Let's Get Pissed

Dr Banchob, started recommending urine therapy a few months ago, instructing patients to collect their own urine in the morning and drink it untreated, starting with small amounts and progressing to a glassful a day.

"Urine treatment is Chinese traditional medicine, and popular in Japan and some traditional believe in India."

One the the original FGs, Guy Jean,is already practicing this treatment.

BTW: "Dr Banchob" sounds a lot like a offkey anagram of Dr. Ramchop.

The article says it is popular in Japan? No wonder there was this elderly Japanese lady who had maintain her beauty so well claimed that she took her own urine too. Some of you might know her face, she had a very 'white' face, often appear in the TV before she died (maybe last year ,not very sure of when excactly)

Her name was Sonoko Suzuki.
A real wacko who laughed all her way to the bank/grave
Let's FREAKO white!

To quote the now-also-dead Hiragana Times article:

Beautiful, pale skin which doesn't have any wrinkles or moles, or achieving this kind of look. Women who let their faces tan during the tanning boom are now worried about the risk of wrinkles in the future, and they are eager to return to a pale look. Because of this, cosmetic products (called "whitening"), designed to enhance the bihaku look, have hit the market in quick succession and become big hits. However, it was one Sonoko Suzuki who accelerated this boom. In 1980 she published a best-selling book called "People Who Want to Diet Should Eat", and her diet methods spread by word of mouth from the entertainment world down to ordinary people. Her diet foods have continued to sell despite being expensive. It's probably fair to say that she's also noticed for her odd appearance, since she plasters the makeup on to make her face white. Even though she is now in her late sixties, she recently set tongues wagging by appearing in a swimsuit. Bihaku power is truly awesome.

Her support for urine drinking and her breathariandiet had more to do with her demise than the official "claim" that she died of pneumonia. Hmmmmmmmmm

Known for her whiter-than-white makeup, Suzuki was at the height of her popularity when she died of pneumonia last December, aged 68.

Suzuki penned best-selling books such as "Eat More If You Want Be Slim" and "Miracle Diet," while appearing on TV shows as a cosmetics guru.

She established in 1974 her cosmetics and food company, which raked in a turnover of around 9 billion yen in the last year she was alive. (Mainichi Shimbun, Nov. 20, 2001)
