Snakes, lizards and other dissected animals are used as alternative medicine and this became part of the popular culture of locals since Andean people arrived; on the other hand, we have a variety of aromatic herbs which are used by Shamans to make ancestral rituals that invoke good luck, money attraction, wealth and love.
