When I www as young and doing martial arts training I could easily rise from the floor with just my legs from a cross-legged position. My legs would untwist and raise me up almost like a scissor lift as I spun around. I would do it multiple times a day after getting up from floor exercises. That was around 30 years ago though. No way could I do that today. ---

Hey, urine is a healthy tonic, at least according to enthusiastic urine drinkers the world over, notably in India, where urine from the sacred cow is regarded as a cure for many (all?) diseases. > [@](#): > > Among all the potential products of cow, cow urine of indigenous breed has an exceptionally mystifying therapeutic applications and importance in-depth in ancient scriptures, Ayurvedic texts, Puranas, Upanishads, and contemporary literatures such as Susruta Samhita, Astanga Sangrah, Bhav Prakash Nighantu, Rig Veda, Charak Samhita, Dammartantra, etc., which emphasized cow urine (Gomutra) as a potential medicinal substance or secretions of animal origin which is having endless therapeutic as well as other uses.

> [@Jackmannii](#): > > Endless, I tell you! Ignore the bacteria, they’re harmless. Cow dung juice is also terrific for what ails you. Aww, that’s so cute!
