Work Hard, Play Hard


Good morning everybody, Dr Jogia here. I hope you are enjoying the sunny weather we are experiencing here on Meridian Island. I wanted to quickly comment on something that I read about recently which made me chuckle. A former physiotherapist for a Bolivian football team has admitted to giving players viagra to help them perform at high altitude. You see, viagra oxygenates the blood, and the team from Santa Cruz (400m above sea level) were playing in La Paz (3,500m above sea level). The drug was administered to several players, especially those who suffered most at altitude, although none of them were aware of taking the drug. I am so surprised they didn't notice when they were getting their balls up. Ha! Oh, goodness gracious me! Getting it up. Oh, hoho. Well. Ahem. Until next time, stay healthy.
