Appropo pharmacy pills: you know that you are not supposed to take any fever reducing pills? A fever is a pain in the ass but it does have a purpose, namely to kill viruses.Taking aspirin lets you go back to work but it doesn't cure you of anything.

Precisely for most day to day symptoms including common cold, the human body is designed to regenerate itself back to normal health. Unfortunately however there are many illnesses, diseases, both mental and physical which are complex. In fact your lucky if a certain medication does the magic.

Ok, this is something really gross.You are not supposed to use deoderants that stop you from sweating because it interferes with your body's temperature homeostasis and its natural waste disposal process :)You are also not supposed to wax under the bikini because it increases your chances of all sorts of nasty infections. .You also shouldn't wear high heels because they deform your feet and legs. But of course, everyone does it anyway, yeast infections and homeostasis be damned.

It is amazing what the human body adapts too as as well as other species. I say yes unequivically to deoderant but you can have your bikini waxes, tatoos, piercings, and high heels, not to mention panty hose! Conformity in the interest of sex, love and belonging is sometimes hell on Earth.
