I've had snake poison wine made by farmer friends of mine, and
ironically, it's supposed to help you detoxify. I also tried 30 year
old tiger wine in the middle of no where out in the Sichuan province.
That's for virility. Oddly enough, the Chinese in their infinite
wisdom, never thought that exercise, a good diet, and NOT DRINKING TOO
MUCH TERPENTINE could help you with all your health problems. TCM all
the way; don't fix it until it's broke.
