Research
  1. Best Disease Prevention Found (Independent)
      A new polypill has been invented that is expected to be on the market within two years. "The polypill would contain aspirin to prevent blood clots, a statin to lower cholesterol, three blood-pressure lowering agents at half the standard dose and folic acid to lower homocysteine, which causes furring of the arteries. If given to everyone aged over 55, one in three people would gain from the treatment, surviving for an extra 12 years on average without a heart attack or stroke."

      " 'It would be acceptably safe and with widespread use would have a greater impact on the prevention of disease in the Western world than any other single intervention,' the authors say in the BMJ." 6-03
