New Gurus: 2. Taking the Urine

Influenced

Available for over a year

Will Blunderfield grew up, he says, an unhappy, unhealthy kid. Now he feels great 鈥 as a 鈥渨ild naked man鈥 who drinks his own urine. Across the world, wellness is a multi-billion pound industry, even though some of its practices are unproven, extreme or even harmful. So why are so many people unimpressed with what 21st century medicine can offer them, and turning to internet gurus instead? The New Gurus is a series about looking for enlightenment in the digital world. Written and presented by Helen Lewis Series Producers: Morgan Childs and Tom Pooley Story consultant: Geoff Bird Original music composed by Paper Tiger Sound design and mix: Rob Speight Editor: Craig Templeton Smith A Tempo & Talker production for 麻豆社 Radio 4 and 麻豆社 Sounds
