"When many cures are offered for a disease, it means the disease is not curable" -Anton Chekhov
''Once you tell people there's a cure for something, the more likely they are to pressure doctors to prescribe it.'' -Robert Ehrlich, drug advertising executive.

Blessed are the fish-eaters: Two studies came out this week ( from the same research institution) that suggest fish-oils may provide cardiac protection. Both involved large populations, one of men, the other of women, and both were well-designed. Neither of them were funded by the fishing industry. Fish oil is also known to help reduce cholesterol levels, and some think that it helps arthritis. Certainly, it can’t hurt to eat more fish, as long as they don’t come from polluted waters. posted by Sydney on
