Los Angeles resident Marcel Iglesias is convinced that eating Chinese weevils avoids cancer and in general significantly strengthen the immune human system. Every day, an American eats five such bugs, and always alive.
Despite the fact that such a diet looks artsy and even unpleasant, in reality it is based on one scientific a study conducted back in 2011. Scientists determined then that Chinese weevils release a special toxin before death, which inhibits the growth of cancer cells.
In small quantities, this organic poison, they say, reduces the risk of cancer by 70 percent. It is worth noting that the world scientific community as a whole called the results of this research is questionable, so many experts do not recommend eating poisonous bugs anyway.
Marcela Iglesias, however, fully believes in the favor of beetles and has been growing them in plastic containers for several months, feeding wheat, bread and edible leaves. Insects breed incredibly fast so a woman never knows lack of its unusual “medication”.
According to our heroine, she has a good friend, which was diagnosed with cancer at the last stage 6 years ago. The man was supposedly prescribed chemotherapy, but he refused it and preferred Chinese weevils, which he learned about in The internet. The patient ate 40-50 living beetles daily.
Doctors predicted that the American would not last even a couple months, however, according to Marcel, he is still alive, and from his terrible affliction was gone. Iglesias fortunately never suffered from oncology, so she takes preventive doses of five weevils every day.
Our heroine claims that bugs do not cause her disgust and are practically tasteless. A woman chews them and drinks water or juice. By the way, in Asian countries, eating Insect repellent is quite common. It’s cheap, useful, and also harmless from an ethical point of view.
