Q

One old wives' tale says that swallowed one will remain in a human's stomach for up to seven years, as it is not digestible. According to several medical opinions, there seems to be little truth behind the tale. In most cases, swallowed one will pass through the system as fast as any other food, but can be a little slower. There have been a few cases where swallowing has required medical attention, but these cases are more or less related to chronic swallowers. One young boy swallowed several pieces each day and had to be hospitalized and another young girl required medical attention when she swallowed it and four coins, which got stuck together in her esophagus. As long as the mass of it is small enough to pass out of the stomach, it will likely pass out of the body easily. Which Product ?
