Horse Urine Cure Alcohol Addiction: The claim that drinking horse urine cures alcohol addiction is going viral. But according to doctors, how much truth is there in this, or is it just a misconception?

Horse Urine Cures Alcohol Addiction: A new trend is rapidly going viral in the world of social media. Drink horse urine and get rid of alcohol addiction. Some videos are going viral with this claim, in which people are seen saying that drinking horse urine can cure even years-old alcohol addiction. Some people are calling it an Ayurvedic miracle, while some are calling it a superstition.
The question arises whether there is any scientific basis behind this claim or it is just a misconception, which can play with people's health. To dispel this misconception, in an interview, the doctor said that there is no medical or scientific evidence that drinking horse urine can cure alcohol addiction. On the contrary, it can be seriously harmful to health.
What is the psychology behind this rumor?
People who have been addicted to drugs for years are often looking for a "quick fix". In such a situation, when a home remedy or Desi remedy goes viral, people try it without thinking, with hope. Many times, problems related to addiction are also related to mental health. Mental and physical addiction does not go away just by drinking something; it requires psychotherapy, counseling, medical treatment, and family support.
What are the side effects of drinking horse urine?
Risk of food poisoning and infection
Abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, and dehydration
Serious effects on the kidneys and liver
Weakened immune system
Addiction is a serious disease, that can only be treated scientifically. One should stay away from blind faith in rumours or the internet, and consulting experts is the right way.
Drinking horse urine is not a solution to get rid of alcohol addiction, but a dangerous illusion. If you or someone around you is suffering from this addiction, then contact a doctor, take counseling and get treatment with patience. Before experimenting with your health, think carefully, lest you become more ill in the process of treatment.
