    …possible harm, I threw all of my bottles into the garbage can. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2013/07/the-vitam... The placebo effect is powerful. I highly recommend reading Topol's "The Creative Destruction of Medicine" for more information.

    Hacking Healthcare (HC specific) and The DevOps Handbook (general) are the books I buy for everyone joining the team. I recommend Eric Topol's books as well, including The Creative Destruction of Medicine and Deep Medicine. Lots of food for thought.
