S’Korea seizes Chinese-made pills from powdered flesh of dead human babies
Authorities in South Korea have seized thousands of pills containing the powdered flesh of fetuses and babies allegedly smuggled in from China.
The products are believed to be consumed by its customers, who consider it as vitality boosters and Viagra-style performance enhancers, according to multiple reports.
Despite South Korea’s crackdown on the smuggling of capsules from China containing the powdered flesh of dead babies, attempts to smuggle the infant flesh capsules’ into the country continue.
“Supposedly, the television team paid a lot of money to get some of the pills, and when they tested them, found the pills’ contents were 99.7 percent human, and were also able to discern the babies’ gender from the powder, as well as found hair and nail remnants,” read a report on the documentary, which further disclosed that the babies are ‘mostly’ stillbirths and abortions.
“The bodies of babies are chopped into small pieces and dried on stoves before being turned into powder,” the report disclosed.
The gruesome pills, made with stillborn fetuses or placenta, are believed by some to be a performance-enhancement pill that helps increase vitality and sex drive.
A 2013 analysis of human flesh pills released by the country’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) found a large number of contaminated bacteria and hepatitis viruses.
“Some people take infant flesh capsules for health, but this not only violates social dignity and customs, but as shown in the experimental results, it is illegally manufactured and exposed to the risk of contamination with harmful substances such as microorganisms and hepatitis virus,” the ministry’s investigation team had said in the past.
