Default Pretty darned convincing
In the Tampa paper last week-
http://tampabay.com/news/aging/article879333.ece

A story about an MDs effort to save her husband from early onset Alzheimer's Disease. At the point of desperation, she tried coconut oil. Look at the picture. Part of the testing required the patient to draw a clockface. The one on the left is baseline and totally unrecognizeable. The one on the right is 37 days later taking two tablespoons of the stuff daily. Not only is it recognizeable, it is numbered and correctly at that.
