MatteusMaximus, There has already been a cure found for cardiac (heart) disease! The Doctor that found the cure received a Nobel for it... however, he was not allowed to publish his findings because of the pressure he received from all the multi billion dollar pharmaceutical companies! The Nobel was given to 3 doctors (shared) for the discovery of the Nitrous Oxide Cell found in our own bodies!!! The Nobel was given in 1998. Read closely how the writers of the awards were told to write the information so that no one would be able to sue the pharmaceutical companies!!! I would not this if I had not been in the medical field myself and especially the cardiology department.

gobledygook, Clinical trials are usually only offered to patients who have no other options. They know going in that it’s a shot in the dark, but whether it works or not, the doctors learn something.

Syn, nitrous oxide is an anaesthetic. The nobel prize was given in 1998 for discoveries about nitric oxide. I wouldn't buy into big pharma conspiracy theories. They usually don't make a whole lot of sense if you think about thrm critically.

I'm not sure all the fault or blame can be placed on the pharmaceutical companies. Just consider how difficult it's been to gain approval for medical use of marijuana. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence, it's been "like pulling teeth" to get the authorities to allow folks to avail themselves of the benefits medical marijuana has to offer. "Big Brother" is so afraid people are going to enjoy themselves & have a good time, that it has stood in the way of effective treatment for several medical issues. It seems for no other reason than the basis for those remedies is with marijuana.
