Accoring to Wikipedia, "Urine contains large amounts of urea, an excellent source of nitrogen for plants. As such it is a useful accelerator for compost. Urea is 10,000 times less toxic than ammonia and is a byproduct of deamination (2 NH3 molecules) and cellular respiration's (1 CO2 molecule) products combining together. Other components include various inorganic salts such as sodium chloride (the discharge of sodium through human urine is known as natriuresis). It tastes salty, and it does not cause cancer or disease."
Again, that is according to Wikipedia, not my own knowledge!
There is just too much information on urine therapy to put here, but take a look at the second website I have.
I don't know why you're so intereted in urine, but CHEERS!

Urine is the excretory product from the body. Amino acids, when deaminated, yield a-keto acids that, directly or via additional reactions, feed into the major metabolic pathways (e.g., Krebs Cycle), depicts the ultimate products of degradation of amino acid carbon skeletons.
Urine,knowns as SIVAMBU in sanskrit,contains a good level of estrogen, which protects a lady from a premenapause heart attack. Estrogen extracted from female urine can be medicinal. Drinking own urine exerts more load on kidney to do re-do. Such a practice is neither scientific nor ethical. Cow's urine is considered auspecious, and is one of the contents in PANCHAGAVYA (Others are cow dung, milk, butter milk and butter)served as HOLY FLUID FOR CONSUMPTION.
Glucogenic amino acids yield glucose, whereas, Ketogenic amino acids: Their carbon skeletons are degraded to acetyl-CoA or acetoacetate. Acetyl CoA, and its precursor acetoacetate, cannot yield net production of oxaloacetate, the precursor for the gluconeogenesis pathway.
For every 2-C acetyl residue entering Krebs Cycle, two carbon atoms leave as CO2. Carbon skeletons of ketogenic amino acids can be catabolized for energy in Krebs Cycle, or converted to ketone bodies or fatty acids. They cannot be converted to glucose. When the aminoacids etc. are metabolized, through mixed function oxidation because one O atom of the O2 is reduced to water while the other is incorporated into the amino acid product.The branched chain amino acids initially share in part a common pathway.
Urine contain either the elements unwanted by the body/ or overflow materials like urine sugar in diabetes. It is urea rich and contains Uric acid. Urine also contain minerals like sodium potassium etc to the level of thrice to the tissue level (owing to water reabsorption) Bilirubin, a degraded product of Hemoglobin is generally excreted through stool. But that too is present in the urine of a jaundice patient. Some albumin is seen in Albuminurea patients.
Urine is a good FERTILIZER, and not a medicine. Some details furnished above are available on the web.

I do belive in urinotherapy. I know personally one woman, she have treated herself with urinotherapy 25 years ago from stomach cancer. We are using urinotherapy very often. It helps. No doubt in more effective way.
