People take Job's tears for hay fever, high cholesterol, cancer, warts, arthritis, obesity, respiratory tract infections, and toxoplasmosis caused by a parasite.

It is believed that making a sincere wish, place seven JOB'S TEARS in the pocket and carry them for seven days. At the end of the seventh day, go to a place where there is running water, recite the 23rd Psalm ("The Lord is my shepherd..."), pray, throw the JOB'S TEARS into the water over the left shoulder, walk away, don't look back — and in seven days, the wish comes true.
