While not going too deeply into the issue on this thread i read an article wherein the medical community is split on the treatment and more specifically the over treatment of some forms of cancer. Essentially medical science has gotten good at detecting lesions and hence early treatment except some medical doctors believe no treatment should be rendered. In fact some medical doctors believe some legions shouldn't even be called cancer because patents over react.
Because of the legal environment medical professionals act with the thought constantly on their minds that they can be sued. Pharma is faced with the same issue plus securing FDA approval and instruction, etc. its a wonder anything in the medical community every gets done Add to that the fish oil salesmen and viola!
I am not enamored with medication but don't want to be one of those who doctors' himself and has a fool for a patient.
My personal concern at this time is the prolonged use of statins. My blood work stats at present are ideal.
