Interesting theory from the U.S.: men who donate blood have significantly lower risk of heart disease than those who don't. It seems that men's risk is higher partially due to their higher storage storage levels of iron. Donating blood reduces these iron stores. Because women menstruate, their iron stores are lower. Digital x-ray machines are now being tested. Advantages include faster exams, less need for retakes and better and more clearly defined images. The results can be stored electronically and can be sent anywhere in the world via the internet. Trying to lose weight? Reduce your TV watching. Men who watch at least three hours of television a day are twice as likely to be obese as those who watch less than one hour. The reasons are, naturally, the inactivity but also the exposure to all those food ads for junk foods that stimulate the appetite. Latest figures about the costs of marketing a new drug say it takes 12 years and $350 million to bring a drug from the research laboratory to the hands of the patient. One of the goals of our pharmacists is to keep up to date on all the new drug products coming on the market. We work hard to keep abreast of all the new research that's going on.
