Quechua people Quinine, which is found naturally in bark of cinchona tree, is known to be used by Quechuas people for malaria-like symptoms. When chewed, coca acts as a mild stimulant and suppresses hunger, thirst, pain, and fatigue; it is also used to alleviate altitude sickness.

Many indigenous women wear the colorful traditional costume, complete with bowler style hat. The hat has been worn by Quechua and Aymara women since the 1920s, when it was brought to the country by British railway workers.
Naturally aspirated engine Naturally aspirated engine A naturally aspirated engine is an internal combustion engine in which oxygen intake depends solely on atmospheric pressure and does not rely on forced induction through a turbocharger or a supercharger. Many sports cars specifically use naturally aspirated engines to avoid turbo lag. In a naturally aspirated engine, air for combustion (diesel cycle in a diesel engine or specific types of Otto cycle in petrol engines—namely petrol direct injection), or an air/fuel mixture (traditional Otto cycle petrol engines)—is drawn into the engine’s cylinders by atmospheric pressure acting against a partial vacuum that occurs as the piston travels
