Urine Therapy For Acne - Not For The Faint Hearted

If you're strong of stomach (or desperate!) you may be interested in reading up on urine therapy. Some acne sufferers swear by it. It's been used by them both topically, and by drinking it. Eew, I know :-)

Generally, the first morning's urine is used, and it is taken from midstream. The idea is that the waste is eliminated first, according to what I read in Nexus years ago. It has a rather unique taste, as you can imagine, so people often mix it in apple juice or something similar. Cold apple juice may take some of the warmth off fresh urine too. Warm urine would probably have a much stronger mental association with where it came from.

One woman wrote about applying it to her acne at night, though she did say her husband objected somewhat. Quite a number of people have reported success by applying it to their acne. I would think there are a lot of other things you can try first, but that is just personal choice. There are certainly a lot of other very effective natural acne remedies.

Wikipedia does report that urine is sterile, so is unlikely to cause harm.
