    There are some nasty plants about too - The same thing would happen if you ate more than about one Amanita mushroom (Amanita Phalloides specifically).

    Dozens of Vietnamese die each year in the US after eating those, because they're apparently almost identical to an edible species found in Vietnam.

    But will that will convert to homocysteine, which can cause heart problems and increase the risk of dementia.

    Wouldn't it be more sensible to skip straight to the vitamins and get an early night?

    That will make the world look like a lot better place and will allow you to see the bits you need to work on and the bits you should simply be ignoring.

    But I know the pain when agile methodology means we can have everything NOW.
