If a Brazilian person ever hands you some pills, don’t ask any questions. Just swallow them on the spot. I assure you that they are far superior to their American counterparts. And full disclosure here, I am not one of those pill voyagers. I am more of a disgusting hippie who’d rather meditate myself back to health than swallow the evil poisons that the scam artists in the FDA try to pass off as restorative.
These Brazilian black-market meds, though, are top-notch. They are best when administered by a real-live Brazilian, but they work miracles no matter what—as long as you don’t mind the unexpected side effects that come with blindly gulping foreign chemicals.
