Apropos the recent discussion on TiPS about alternative medicine
and giving people the "placebo that they desire", consider the following
article from the NY Times on the FDA's warning against the use of
the homeopathic cold treatment Zicam because of the number of cases
reporting the loss of the ability to smell (anosmia); see:

For a skeptical history of homeopathy, see the following:
