How far would one go to guarantee the *** of an unborn child? In the case of a 36-year-old woman from Wuhan, China, far e**ugh to substitute all three meals with only kelp for two weeks, in order to guarantee her chances of carrying a boy during her second pregnancy.
The woman, who goes by the surname Liu, had read off an Internet forum (https://www.facebook.com/cctvnewschina/photos/a.566725090034982.1073741828.565225540184937/1213003342073817) that a diet consisting of alkalescent food such as kelp and marine algae, one month before conception will guarantee a male fetus (http://www.yourchineseastrology.com/ways-to-get-baby-boy.htm).
During her two-week kelp diet, Liu began to experience discomfort, palpitations and excessive sweating.
