I Will Vouch For The Maca
Peruvians have discovered that drinking ground-up frogs can increase a low sex drive. It can also help to cure asthma and bronchitis, which I suppose is just the beneficial side effect and not the main reason for ingesting this concoction. Oh, I just looked at the caption for the picture. It looks like a frog smoothie can also fix some problems associated with anemia and boost brain activity. I'm beginning to suspect that all of these are related. If I were having an asthma attack or showering my partner with bronchial coughs, I for damn sure don't think I would want to have sex with them. And if I were iron-starved and therefore lethargic, I don't think sex would be the first thing on my mind. So maybe the blended froggucino doesn't actually increase one's libido, but rather alleviates conditions that reduce it. That's an important difference. Either way, I am somewhat disappointed that I didn't discover this beverage while living in Lima. But that's okay because I certainly found and enjoyed the coca tea in Cuzco. And I'd drink that as my morning (and afternoon) coffee every day if I could.
