A hard pill to swallow

Alternative and homeopathic medicine seems to be much more popular here than in the U.S. I've known this for a while, but it really struck me recently during German class. Earlier this week we discussed subjects related to health -- body parts, common health problems, etc. During one of the exercises, we were given a list of health problems and a list of remedies and had to "prescribe" a remedy for each problem. Here are some of the more amusing remedies.

Headache -- drink coffee

Dizzy/light-headed -- eat chocolate

Diarrhea -- drink cola and eat pretzels

And everyone's favorite:
Stomachache - drink cognac
