Sleep apnea that aggravates narcolepsy is probably an indicator because of how it reduces oxygen to the brain, and when the tissues relax, collapsing the viscera on blood vessel constricting them.. yada... yada. Sleep apnea has a correlation with obesity.. so guess what?!! Abagad-Diablo@excite.com Tell those darn cats about the naps so they don’t stroke-out on our laps.

People need to stop publishing these bogus "studies." By the way, did you know that the fear of cancer may cause malignant tumors? Or that reality tv may cause stupidity and ADD? Stupid.

USA has top notch trauma care (or can when everyone is on top of their game) Yet when it comes to preventative medicine we suck. How many "Pink" campaigns has there been for cancer? Enormous billions have been spent and yet I have the horrible feeling they're doing the same experiments over and over with the same results. Studies find......I believe non of it anymore. Even the smoking. Sure smoking is no good, but in moderation it is of no consequence. Put away two packs a day with happy meals, sixpacks, a sedentary lifestyle and you are corpulent toast. Bunch of quacks. I smoke, drink, chase girls and still get some good wood, and Im seventy-six. I do not eat fast food, do anything to excess and I'm fine. You can even ask my 35 yo girlfriend Should there be a study to study the idiots that do studies.

And in undeveloped counties today 60 years old is really old for most of the population. Julie said, “IN THE OLDEN TIMES THERE WAS NOBODY AROUND TO FIND STUFF.

Big fracking deal - they want to get people all worked up over a 1% increase in risk? Talk about a tempest in a teapot. Look, we're all terminal, no one gets out alive. I'm certainly not going to worry about anything involving a tiny, fractional increase in risk. Eat well, exercise, take your vitamins, drink some red wine, eat some dark chocolate, and don't worry. Sure, you'll eventually die of something, but don't let the worry-warts prevent you from enjoying life in the meantime. What a crock... Now excuse me, I'm feeling a little drowsy...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Get real - the increased risk is in the range of 1-2%.
