1877:"Pic shows: Zhang Yue drinking liquid detergent. A man claims his love life is in a shambles after his bizarre addiction to liquid detergent became a major turn-off for the women around him. Zhang Yue, the 31-year-old sufferer of a condition known as pica, said he first discovered his fondness for washing-up liquids, soaps, and shampoos in 2012 â and his craving has only become stronger, forcing him to swig half a bottle of detergent every day. Pica is an eating disorder characterised by the desire to eat items with little or no nutritional value â sand, paint, stones, glass, and in this case detergent â but doctors have told the man from Laodong village, which is in Jiulongpo District of Chinaâs south-western Chongqing city, that the condition mostly affects young children and pregnant women. According to Zhang, hospital scans and numerous full-body check-ups have shown no abnormalities, either in his brain or in his bodily function, and no one is able to explain his insatiable thirst for soap. Despite being in good physical health, Zhang said his addition is most damaging to his life love â or lack thereof â as the women he meets constantly turn him down after finding out about his quite unusual drink preference. He and his condition are now well-known amongst the locals in Laodong village, meaning his chances of meeting women locally are almost non-existent, so he is hoping experts will help explain â and cure â his bizarre addiction. Doctors at the hospitals Zhang visited have suggested that hormonal deficiencies and imbalance may be causing his desire to drink liquid detergent, but, frustratingly, no tests have managed to provide conclusive proof of his theory. Medics have also warned Zhang that his continued drinking of liquid soaps could prove damaging to his health in the future, even if he does not see the signs right now. (ends) 3:"CEN
