Anticancer activity of cow urine distillate, an update

The prevalence of several threatening diseases such as cancer, chronic ailments, and mental troubles is attributed to the polluted environment and stressed modern lifestyle. According to Indian principles, 'Mother Nature', gave us the gift of the ‘cow’ as the ‘mother of all’. The five principal products derived from the cow are milk, curd, ghee, dung, and urine, which have been consistently employed in Indian culture from ancient times and are together referred to as Panchgavya. Cow products provide both direct and indirect immune-boosting processes that aid in the fight against illnesses and germs, as evidenced by antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer properties. Cow urine distillate (CUD) has long been used successfully for cancer therapy, as observed in cancer patients. It also has cancer-curing potential in its advanced phases. Its beneficial properties have attracted international attention as a result of patents obtained for its anticancer effects. More time and research are still required to explain the mechanism of action and validation.
