DISPENSARY CORNER 4 Jan 16

WHAT’S cute, fluffy and believed
to have the ability to diagnose
and cure diseases and illnesses?
It’s guinea pigs, of course!
Over the weekend, shamans at
“The Fair of Wishes” market in
Lima, Peru, enlisted the help of
the fuzzy critters to help “clean”
away disease and ailments.
The guinea pig is given free
reign to roam and crawl over the
patient to diagnose the problem,
before the Shaman healer rubs
the animal on the patient to rid
them of the illness.
Participating shaman, Alicia
Zulema, told Stuff.co.nz that the
process can help cure a range of
problems.
“It can be cancer, it may be
bones, it may be anemia, can be
a headache, sress migraine, all
kinds of diseases,” she said.
ITALIAN cafes and shops have
been inadvertently selling cocaine
laced tea for years.
Authorities made the shock
discovery, after a bus driver with
a clean record tested positive for
the stimulant during a routine
drugs test, according to Italian
newspaper La Repubblica.
The 38-year-old driver, referred
only to as Roberto, was baffled
at the test result and denied all
wrong doing to the company
physician, explaining that the only
feasible explanation was that he
had brewed a cup of Delisse Alla
Coca herbal tea with two teabags
the day before.
The doctor notified food
authorities after trying the brew
for himself, later testing positive
for cocaine-use the next day.
