Weird as Man Walks After Spending 43 Years In Wheelchair On Wrong Diagnosis

By -


 A Portuguese man spent 43 years in a wheelchair because of a mistaken medical diagnosis, finally re-learning to walk only in his fifties.


When Rufino Borrego was 13, he was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy.

After that Rufino  used a wheelchair to get around for more than four decades a neurologist realised  that he in fact suffered from a different disease that weakens the muscles, myasthenia.

The rare disease can be treated simply by taking asthma medication — and just a year after his new diagnosis, Borrego was able to walk for the first time to his usual neighbourhood cafe.

Shocking As Japanese Lactation Bars Serves Up Breast Milk Shots

Not that adults consuming breast milk is a novelty. Women in Mongolian families stock refrigerators with breast milk for any family member that wants a quick healthy snack. Convalescing Chinese treat themselves to breast milk. But what we have here in Tokyo’s Kabukicho District are lactation bars that have nursing mothers filling shot glasses with breast milk in front of your eyes. A shot costs 2,000 yen, whereas if you want it straight from the nipple, be prepared to shell out 5,000 yen. For that amount, the ladies will also run their fingers through your hair, coo and say your name as they suckle you. Bonyu Bar is one such bar in Kabukicho. It employs three nursing women, all under the age of 30 and willing to let you taste their mammary secretions. The Japanese, it seems, are connoisseurs of breast milk and prefer to sample in shot glasses before heading for the tap, er, nipple. So if you ever happen to be in Tokyo and are feeling health-conscious and bore...

Weird! Introducing the Sunion, an Onion That Doesn’t Make You Cry When You Chop It

If you’ve ever had to chop an onion, you probably know that it’s one of the most annoying cooking experiences. It just fills your eyes with tears and, apart from wearing goggles, there’s not too much you can do about it. Scientists and farmers have been working on a solution to this problem for decades, and they’ve apparently come up with a tearless onion. Called the “Sunion”, this new vegetable is the result of a natural cross-breeding program that’s been going on farms in Nevada and Washington since the 1980s, which should put consumers worried about genetically-modified produce at ease. It’s supposedly a sweet, mild-tasting onion that doesn’t leave that strong, pungent aftertaste, but what really sets it apart from most other onion varieties is that it doesn’t cause teary eyes when it’s chopped. When you cut into a normal onion, it releases a volatile compound called lachrymatory-factor synthase, and when that hits your eyes, your body produces tears to reduce ir...
