swallowed immediately and you may wash it down with some water
or juice or eat a piece of fruit. However, with allergies and immune
disorders it is more effective to leave the diluted urine under the
tongue for a few minutes.

An allergic reaction can best be stopped or
neutralised by collecting the urine when the symptoms are worst,
however in practice you try to use it as soon as you notice the first
symptoms.

Some researchers suggest that the proper dose
can be found by slowly putting single drops under the tongue until the
taste and temperature of a drop can no longer be distinguished. This is
then the neutralising dose. Each subsequent day you may double the
previous dose or the number of times you take them per day until you
reach your target amount or the dose that you are comfortable with.

A suggested amount for general health
improvement and rejuvenation are 2 or 3 cupfuls daily. More is
advisable temporarily to overcome serious diseases, especially AIDS and
other viral, bacterial or fungal infections, cancer and kidney
diseases.

In these cases ingest about one litre, the more
the better, while for a limited period, say several weeks, try to drink
all or most of your urine, except in the evening so that you do not
have to get up at night. However, that may only be suitable during a
cleansing period, as drinking a large amount or strong urine after a
meal may cause digestive upset.

My favourite way to flush the kidneys is to
drink 1 to 2 litres of urine before breakfast. Start drinking all the
urine when you first wake up, lets say around 5 o'clock. Then you may
urinate again and drink another lot about 6.30 and then again at 8
o'clock. Either drink sufficient in the evening so that the first
morning urine is not too concentrated or otherwise dilute strong urine
with sufficient water. I do not use urine that is cloudy as it easily
happens during a healing reaction. If the body is reasonably clean,
then the urine does not taste offensive and reflects the aromas of the
previous meal. The second morning urine, especially after drinking a
fair amount of liquids after rising, is usually very mild and better to
get accustomed to then the first morning urine.

The Urine Fast

The most powerful form of urine therapy is a
urine fast which combines two of the most effective natural healing
methods, urine therapy and fasting. This is the method routinely used
by John Armstrong and described in his book The Water of Life.
Armstrong had amazing results with this method and I also found it very
effective. A main advantage of a urine fast over a water fast is a
greatly increased amount of energy so that the fast can be continued
for a much longer period. I believe that it is also more effective than
a fast or cleanse on vegetable juices.

During the urine fast you drink all of your
freshly voided urine and initially some added water to bring the daily
volume to about 5 litres. However, I suggest to gradually increase the
ingested amount to full intake already before starting the fast while
gradually reducing the food intake to just a few pieces of fruit or
vegetable salad and fresh vegetable juices.

It is possible that this combination, a small
amount of fresh fruit or vegetables and juices together with ingesting
almost all of your urine is already sufficient to cure your problem. If
after a week or two you feel that you do not make enough progress, you
may then proceed with a strict urine fast for 1-4 weeks.

You end the fast by using again only a small
amount of fresh raw fruit or vegetables for another week or two,
gradually increasing the amount and variety of fresh food.

As with all fasts or cleanses, it is important
to keep the bowels moving daily. Initially I suggest using a tablespoon
of Epsom salts together with a crushed clove of garlic for several
mornings or evenings when starting with a greatly restricted food
intake.

This will help to avoid or minimise unpleasant
cleansing symptoms, such as weakness, pain or nausea. However, in many
cases the ingested urine will already over-stimulate the bowels with
liquid discharges and then no further action is needed.

Ingest only your own freshly voided urine.
Normally urine is light yellow, clear and sterile, especially if
collected mid-stream, but during reactions it may become offensive and
cloudy. When ingesting a large part of your urine you should check to
make sure that it is not too acid. The morning urine normally is
slightly acid, but during the day it should be slightly alkaline.

You can buy litmus or pH paper from a chemist.
Litmus paper is red when dipped into an acid solution and blue when
alkaline, neutral or pH 7 is in between both colours. With pH paper you
get a colour chart to compare. If the urine remains acid during the
day, which usually happens with allergies and a weak sugar metabolism
or if eating much fruit, then take 1/2 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate
once or several times daily in water, but not within 3 hours after
meals, until the urine remains alkaline during the day.

