A great Arab science breakthrough...
Saudi Gazette ^ | 14 July 2009 | Farah Mustafa Wadi

Posted on 07/14/2009 1:54:16 PM PDT by Michel12

Dr. Faten Abdel-Rahman Khorshid is responsible for one of the Kingdom’s greatest national achievements in the field of science for her work which began with the urine of camels and concluded in a potential cure for cancer. After spending more than five years in lab research, this Saudi scientist and faculty member from King Abdul Aziz University (KAAU) and President of the Tissues Culture Unit at King Fahd Center for Medical Research, has discovered that nano-particles in the urine of camels can attack cancer cells with success. Her work began with experiments involving camel urine, cancer cells found in patients’ lungs and culminated in injecting mice with leukemic cancel cells and camel urine to test the results. Speaking to the Saudi Gazette, Dr. Khorshid claimed that she was inspired by Prophet Muhammad’s (pbuh) medical advice and that camel urine consists of natural substances that work to eradicate malignant cells and maintain the number of healthy cells in a cancer patient. “This treatment is not an invention, but rather, taken from our Prophet’s legacy,” she remarked. A Hadith narrated by Al-Bukhari (2855) and Muslim (1671) claims that some people came to Madina and fell ill with bloated abdomens. The Prophet (pbuh) told them to combine the milk and urine of a camel and drink that, after which they recovered. A swollen abdomen may indicate edema, liver disease or cancer. Dr. Khorshid added that she is not a medial doctor but a scientist and her job involves the preparation and testing of a drug in the lab and supervising the manufacture, testing and application of the drug.

Very good. I’m 58 and I doubt I could do it. I have some excuses, but probably not good enough ones.

Needless to say, a bunch of farmers’ broodmare unrine line businesses went broke when the synthetics came on the market.
I guess they got PO'd.

I didn’t want to do it either, until I had to. It’s better to get started now than wait until you have no choice! :^)

Guy: Prophet, my abdomen hurts and is bloated.

Prophet: Combine the milk and urine of a camel and drink it.

Guy: Uhh... Never mind! I feel better! You cured me...

You wanna know why this is great? Because among the kooky things the koran talks about is using camel urine as a medicine. This research will be held up as "see, the koran speaks the truth...it just took 1300 years."

I think I'll...no, that's too obvious. How about, "HOLD that thought!"

I am not a medical doctor but then neither was the prophet....ha ha ha ha. And we think people are nuts for going to Mexico for ‘alternative’ treatments. Thanks I’ll avoid chemo and x-ray, eat when I don’t puke, and just keep getting up every morning to do it all over again. Camel urine indeed —— I think that is what Yasser Arafat used to cure his cancer

Look, they got as lot of camels, and that means a lot of camel p&$$. They have to get rid of all the camel p&$$ somehow. Getting Arab cancer patients to drink it, well, that’s a stroke of brilliance.

Wasn’t there a Hindi guy named Maraji Desi who was a big wig in India who came up with this cure 20 years ago? Except he wasn’t drinking camel piss, he was drinking his own. I think drinking his own piss killed him before cancer had a chance to do so.

There also seems to be some promise in using the inner lining of camel bowels to fight cancer, although there has been far less success in prying the arab researchers loose.

You mean they found a cure without using embryonic stem-cells?

Oh no, they can’t do that. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. It ruins everything the Liberals have worked so hard for.

BTW, in the Original Arabic, it’s “Camel Spider Pee” and NOT Camel Pee. How many times must I tell them to watch those curly-cue thingies in Arabic? They change the meaning completely.
