Two superstitions

In Cambodia, women who eat a bumblebee and the egg of a goose whilst pregnant will be blessed with a clever child.

In Italy, if you put a chestnut in your pocket or bag on the first day of autumn and leave it there until the end of winter, you won’t get the 'flu all winter.

Guess which one of these folk remedies I am putting to trial?
