Urine Luck! Controversial video of drinking pee for the good of your health goes viral

[webfact]

An old video featuring Sondhi Limthongkul delivering health advice on drinking your urine has resurfaced online. In the video, he promotes urine therapy as a method for maintaining one’s health and treating illnesses. Debates have ensued questioning the efficacy and safety of the practice.

 

In the video, Sondhi Limthongkul, a prominent Thai personality, discussed maintaining one’s health with the controversial method of urine therapy. He recommends using urine for colds and applying it to sores on the top of the head.

The video has regained attention after former politician and soapy king Chuwit Kamolvisit shared it on Facebook. In his post, he questions the credibility of Sondhi’s advice and even mockingly wonders if excrement can also be used as a treatment for ailments. He said…

“If someone’s gums hurt from talking too much, can they apply excrement and get better?”

Urine contains the waste products of metabolism. Urea. Sticking it back into your body after it's been removed just means you have to work your kidneys harder to get it out again.  Seriously,bodily wastes do not improve health.

I guess a bottle of Leo would do the same trick. Tastes the same maybe a little worse.

But I guess you don't need an erection if you smell of urine from your mouth....no one want to come close to you

Can't see how drinking something your body is trying to get rid of can be good for you

[owl sees all]

Been there and partly done it. Not stages 3 and 4 of the 'urine therapy for good health'.

 

Amandha Vollmer is the cookie. She has promoted urine all over Nth America.

Golden showers are also good for the skin, so I'm told ????

Seems as thought the entire point of the OP went over the heads of everyone, so far, or maybe they just can't read...

Looking at that "boat-race" he needs to check his PH levels.

I would say he just did a urine slammer and took a  bite into the lemon before the lick of salt.

I think they can read perfectly well, but it happens a lot on ASEAN NEWS doesn't it.

Read headline, - jump to conclusion, - compose answer. There, you have it in a nutshell. ????

Although I do my best to maintain good health, there are some depths I will not stoop to. Even if it were true, which it is likely not. There is so much nonsense online these days, one has to ignore most of it.

Urotherapy is certainly not for gout sufferers.

making someone drink urine should be considered ABUSE

Drinking pee became quite popular for a while in Taiwan some years ago but that popularity faded as people began to realize it wasn't helping cure their various ailments.

Have you heard ??  "Thai Chi" has quite a bit of "kick" in it. ????

????

Poot len len.    Just joking.

Not as funny as  the  play on words in the title "Urine luck".

[scottiejohn]

So how many of us on this forum are "really taking the piss?

Or just pissing about?

It probably is ,  did someone tell you otherwise ?  Maybe when you were younger , have you just been "triggered"   The use of capitals implies some angst.  Come on tell us all what they made you do I'm sure you'll get some sympathy
