A MAN in southeast China who once ate 20 mice in a day says forty
years of swallowing tree frogs, rats and mice live has cured him of
intestinal problems and made him strong.
Jiang Musheng, a 66-year-old resident of Jiangxi province, suffered
from frequent abdominal pains and coughing from the age of 26, until
an old man called Yang Dingcai suggested tree frogs as a remedy, the
Beijing News said.

"At first, Jiang Musheng did not dare to eat a live, wriggling frog,
but after seeing Yang Dingcai swallow one, he ate ... two without a
thought," the paper said.

"After a month of eating live frogs, his stomach pains and coughing
were completely gone."

Over the years Jiang had added live mice, baby rats and green frogs to
his diet, and had once eaten 20 mice in a single day, the paper said.
