Demi Moore uses leeches to detox (video)
Fitness, Celebs & Entertainment
Could you ever imagine purposefully letting leeches suck on your blood? Yeah, me neither. But Demi Moore does, as a way to detox, according to this interview she had with Letterman a couple of weeks back. According to Demi, "I was in Austria doing a cleanse and part of the treatment was leech therapy. These aren't just swamp leeches though - we are talking about highly trained medical leeches." And does she feel better after the cleanse? She answers with a resounding yes, though she admits she didn't feel very good immediately following the procedure.
Using leeches for medical reasons was considered a legitimate, trustworthy cure ... in medieval times. But back then, redheads and people with freckles were thought to be witches too. So why revert back to that ancient way of thinking? I can't see any way this could possibly be healthy. Can you?
