Hi all
I have spent years looking into the supposed benefits of apitherapy. The literature is full of this sort of stuff

> One use of bee venom acupuncture in neuropsychiatric disorders has been to treat depression. In one case series, thirty-seven depressed subjects, rated by the Beck's Depression Scale, “twenty-one rated as moderately depressed” (19–29 points/63) and five as “severely depressed” (> 30 points) (El Wahab, 2015). Subjects received live beestings to multiple acupoints, twice a week. At the end of one year, none were depressed.

100% efficacy. Of course, there were no controls. Everyone got treated, everyone got cured. Hallelujah!
