By way of clarification, I was referring to the ever-growing fascination
with far-eastern medicine and practice, not making a sweeping statement
about race. I save those for other threads ;-)

Apparently it's good for your skin too (dabbed on, not drunk). The urea is
meant to be the good ingredient. Check any fancy skin creams you may have
(or see on supermarket shelves), they regularly have urea in them.

I assure you, I neither practice nor preach that particular activity,
unless you count peeing in a wetsuit after swimming on a cold day's
canoeing (just wash it well afterwards), but I've not done any such thing
for many years. It's too hot for wetsuits over here and I wear dry suit
trousers in Scotland; peeing in those is a definite no-no!

I'm led to believe intaking urea over time can lead to kidney failure,
though I'm sure dabbing it on the skin is fine. I remember also reading in
a book when I was younger some anecdotel story about peeing in your boots
stops something......

Blisters I think. I remember hearing of a wicket keeper who'd heard of this
trick, so to prevent his hands blistering he soaked his hands in a bowl of
his pee :-/

So nobody told him that surgical spirit does the same then :)

Given the taste of Tennent's lager, I think it's already arrived... :)

An old boy I know though he is well past 3 score and ten still thinks
he is a bit of a charmer.
Complimenting a young woman on her looks he was a bit thrown by her
reply of "I Drink my own urine".
He was even more thoughtful when it was suggested she was taking the
****.
