Coffee sold in California must carry cancer warning, judge rules
Coffee sold in California must carry a cancer warning, a court has ruled. The judge in Los Angeles said Starbucks and about 90 other coffee sellers had failed to warn customers about a potentially toxic compound that is produced during the roasting process.
The firms were sued by a California-based non profit-group over the chemical acrylamide. The group argued that as acrylamide is regarded as carcinogenic under state law, it should be sold with a warning.
Ruling in favour of the Council for Education and Research on Toxics, Superior Court Judge Elihu Berle said the companies should not be exempt from the law, as they had failed to prove that the "consumption of coffee confers a benefit to human health". The companies have until 10 April to appeal the decision.

Sentence seemed to make more sense when I substituted "naturopathy" for neuropathy, but then your link looked like tl;dr so I didn't pursue it too deeply.
No, you are mistaken. I've always had this sig.

If you're talking about homeopathy levels, then all you have to do is imagine the substance in your food and you've got a homeopathic dose.

And the less you think about it, the stronger the dose!
