Save the pee for later

A 34-year-old vegan in England swears by the by-product of his body for his eternal youth. Harry Matadeen has claimed that he drinks his own urine daily, saying that the stomach-churning practice has helped him beat depression and made him look 10 years younger.

Matadeen said he used to suffer from depression and severe social anxiety, which he claimed was cured almost immediately after beginning urine therapy during the summer of 2016 in an "open-minded" and "desperate" attempt "to heal". "It was beyond my wildest imaginations... how powerful it was when I drank it," he added.

"From the moment I drank the urine, it woke up my brain and removed my depression. I felt a new sense of peace, calm and determination," he said. "I thought, ‘Wow, I can make it for free and always keep myself in this happy state.'" Matadeen reportedly guzzles 200 millilitres (about 6.7 fluid ounces) of his own liquid waste every day. His daily drink often consists of month-old urine topped off with a splash of fresh pee.

"Fresh urine is never as bad as you imagine - it is neutral-smelling and doesn't have a bad taste unless you are really toxic," Matadeen insisted. "But the aged urine is always smelly and the taste is a refined and acquired one. I'll just say it takes some getting used to! I actually like the smell and taste of my aged urine now, due to neuro-association of the benefits and the joy it gives me after I take it into my system," he added.

But he doesn't just care about his insides, it seems: Matadeen said he also cups his piddle in his hands and massages it into his face as a moisturiser. "Urine has made me look a lot younger. Drinking the aged urine has revitalised my face to its youthful years and when I rub it on my face, the difference is instant and obvious," he claimed.

"My skin is young, soft and glowing. Aged urine is the best food for the skin that I have found to date. When you rub it on, it softens the skin and keeps it youthful and elastic. I don't use any other skincare other than urine" he added.

Losing identity with teeth

A women from US with no teeth is often accused of cat fishing

Dakila Mccombs, 31, faced problems with her teeth ever since she removed her braces at the age of 22 and six teeth fell out of her mouth. She was left feeling incredibly insecure about her teeth after a serious gum infection. The mom-of-two from Tennessee, US, took the plunge and decided to get her teeth extracted and purchased a set of dentures for a hefty amount of $2,274.33.

She revealed: "I have had dentures for a year now and it's the best thing I ever did. I've lived half of my life under a shadow, unable to express myself." While most adults have 32 teeth, Dakila only had 20 of hers left by the time she hit 30. She went as far as using dental wax, which is used on braces, to fashion fake teeth.
