Japanese love of tenteki, or getting an intravenous drip from a doctor whenever they feel under the weather, and anyone who is sick or tired can head up to the local clinic for a quick addition of nutrients directly into their body. Now it looks like the Japanese affinity with IV's might be blossoming into the Next Big Thing, with the rise of "IV Drip Bars" located in busy train stations and shopping areas, where men and women can relax in a chair while a drip of nutrients flows into their arm. Many opt for the optional injection of garlic esse nce into their veins, too, to ward off colds.
