No , we have proof that small insignificant doses do not work. Nobody ever said otherwise.

- scott_s 11y agoWhat do you deem "insignificant"? The required daily dose is about 90 mg. There are experiments which include several grams [1, 2, 3], which is a large enough dose that those writing the papers call it a "megadose". If you consider a megadose to be 1,000g and 10,000g, then I think that's just moving the goal posts. Is there a dosage level at which you would say, "Yes, with no clear signal at that level, it's probable it makes no difference"?
