Conditions such as chronic pain, cancer and diabetes, require medications that cannot be taken orally, but must be dosed intermittently, on an as-needed basis, over a long period of time. Researchers led by Daniel Kohane, from Children's Hospital Boston (Massachusetts, USA) have devised an innovative drug delivery technique to turn dosing on and off, deliver consistent doses and adjust doses according to the patient's need.

The disability profile of midlife adults with pain resembles that of people who are two or three decades older who do not experience pain.   A study by Kenneth E. Kovinsky, from University of California – San Francisco (USA), and colleagues finds that people with pain develop the functional limitations classically associated with aging at much earlier ages.

It is your patient's metabolism which determines which supplements they need, according to the findings of Emanuel Revici, M.D. both in animal studies and his patients.

It has long been believed that cancer occurs when the patient is overly acidic. Therefore part of preventing or reversing the illness would be to alkalize the patient. Dr. Revici found this to be true as well…some of the time.

A little known giant of cancer research, Revici discovered that for some cancer patients alkalizing them worsened their condition.

It's also worth mentioning that by applying a similar method for addicts, Revici eliminated the addictions of over 1,000 heroin and methadone addicts in three to seven days, as well as over 100 alcoholics.
