Cayenne pepper keeps Billy Bob tip-top

Eccentric actor Billy Bob Thornton keeps healthy by drinking cayenne pepper-laced water three times a day.

Angelina Jolie’s ex-beau has also cut back on his smoking and drinking and regularly visits a holistic doctor who prescribes herbs to the Intolerable Cruelty star.

Thornton swears the cayenne pepper rids his system of parasites. He says: "My doctor told me I have fewer parasites than any patient he'd ever seen because I have pure liquid cayenne pepper three times a day."
