#3 Boy! Think what it'll do to bacteria and viruses! They won't need any more of that suspicious western medicine, that the juice tamper with so as to dampen their manhoodliness.

Izzat 50-50, milk and urine, or 60-40?

#5 "Arab researchers" is kind of an oxymoron, no?

#6 cancer is the second cause of death in the Arab World after heart and communicable diseases

Hope their biology is better than their math, because I read that as cancer is third, not second.

#7 This is really really old stuff

Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 7, Bk. 71, No. 590

Narrated Anas:The climate of Medina did not suit some people, so the Prophet ordered them to follow his shepherd, i.e. his camels, and drink their milk and urine (as a medicine). So they followed the shepherd that is the camels and drank their milk and urine till their bodies became healthy. Then they killed the shepherd and drove away the camels. When the news reached the Prophet he sent some people in their pursuit. When they were brought, he cut their hands and feet and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron.

#9 I remember My father saying "Cleaner than a Hound's tooth" hen I asked what that meant, he told me that as dogs Bodies ha a different "Operating Temperature" than humans they could not either catch human diseases, or Give us Humans any dog diseses.

Sounds like Camels also have a different temperature.

#12 I've heard an old Arab proverb about the "Toe of the Camel curing ED", but I'm not sure of the scientific evidence...

more studies are surely needed. Ima apply for a grant. $10 Mil?

#13 We would throw a PARTY for the clever smartass who could reject an application for lack of novelty over Sahih F***ing Al-Bukhari. LOL!