However, those with cancer should use potassium
bicarbonate (from a chemist) instead of sodium bicarbonate. If the body
is too acid, sometimes the emotions become overly sensitive with a
tendency to inflammations, mouth ulcers and strong skin reactions.

With cancer, oedema and infectious diseases the
effectiveness of urine therapy can be increased by taking daily 1-6
teaspoons of urea (e.g. in water or juices) in divided doses; you may
take 3-6 teaspoons when only a small amount of urine is ingested and
progressively less with larger urine intakes, leaving it off completely
when nearly half or more of the daily urine is ingested.

Homoeopathic Urine

A final possibility is to use urine in homoeopathic form.

The simplest way to prepare it is as follows:

To one teaspoon of unchlorinated water add one
drop of fresh urine. Shake it vigorously in a small bottle about 50
times with a sharp downward stroke. One drop of this mixture is then
added to another teaspoon of water, shaken again and then the whole
procedure repeated a third time. Place 3 drops under the tongue several
times daily. When it is used up, wait a few days and then prepare a new
homoeopathic remedy. In order to find the most effective potency add
one more step to each subsequent preparation of the remedy, that is
dilute it a fourth, a fifth and a sixth time and so forth. Start with
such higher dilutions, say sixth potency, especially if a remedy is
made from fluid such as pus derived from a diseased part of the body.

An alternative method is even simpler and
recommended as an introduction to urine therapy and at times when
cupfuls of urine are not tolerated.

To 1 tablespoon of morning urine add 4 or 9
tablespoons of unchlorinated water. Shake 50 times with a sharp
downward stroke, and take a spoonful several times during the day; keep
in the mouth for a minute before swallowing.

Homoeopathically energised remedies should not
be exposed to strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields. Keep this
urine remedy only lightly covered in a cool place but not in an
electric refrigerator, and make up fresh daily.

Social Considerations

The main problem when starting urine therapy is
our social conditioning. You may overcome that by reading and
contemplating about the expected health benefits.

The taste of urine is not normally offensive,
except if the body is rather polluted or when fasting or with strongly
concentrated urine. Therefore, dilute strong urine, start with a small
and gradually increasing amounts or have a day on fruit before starting
to ingest urine. Minimise salt and strong spices in the diet when on
urine therapy.

An easy way to drink urine or any other
unpleasant fluid for beginners is by breathing only through the mouth
and possibly pinching the nose until the mouth has been rinsed with
water or juice or a piece of fruit may be eaten.

External Use

For skin problems such as burns, wounds,
gangrene, psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, fungus problems ageing skin as
well as over inner tumours, inflammations and diseased organs a urine
or urea pack or a combination of both is very effective: keep the
affected area covered with a folded cloth well moistened with urine or
concentrated urea solution, put another cloth or plastic sheet on top,
renew several times daily.

Urine becomes more alkaline when standing for a
few hours and is then more effective than fresh urine for external
applications. However it also smells much more and fresh urine seems to
be adequate in my experience. With gangrene, dead flesh, skin
infections and open cancer and ulcer sores it is even more effective to
saturate the applied urine with urea, that also removes offensive
odours. With weeping or suppurating wounds, especially if associated
with foul odour, it is also very beneficial to cover the area with dry
urea crystals.

Urine can be concentrated by leaving it for
several hours in a flat dish in the sun or a warm place. This has been
recommended by Armstrong for friction rubs to rejuvenate ageing skin.
Armstrong also recommended urine packs over tumour sites or diseased
organs in addition to rubbing the body daily for two hours with small
amounts of urine.

The main problem with urine packs is the
offensive odour. You may try to prevent it by sealing the pack with a
good tape, such as duct tape. You may completely seal it and keep the
pack moist by injecting fresh urine several times a day with a syringe.
