Chyluria is a disease which is prevalent in the people of Africa and Indian sub-continent. The disease is characterized by the presence of chyle in the urine. The urine takes up a milky white appearance. The causative agent of Chyluria is a thready nematode Wuchereria bancrofti which lodges in the lymph channels. Consequently the lymph channels are blocked and the lymph flows into the kidney hilum or ureters and sometimes into the bladder resulting in release of milky white urine. The urine can also be tinged with blood. This condition is known as haemato-chyluria. Usually the condition is self limiting and can sometimes lead to complications. If left untreated, chronic Chyluria can lead to malnutrition and vitamin deficiency. An anti-filarial drug, such as diethylcarbamazine can be prescribed. Severe damage to lymph channels may require surgery.

"When my mother fell ill with cancer I wanted to find a natural solution to help with her suffering.
After an excessive
research I learned about Wheatgrass. And it seemed to work!
She passed through chemotherapy with ease. But was it the Wheatgrass?
And if it was, how come it was so hard to find out about it?"
