A beauty hack and a cure for cancer?

In case you don't believe her, she demonstrates her beauty tip onscreen - holding out a cup while her dog pees then guzzling down the cup of fresh urine without flinching.

She also says dog urine 'has been proven to help cure cancer' but we don't think she has any actual proof of this.

An ancient practice

In fact, apart from the fact it is justgenerally gross, health experts advise that drinking urine could be very dangerous for human health. Whilst 'urine therapy' - the practice of drinking human or dog urine - has been around since ancient times, drinking dog urine could be especially dangerous because of herbicides that are found in it.

It goes without saying, we're certainly NOT recommending this one. We'll stick to more traditional acne remedies, thanks Lynn...
