Cow’s urine has been described in Ayurveda as a therapeutic agent. Gomutra is used as a cure for various diseases such as anaemia 5.6, jaundice 7, rakta pitta 8, heart diseases 9, piles 10 and hoarseness of voice II as the main treatment or as anupan, i.e. as a base for other plant derived drugs or minerals such as loha-bhasma or loha-churna.

**The healing properties of cow urine have been referred to in the ancient texts of Ayurveda, India’s natural medicine. However ancient times were witness to happier grass fed cows. Drinking the urine of today’s cattle that feeds on plastics and other waste will likely translate to imbibing huge amounts of toxins!
