The spa for snails. The Italian snail farming industry has trebled in 20 years and is now worth 拢180 million. They say it's mainly been driven by demand from the cosmetics industry - apparently snail slime works wonders for your skin. Dany Mitzman visited the laboratory where a new device has been created to extract the slime without killing the snails. The answer, it seems, is to sweat them. First broadcast on You & Yours, 17 February 2017.
