In the video, the woman said, "Many of you have asked me how I always look so good, how my makeup always looks perfect, or how I always have this natural glow."
She then proceeds to collect urine from her dog with a plastic cup before drinking it all. After drinking the entire cup of urine, she then says: "Until I first drank my dog's pee, I was depressed, I was sad, and I had bad acne."
She adds: "Dog pee also has vitamin A in it, vitamin E in it, and it has 10 grams of calcium, and it's also proven to help cure cancer."
Drinking dog or human urine is known as urine therapy, and it was practiced form of therapy in ancient China, Rome, Greece and Egypt. But expects warn about the impact the substance can have on the health because of the toxins and acids that can reside in the urine.
"Urine is mostly made up of water, lots of urea, creatinine, various electrolytes, uric acid, trace proteins, and low levels of antibodies and enzymes," Joy McCarthy, a certified holistic nutritionist, told Allure.
She says that drinking urine from an animal could be an unsafe route for the body because of what the liquid might contain.
"Herbicides have been detected in dog's urine, likely from herbicide-treated law s, antibiotics, and hormones, so I really don't know that it's the safest choice," says Joy.
