Romeo And Juliet Medical Journal - Presentation Transcript

That Mysterious Miracle Potion
The Analysis
The Friar concocts a potion, that puts its subject into a state of suspended animation:
Undetectable Breath
Undetectable Pulse
Cold Body
Death-like Appearance
The Research
The Potion has many effects, which makes it a compound of several ingredients as no natural poisons would have all of these effects.
It is easy to put a person to sleep, but most substances that cause lowered heart-rate and reduce breathing would come with unwanted side effects: vomiting, itchiness,
DEATH.
The Conclusion
The draught is very complicated, and it seemed like there was a chance that it would fail. The Friar only mentions it when Juliet proved brave enough.
Having your heart rate and breathing restricted to such an extent is also very dangerous.
(Don’t Forget This Is A Fictional Piece)
Applying Modern Sciences
With today’s sciences, you have two options to be put in suspended animation:
Cryogenics (Irreversible at Present)
Hydrogen Sulphide (Tested Only On Rats)
Both processes are incomplete. Cryogenics is used only on legally dead patients for testing and hydrogen sulphide has only be used on rats and mice.
