					<description><![CDATA[The Daily Mail yet again fearlessly exposes another health risk. Not. They've reprinted a meme going around the Intertubes authored by the self-styled 'Renegade Pharmacist' and taken it to a whole new level of Utter, Utter Bollocks (µ²B). Which really is quite a feat given the meme is such complete horseshit in the first place. I'm very]]></description>

And you would not be alone. Most of the information on the Interwebs predicts]]></description>

There are several problems with this notion. One is that ‘natural’ is essentially a meaningless term; everything]]></description>
