Terrific, but now you will have to decide whether you want to prevent heart attack with aspirin or Parkinson's with Ibuprophen. As it turns out, I am pre-disposed to both, as my mother has been diagnosed with Diabetes and Parkinson's. Diabetes raises your risk of heart disease as much as if you had already had a heart attack. I guess we'll see if the study really pans out.
