You missed hexagonal water. One of my neighbors, who had been suffering from something like chronic fatigue symptom started drinking it — and got completely better.

Curious about it, I looked into ‘hexagonal’ water. It sounds sort-of scientific, and had me going for a bit, from what I could remember from HS chemistry (water forms a hexagonal crystalline structure as it freezes). It turned out to be nonsense — which means she managed to cure herself on the strength of conviction that it was working (AKA placebo effect). Pretty impressive — and I’m now afraid to talk with her about this, as I might un-do her cure.

Don’t disregard the possible good of placebos…
