Features: Having had numerous conversations with international friends, whenever the topic of Tibetan medicine comes up, the response is always praise for Tibetan medicine's urine diagnosis. They hold great admiration for Father Huc, a French priest who crossed the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the 1840s and described the methods of Tibetan medicine's urine diagnosis in his book A Journey to Lhasa and Central Tibet. They even repeat the original text unchanged: "Lama doctors can determine what illness a patient has just by looking at their urine, and the patient only needs to wait at home to take medicine." Then they repeat in English: "Amazing Tibetan urine diagnosis, amazing Tibetan urine diagnosis."
Upon reviewing historical records, it was discovered that the important historical work A History of World Civilizations had already praised Tibetan medicine's urine diagnosis: "Urine analysis was a highly favored method at the time. Tibetan doctors believed that without observing any other part of the patient, they could diagnose and treat the illness by merely examining the urine."
The details of Tibetan medicine's urine diagnosis are rarely elaborated upon in Western major works, which speaks to the significant influence it had at the time. Over the past decade, thousands of urine charts have been collected, and each has been clinically verified to fully reveal this unique and miraculous treasure of Tibetan medicine's urine diagnosis. The book Amazing Tibetan Urine Diagnosis was born under such circumstances.
