A 91-year old man admits to drinking his own urine from a tumbler every morning and says it is the biggest reason why he was able to survive his age, absolutely healthy, according to Daily Mail.
Mark Ambrose insists too that drinking his urine has helped him look ten years younger than his actual age and has helped him maintain an active lifestyle. Mark lives with his 87-year old partner, Joyce in the south of Spain. Ambrose also dabs his urine on his wounds and believes that his elixir has healing properties. "Joyce and I both have serious health problems which have to be coped with", Mark told Mail Online.
"Nonetheless, we lead a very active life with friends saying I look a lot less than my age, and my partner possessing remarkable energy and looking no more than 65 to 70 years of age." "As far as I am concerned, I am convinced that urine therapy, which I started practicing over three years ago, is mainly responsible for my younger appearance", Ambrose added. He confessed that he gained knowledge about the said healthy therapy as he was surfing the internet in search for a cure for his back pain.
"I had already gone three lumbar operations in the United Kingdom and in Spain with the specialists admitting they could do nothing more for me apart from trying out different painkilling medicines. With nothing to lose, I thought I'd try the therapy to help obtain a better quality of life for my remaining years", he added. Although it may sound absurd, urine therapy is actually not a new form of treatment and is used by humans even as far back as the time of the Bible. Aztecs used urine to disinfect their wounds and its benefits have also been mentioned in both Chinese and Indian literature.
