OP here. It looks like one of the core early papers about Alzheimer’s that has guided billions of research money was fraudulent. People are speculating that’s why Alzheimer’s drug development has not been very successful.

Huge scandal if true. [/quote]
Most of us have seen in recent years how common it is for pharmaceutical corporations to fund medical research. Why is this legal?[/quote]

Big pharma isn't the culprit here. Pharma companies are rarely to never linked to this type of data falsification--they have too much at stake financially. This kind of falsification seems to happen most often among researchers in academia who need to publish to get grants, tenure, etc. It's a particular problem in China where researchers often have unrealistic, unattainable publishing quotas they must fulfill.

Also, pharma R&D is where a lot of new drugs come from. Without that, you have no new treatments and drugs.[/quote]
Start publicizing the known causes of chronic diseases, and start educating doctors and the public on how to AVOID making ourselves sick. But hell, there’s no profit in that. Get the cheap crap out of our food supply. Europeans don’t allow toxic additives in their food. Why do we? Profits over Health.

And yes, let school children grow some food outside. They’ll be more excited to eat it when they helped grow it. Promote CSAs and neighbored community gardening. Let’s get back to true healthy eating, garden to table. [/quote]
