		<description><![CDATA[Medicinal whiskey? Sounds like a joke doesn&#8217;t it.  But from midnight on 17th January 1920, this was the real deal in the USA, and one of the very few ways you&#8217;d legitimately get your hands on booze until the repeal of Prohibition in December 1933. I found this old (regretably empty) case yesterday in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nice to see as early as 1837 Charles Dickens doing his bit to comically debunk the efficacy of infinitesimal doses in medicine.  Okay, he&#8217;s not quite talking about the bottles of total nothingness you can buy at the chemist and are an insult to reason today, but still interesting that similar ideas were an issue [...]]]></description>

Take the common anti-inflammatory (NSAID) painkiller Ibuprofen.  Consider the various ways a UK consumer can buy the standard [...]]]></description>
