Does anyone but me get tried of the alarmist, scare producing media reports that surface? I think it's fine to go for good solid info that's to public advantage, but -- just but..
The latest big news on Vit. E is a prime example. This data, as far I can tell, was based on a patient population of over 60 years old, most, with already established heart disease. Also, I can find no source that gives the REASON or even a speculation as why the increased risk of death was noted - meaning, what pathology was occurring due to the Vit. E consumption? If someone else can find this information, I really would like to know.
I think just being alive right now pretty much puts you at 100% risk of death sometime in the future, true?
