How does government corruption play into your comment?

Skimming off the top of aid programs, diversion of resources, deliberate and proactive misinformation/religious rhetoric, that sort of thing. Particularly big in africa, but it applies elsewhere.

The proper dose is critical for it to be successful. A cold requires 30 to 60 grams per day. If you read anything, read this paper:
