[QUOTE="Outlier, post: 2554193, member: 550046"] I simply add to this fascinating discussion the observation that it is very difficult to prove a negative. So statements that indicate x% of people "would have" had this or that health event if they hadn't taken this or that medicine, are opinions with no solid study behind them. Everyone is entitled to opinion, but not for wrapping it up as truth. As far as groups being tested for research, it would be a hot day in Manchester if all their other health issues, diet and lifestyle were taken into account. We are dynamic beings, not just walking ailments or potential health problems. [/QUOTE]
