with bells on Posted October 26, 2012 #526 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Fact: Drinking one's morning urine ('amaroli') was an ancient yoga practise designed to promote meditation. The ancient Hindu and yoga texts that mention auto-urine drinking, require it be done before sunrise and that only the mid-stream sample be used.The pineal hormone melatonin and its conjugated esters are present in morning urine in significant quantities, the pineal gland secreting melatonin maximally at about 2 am, this secretion being shut off by the eyes' exposure to bright sunlight. Melatonin, when ingested or given intravenously, amongst other effects, provokes tranquility and heightened visualisation. There are high concentrations of melatonin in the first morning urine, but not in a physiologically active form. ........................ ahem.. bottoms up.. yeah.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff Wellington Posted October 26, 2012 #527 Share Posted October 26, 2012 There are 36 different species of dolphins that have been recognized. 32 of them are marine dolphins which are those that we are the most aware of and 4 of them are river dolphins. Not even the rivers are safe from the dolphin menace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
