Not for those with a weak stomach - some alternatives to convention - medicine

July 15th 2008 02:58
Medicine weird

Stressed out? Try snakes. Stomach pains? Eating a live frog will clear that up. For some, the drug cabinet isn't the only place they go to for relief.



What'll they think of next and what else will we mere mortals do to try to solve out problems by other than conventional methods - click here for the Reuters link

And how about that bee in the ear and that leech on the face and those snakes. Come on, there's more there.

That's capital odd.

It's not gross. Or overly painful, I would think, except maybe the leech and the bee. I don't like bees. Or leeches.

It's just odd.

Me either.

Sure I'm all about the new agey stuff, but I am NOT having bees anywhere near my ear and I'm not smoking anything through there either.
