Medicines From India

India’s thinkers are ahead of their time. Making medicines out of manure from their bovine. Urine too has a place of honor in their lab. They use it in treatments, but please do not blab. I would like to meet the brilliant thinker of the day. Who decided poop and urine might be the way. To cure some diseases – was this idea heaven-sent? Or were they just lucky their mind was so bent?

Remember to wash your hands with urine three times a day. Cheaper than soap!

Oh my! I didn't realize that. You learn something every day. Remind me to be careful about what medicines from India I use....hmmm, don't think I take any.

I read this and said to myself "what?" but it is in a reference book for students, so I have no reason to doubt because it was not published by FOX news.
