Urine for Beauty and Health?

Urine for Beauty and Health?

Some individuals believe that consuming urine or applying it topically can have various beauty benefits as well as alleviate a wide range of health issues, including autoimmune diseases and cancer. Additionally, they suggest that applying urine to the skin can improve conditions like psoriasis, eczema, and acne. The premise is that urine collected during the morning's first urination, known as "midstream urine," contains beneficial hormones that accumulate overnight. It's important to note that these claims lack scientific backing, and the broader medical community does not endorse these practices. Moreover, consuming urine can be potentially harmful if it introduces toxins or pathogens back into the body. In contrast to these unconventional uses, urine is mainly considered a waste product by the medical community, meant to be eliminated from the body.
