    So, how do you give money to a homeless person on the street?
    How do you drop coins in a charity collection facility that you find in your shopping mall?

    Artificially coloured sugar on white bread, with margarine?? Total junk food. All three are bad for you. No fibre, empty calories, bad for teeth, fattening, and what about margarine? Margarine is probably made from canola and which is processed at high temperatures, contains trans fats and is toxic.

    You are correct. And the question to be asked is, “Where does the huge amount of electricity required come from??”

    In the dark at 3am unable to sleep I reached into my bedside table drawer and took out what I thought was a sleeping tablet. As I used them so very rarely, they would work. I took the tablet and remained awake. What? Why? Well of course it wasn’t a sleeping tablet but I didn’t know that until the morning. So I had taken a placebo. No effect. So no, placebos don’t work for me. But also, if you know you have been given a placebo, why would it have any effect?
