A bizarre video recently went viral featuring Nupur Pittie, a woman from Pune who identifies herself as a “medicine-free life coach.
” In the clip, she’s seen using her own urine to rinse her eyes, confidently claiming that the practice is medicinal and helps heal various eye issues.
In the video, Pittie demonstrates her eye-care routine in detail, explaining that the process involves collecting fresh, midstream urine and pouring it into a special eye cup.
She recommends blinking into the liquid continuously for about 4 to 5 minutes, claiming it’s “a powerful anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and detoxifying agent” that can help reduce redness, dryness, and irritation.
Medical professionals have strongly condemned this practice. Dr. Jaison Philip, a urologist, warned: “NEVER! NEVER! NEVER DO THIS! Urine always belongs in the toilet—never elsewhere.
” He explained that while normal human urine has an acidic pH of 5.5 to 6.5, the ideal pH for eye wash solutions is around 7.4 (alkaline).
Doctors emphasize that urine is not sterile and contains bacteria, toxins, and waste products that could lead to serious infections, inflammation, and even vision loss.
