Would you take this for a cough?

Snail slime will cure your cough.

SNAIL slime is just the thing for a nasty cough, according to a pharmaceutical company in Chile that is marketing a patented cough elixir made from snail emissions.

The owner of the company's snail farm, Maria Sannino, told local paper Las Ultimas Noticias he believed the slime to be an effective cough remedy, because it contains antibiotics and has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory uses.

Oh well if it can make my coughing go away, I'd even eat a bowl of fried caterpillars. I've been watching Fear Factor, so I know all sorts of things are possible.

If it actually works? Heck yeah. I'm tired of sounding like I have the consumption.

I'm sick of sounding like a 15-pack-a-day smoker when I've never smoked. So, yes, if they could make the slime taste minty, I'd take it in an instant.

I have not had a cold for a very long time, If I did I doubt if I would be partaking of snail silme to negate coughing.
