Dr. David Jubb is probably the most famous advocate of this particular medicinal practice that was originated in China. It is used for relief from toxicity and cancer. He was previously an advisor to famous Anne Wigmore (founder Hippocrates Health Institute) who pioneered the raw food movement and cured herself from a death verdict and lived for another 30 years. Dr. Jubb holds several academic degrees, is a well acclaimed author and also has his own TV show. However, a few years ago,(2/2007) his son, Dakota, was seized by Child Protective Services of New York City. Apparently, Dr. Jubb failed to bring his son to the hospital for an ankle injury. It is also suspected that he may have been feeding Dakota with the same urine therapy. However, he does remain a strong raw food advocate. He claims that his diet is not only urine, he also eats just a little. In fact, he wrote a book, Cell Rejuvenation, Colloidal Biology: a Symbiosis about urine therapy. Supposedly, fasting and urine therapy create an cellular environment that allows elements to "transmutate" into one another. Frankly, I do not believe that elements transmute into each other. It really goes against my scientific training. Supposedly, UT also creates an environment that allows greater oxygen and carbon in the cellular space that allows for glucose and amino acids to be absorbed more readily. Supposedly it helps to heal cancer. More can be read here tribe.net Since Dr. Jubb is a physiologist this obviously makes a lot of sense to him. However, it certainly does not have much mass appeal. Frankly, I think he should have stayed simply with raw foods. However, he does look extremely fit and does observe this dietary regime. Other vegans have run afoul of the law and have had their children removed. However, there is a famous couple, Storm and Jinjee Talifero, who have raised their 5 children on a vegan diet, but who are intelligent enough to breastfeed their children for a few years.

I might mention that the cow, which is so sacred in India, has other benefits besides the milk she supplies for our wonderful milk, yogurt, ice cream and butter. Cow urine is antiseptic. And cow dung is wonderfully aromatic when it is burnt. It is also used for building in India. so you see, that is why the cow is considered such a wonderful animal. It is,furthermore, Krsna's favorite pet.For more information about the therapeutic uses of cow urine, visit Dr Jain's website.
