This one's going to Katerina Nikoltsou who sent a great piece of mailart to me around Christmas! Thanks :)
Slimming is massive business - collectively we spend millions (maybe billions) on low-fat food, the gym, books, videos and various pills. But do all those things really do what they’re supposed to?
Well, sometimes they do that and more. For instance, one diet pill that was developed was pretty good - it really helped people become more active, want to exercise much more than usual. Thing is, then people started using it when they went clubbing and exercising a little bit too much and the pill got banned. It’s the pill that most of us know as ecstasy. Talk about a medicine with some side effects!!
But the story actually doesn’t stop there. There’s talk of the drug coming back as a prescription medicine to help resolve stress disorders... an indication that it is always worth exploring all avenues.

Phew good thing I don't have to worry about slimming, although if the doctors are giving out free Ecstasy...
