About this book
J.W. Armstrong has written a remarkable treatise in support of his theory that all diseases (except those caused by traumatism or structural defects) can be cured by one means. Orthodox practioners are mainly concerned with identifying diseases and applying treatment which suppresses the symptoms without eradicating the underlying cause of the malady. But, as the naturopath Louis Kuhne maintained, it is absurd to treat an organ separately - as specialists often do. If an eye is diseased there is something in the body itself which is causing that disease.
The therapy outlined in this book is an entirely drugless system of healing. Moreover the only ingredient is a substance manufactured in the body, rich in mineral salts, hormones, and other vital substances, namely human urine.
It has been argued that it cannot be right to take back into the body something which the body is apparently discarding. Yet this objection ignores the principle of composting as practised by organic gardeners. Rotting dead leaves, when dug back into the soil, provide valuable mineral salts to nourish new plant life. The same principle holds.
The book includes details of successful treatment by urine-therapy in cases of the common cold, rheumatism, arthritis, mucus colitis, obesity, prostate trouble, pyorrhoea, and many other disorders and diseases.
FOREWORD
By those many people who have derived and are still deriving benefit from Urine-Therapy I have repeatedly been asked to write a book, but hitherto I have demurred. First, because the necessary leisure has been lacking, and secondly, because I am averse to any form of self-advertisement. However, realising that a thing which is put off too long may never be accomplished at all, I have finally decided to yield to persuasions, and this treatise is largely compiled from notes, case-sheets and letters. Other reasons for giving out my experiences to the world will become apparent to the reader in due course. I am fully aware that the publication of a book is attended with certain indirect drawbacks; one is that the writer may be inundated with letters, and another is that, if he is a practitioner, he may be inundated with patients, who may apply to him c/o his publishers. As I am not touting for patients, that was a further reasor. why I wished to delay writing this book. But now that it is going forth to the public, the following must be emphasised
(1) A law having been passed making it now illegal for any but a qualified medical practitioner to declare he can cure certain specific diseases-cancer being one- it should be noted that all case-histories, relative to such diseases mentioned in this book are those of patients treated prior to the passing of the law in question. I am not in a position to state whether the law can he stretched so far as to make it illegal for a layman even to say he has cured such disorders in the past; but if so, then, in accordance with the medical dictum, one is forced to assume that where any such diseases have yielded to other than orthodox treatment, they have perforce beer, wrongly diagnosed !
(2) As the therapy to be outlined in this book is an entirely drugless system of healing and is a specific for h;;alth and not for any given disease, diagnosis plays no practical part in the treatment. Thus, although the chapters are headed with the names of various disorders. it is merely for the sake of literary expedience and to slow that they have proved amenable to the genera! treatment.
JOHN W. ARMSTRONG. 1944.
“Many people believe that fifty thousand doctors, vast hospitals, armies of nurses, dentists, chemists, clinics, and about three hundred thousand mentally deranged, are signs of progressive medicine and civili- sation, but actually they demonstrate complete failure of our medical system, and wrong guidance of the public in nutrition and other ways of living. Thousands of operations carried out weekly with brilliant technique, give additional proof that the prior treatments had r.ot achieved successful cure.”
“ Health and not disease is the true inheritance of life. Human creatures fair to realise facts which stare them in the face. We are made of what we eat, so if any organ becomes diseased, it generally means the food was wrong.
„
MAJOR C. FRASER MACKENZIE, C.I.E.
(Health Through Homeopathy, June, July, 1944).
“Disease becomes a vested interest, and consciously or unconsciously, the doctors foster it as su-±. It is quite a common observation that doctors produce disase. Moreover, the whole system and philosophy of our dealing with disease is mistaken.”
DR. W. H. WHITE, M.R.C.S., L.R.CJ’.
Hippocrates, the great priest of medicine, advised the physicians to accept the help of the laity in;the treatment of disease.
