Pure, unsubstantiated conjecture.



It's not at all.

What is discovered has to be profitable for the engine that feeds the search.

The vast majority of medical research dollars come from the federal government, and most of the rest comes from private donations and fundraising.

The largest payor on the health side is Medicare/Medicaid. The largest payor on the research side is FedGov. I'm pretty sure they'd be motivated to find a cure, even if it was two teaspoons of grapefruit juice and a brisk jog up Mauna Loa.

It is rather interesting that Pfizer manufactures Lipitor for controlling cholesterol and that one of the side effects of Lipitor is ED, well we got ya covered have some Viagara, nice bang for your buck on that one Pfizer , one other thing this cholesterol thing is out of hand, most of the cholesterol in the body is produced by the body probably close to 80-85% from what I've read, so reducing dietary cholesterol is helpful but still not the culprit. Cholesterol is produced by the body to repair damage in the body and if you have high levels of LDL you have inflammation occurring. The antistatin drugs are telling your liver to stop producing so much LDL, again not discovering the cause of the high levels of LDL but treating the symptom at the risk of damaging your liver and the unwanted side effects.
