There are references in the classical texts of Ayurveda on urines from eight animals, including from humans [18], [19]. Their properties and activities are different based on the source. A very interesting reference to human urine as a treatment of cancer is described in a manuscript – Bhrigu Samhita. The shlokas run like this: “After going to the urinal, one should collect one’s midstream urine in a clean vessel. One should take 1 to 2 tola of urine on a fasting stomach for the duration of one mandal (circa 42 days). The regimen of pathya diet and healthy life style has to be followed” [20]
