Upil Enhance Immune System?

Doctors lung specialist Prof Dr Friedrich Austrian Bischinger never advise people to eat upil (dirt nose) alone because it is claimed could enhance immunity.
Prof. Bischinger discovery in 2004 it had become controversial. Many lay people and paramedics who rejected the theory of Prof. Bischinger and said that theory does not make sense.
Upil The reason is because of the disgusting filth that was the dried mucus due to hazardous wastes in the body. If eating upil tantamount to eating all organisms or bacteria should be removed through the nose. But according to Prof. Bischinger nose with the fingers alone is something healthy, fun and more in line with the human body.
"Nose using its own fingers can reach places that would not be achieved if using a handkerchief. It also can keep the nose to keep them clean," said Prof. Bischinger, as quoted from DailyTimes, Tuesday (27/04/2010).
Upil itself formed from the dirt that comes into the nostril through the breathing process.Dust and dirt that enter the nose will be filtered by the filter or nose hairs. Dirt that is not filtered will be captured by the existing mucus dihidung. Eventually it will harden and mucus formed upil.
"Eating upil dry is a great way to strengthen the immune system. Medically it is sensible and reasonable thing to do. In the immune system, the nose is a filter that filters out a lot of bacteria into one and when this mixture arrives in the intestines will work like drugs , "said Prof. Bischinger.
"Modern medicine has always tried to do the same with a much more complicated methods, people who pick their noses and eat it naturally encourage their immune system for free," he added.
Nose picking is an activity that is positive because it helps clear the nose of dirt. This of course makes a person could breathe better because nothing is blocking the airway.
Prof. Bischinger show when you were little kids love their own nose to nose. But when this habit started growing up prevented by pressure from people who think it is disgusting and an act of anti-social.
These results are quite surprising, because so far people assume that upil is a dirt must be removed and not for consumption. But for Prof. Bischinger, upil can also act as a vitamin that can increase a person's immune system.
Dr. Agus Subagio, Sp ENT, ENT specialist who practices in RS Puri Indah Jakarta claims could not comment on whether the invention is proven healthy or not. But the acknowledged Prof. Dr. Agus that Bischinger was a very well respected in the medical world because of many useful inventions.
"Many theories sinus surgery comes from the discovery of Prof. Bischinger, but if the problem upil benefits I do not understand," said Dr. Agus when contacted detikHealth, Tuesday (27/04/2010).
But basically continued Dr. Agus, the body is created perfectly with sophisticated defense systems and layered.Starting from the outside to the inside of the body's defense systems exist respectively.
