" Take a Whiz and Cure Fungalized Feet "

By Chet Day

Anyone who reads my health writings knows I have an

overly-developed sense of humor, so let me preface

today's health tip by saying that I'm not joking with

what you're about to read.

With that said, I've been researching some natural foot

fungus remedies lately. Well, the other day, a new

suggestion came in from a friend of mine, a licensed

pharmacist whose avocation lies with helping his clients

by referring them whenever possible to natural solutions

rather than to strong drugs.

He doesn't make as much money this way, of course, but he

helps more people and makes a lot of friends, and that's

what it's all about anyway, near as I can tell.

Okay, here's what my buddy told me in his letter:

" Hey, Chet, between you, me, and the printer cable, the

fastest and cheapest and most effective way to go after

good ole foot fungus... your own urine. I know peeing on

your feet in the shower sounds whacked, but I have used

it effectively and passed it out dozens of times from

behind the Prozac counter. And with a host of positive

feedback. "

Well, I was glad to get this fascinating suggestion from

my friend because I've always been interested in urine. I

mean, seriously, with so much of it coming out of us

every day, how can we not be?

Although I don't have space to write an epistle on this,

I do want to say that, contrary to the bad press it gets,

human urine is sterile and not something filthy that we

should cringe about when we mention its name.

I mean seriously, my pharmacist friend and I aren't

recommending that you drink the stuff, though people in

India have been doing just that for thousands of years

for apparently good reasons. But that's another story.

Anyway, if you have a nasty case of foot fungus and want

to try the easiest and least expensive home remedy I'm

currently aware of, pour or pee some of your own urine on

the problem in the shower, let it set for a minute or

two, and then wash it off. Repeat as necessary whenever

you shower until the problem heals.

By the way, after reading this tip, Linda S wrote, " There

is another less offensive remedy. For real. Soak a cup

of corn meal in warm to very warm water for about an

hour, then soak the affected area in the 'meal water.'

This can be done while watching you favorite tv show in

the evening. Repeat as necessary. Supposedly, two to

three times in a week should do the trick.

Nothing wastes more energy than worrying - the longer a problem is

carried, the heavier it gets. Don't take things too seriously - live a

life of serenity, not a life of regrets.

This had me saying ewwwwwwwwww lol. I find it hard to believe that

urine is sanitary upon leaving your body. It seems to me that if you

had an kidney/bladder infection of some kind (and alot of infections

go undetected) that you may as well soak your toes in the toilet that

needs to be flushed lol. I know that at one time in human history

people used urine for all kinds of things, but our bodies and systems

are wayyyyyy different then they were back then. I think I'd have to

stick to the old vicks vapor rub cure or straight tea tree oil for

foot fungus.

I work with inmates here in CA, and I have heard that this method is widely practiced. Limited resources and necessity being a mother and all in that setting. I have had several tell me that this is a sure fire remedy.

I don't like to think about it, but if you've ever taken any desert survival training, one of the first things they teach you is to collect your own urine to drink to stave off dehydration.
