This could prove to be a major breakthrough in helping patients reduce their dosages,along with reducing the toxic/non-toxic side effects associated with these medications.<br /><br />I definitely think that this is a worthwhile research project, though I don't think that the pharmaceutical industry will take kindly to research that can possibly show that there are ways to reduce medicine consumption. Remember, they're here to make $$$.Chaimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-40787681484968731402012-12-23T08:54:30.352+02:002012-12-23T08:54:30.352+02:00NO medications should be taken with fruit juices. ...NO medications should be taken with fruit juices. while the research is still ongoing many drugs have been shown to be less effective if taken with juices.elemirnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-61837677991673760482012-12-23T01:57:34.839+02:002012-12-23T01:57:34.839+02:00I am glad this was posted.It might save a life!I am glad this was posted.It might save a life!NOSHIE63https://www.blogger.com/profile/02324778720720614204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-81138434505258120532012-12-22T20:58:53.480+02:002012-12-22T20:58:53.480+02:00Anecdotal confirmation: When I was a teenager, I u...Anecdotal confirmation: When I was a teenager, I used to work for a certain person a"h. This person had hypertension (high blood pressure), and he would always take his meds with grapefruit juice. Unfortunately, he was niftar at a relatively young age, several decades ago. <br /> <br />Does this prove the research posted here? No. But knowing what we know today, it probably would not be a good idea to take meds with grapefruit juice.<br /> <br />An alternative theory worthwhile exploring would be to see if grapefruit juice could be used to REDUCE medicine doses. The thinking is, if grapefruit juice is an effective accelerant which helps the medicine reach the blood stream at full force, then theoretically much less would be needed. This might be a crucial breakthrough, especially with cancer treatments, where the medicines themselves can carry toxic side effects...Chaimnoreply@blogger.com
