Demi Moore covers herself in blood-sucking leeches to keep her skin looking
fresh.
The actress - who, at 45, is 15 years older than husband Ashton Kutcher - is
a huge fan of a detox treatment which involves the unpleasant creatures
being placed on her body.
She said: "I feel like I've always been someone looking for the cutting edge
of things that optimize your health and healing.
"I was in Austria doing a cleanse and part of the treatment was leech
therapy.
"These aren't just swamp leeches though - we are talking about highly
trained medical leeches. These are not some low level scavengers - we're
talking high level blood suckers."
Demi says she now feels very relaxed and refreshed after her treatments but
admits it was quite unnerving to begin with.
She added to US talk show host David Letterman: "It detoxifies your blood -
I'm feeling very detoxified right now. I did it in some woman's house lying
on her bed. We did a little sampler first, which is in the belly button.
"It crawls in and you feel it bite down on you and you want to go, 'You
b*****d.' Then you relax and work on your Lamaze breathing just to kind of
relax.
"You watch it swell up on your blood, watching it get fatter and fatter -
then when it's super drunk on your blood it just kind of rolls over like it
is stumbling out of the bar."