Like the kingdom of heaven, the kingdom of health has to be taken by storm.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Owing to the increasing part played by vested interests in many branches of human endeavour, not least in the very lucrative providing of remedies for disease, intelli- gent members of the public are growing more and more distrustful of orthodox medical methods. Many people must have asked themselves the following questions
How comes it that for over fifty years the ortho- dox cancer researchers have been occupying them- selves with the cause and cure of malignancy, yet still can suggest nothing better than the knife, radium or X-rays?
How comes it that after letters from many doctors had appeared in the British Medical- Journal testify- ing to the highly unsatisfactory results of radium treatment, it is none the less still boosted in this country and elsewhere?
How comes it that when effective treatments for cancer have been discovered either by a qualified doctor or by practitioners of unorthodox schools. they have not been recognised by the Cancer Research Ring, which still asks the public to donate large sums towards the discovery of a cure?
To these questions (with which I shall deal in my Afterword) no satisfactory answers are forthcoming, and we are forced to the conclusion that, although there are many selfless and noble-minded doctors to be found in most countries, in modern Medicine itself many things prevail which are much to be deplored.
(1) The torture of animals for experimentation and for the preparation of sera and vaccines ;
(2) the fostering of fear in the public mind by means of advertising ;
(3) commercialism and vested interests which ought to play no part in heal- ing the sick and
(4) a narrow spirited element of trade unionism which suggests that the patients exist for the doctors instead of vice versa : all these things many doctors themselves have at one time or another commented upon and regretted in forcible terms.
And yet, as after a war, Nature or “ the Higher Powers “ seem to step in to adjust the balance of things by insuring that a greater proportion of male children should he born, so when Medicine becomes over-tinctured with material considerations do they seem to inspire some method of healing as a corrective to these tendencies, and as a help to those who are large-minded enough to take advantage of it.
Such a method may be precluded by other methods which prepare the way for its acceptance ; for one must admit that naturopathy has been instrumen- tal in curing many diseases where tho orthodox system has signally failed. Nevertheless, as we shall see anon, naturopathy as it is usually practised does not go far enough, for although it can cleanse the body of its toxins, it cannot replace wasted tissues incidental to such grievous ills as consumption or other diseases of equal gravity. This can only be accomplished by an elabora- tion of an ancient therapy, the details of which I propose to put forward in this book, and which I have practised ort myself and some thousands of others with signal success, although many of them were said to be suffering from incurable diseases. It is true that at one time I had resolved not to write my book until I had had the chance of curing even leprosy ; but as I am unlikely to come across a case of this dread disease unless enabled to visit those countries where it is prevalent, I have decided to give the details of my experiences to the public without further delay.
My contention and I do not stand alone in putting it forward that within Man himself is to be found the substance to cure his diseases, whether they be so-called wasting diseases or otherwise ; and 1 propose to substantiate this contention by case-sheets, on the principle that one ounce of facts is worth many pounds of theories.
If in the course of stating the facts, references to medical failures should be essential, this is unavoidable in the interests of the public and of truth itself ; and such references are made in no spirit of hostility towards doctors. As already implied there are many unsel&h and honest physicians to whom I wish to do no injustice it is erroneous and harmful beliefs and practices which I am constrained to criticise, not personalities.
The readers will see for themselves that such criticism cannot arise from any ulterior motives. I have no secret remedy or patent medicine to sell. Indeed, although a layman, T_ am only following the policy required from all reputabh., members of the Medical Profession themselves, viz., t,: malrc ao secret of any discovery which may prove usefW in curing mankind : the more so as in many cases the tre:Ament can be carried out at home without any financial out`ay whatever.
Tl is aspect of the matter has been fully dealt with by Mr. E’ is Barker (whose books are published by John Murr 3 y ) and by Mr. Cyril Scott in his Doctors, Disease and He 11th and Victory Over Cancer; The Cauldron of Disease by Are Wan.rland, also repays study.
