According to the media report: “The research team... achieved the results after a year of experiments.” A researcher was quoted saying: “This research was very risky because we directly experimented on cancer cells procured in a bottle. We found the exact quantity of cow urine required to kill particular number of cancer cells in a day.” This has not been verified by any other existing research and defies scientific logic, as they appeared to have presumed cancer cells to function in a manner similar to infectious diseases.

But, there were a few tweeps who focused on the realities of the announcement.
@jayantsjy tweeted: “Raw Cow urine is dangerous for health, it contains many toxins which can harm your health dangerously. Such tweets are not supposed to be taken seriously , these morons do this for their political gains.”

The report also quoted a researcher saying: “The next step is to experiment it on a rat. Once this is successful, we will create oral pills for different type of cancers. Chemotherapy kills healthy cells, too, while cow urine only kills infected cells.”
But, there were those who believed the possibility of the research results, hence retweeted and shared the news @ThePerpass wrote: “Well, if this is true then that is awesome, but they still haven’t even tested it on mice our Guinea pigs.”
@Nadeemripples tweeted: “If you have a serious study and research on your topic cow urine can cure cancer, put it in public domain, let suffering people get benefits out of your research, a material for Nobel prize.”
Tweep @deepsealioness highlighted that this report was inconsiderate to families with cancer patients. She wrote: “This is wrong. Families who have cancer patients in last stages are already cheated by so many charlatans. We don’t need to glamourise cow urine at the cost of grieving families. Each cancer is different, there is no fix, it’s all stupidity.”
This is not the first time that the health benefits of cow urine have been touted in India, but it has never been - to quote the tweep @jeenasingh: “Cow urine, cancer cure and scientist in a single sentence! We ARE living in interesting times indeed!”
