Here's two excerpts from the article . . . "Because all genes work through signals they send to other parts of a cell, RNAi might be used to silence an incredible variety of diseases, including AIDS, type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, blinding macular degeneration, cancers, and, possibly, Asian bird flu. Studies already are under way to use RNAi to block human genes involved in AIDS, hepatitis, muscle-wasting Lou Gerhrig's disease, macular degeneration, and breast cancer."
"Lots of promising drugs are crowded into the pipeline to success, but that's a trip that often is measured in decades. The hope is that RNAi drug development will go faster than the norm, because of rapid advances in decoding the human genome. Once the chemical sequence of a disease gene is known, it could take only months, not years, to develop an RNAi silencer for its message, Lieberman speculates."

Then it looks like disease FREE
There have been endless numerous researches and publications of drugs development to cure chronic diseases and cancers for the last 50 or more years but non are promising even rockets have made so many trips to other planets!
Don't have high hope, I believe tackle one thing at a time! In fact, nature has provided many solutions, people are not focus or refuse to accept, why? Because people want QUICK RESULT. Quick result always end up with NO RESULT
Too much hope gamble on drugs instead of working hard to rejevenate and alleviate the healthy level of the body system with natural foods and herbs. There are patients of cancers and chronic diseases success stories written in books. Many if not all, pointed to NATURAL FOODS!
Nature has balance forces to diseases! I have search, find effective herbs & natural foods solution for arthritis - no drugs, no pain and better QOL. All I need is time, determination, discipline, belief and perseverance.
Great articles, excellent researches, super drugs, new super/miracle drugs in the pipeline for chronic diseases & cancers. The result still no cure
Chasing after drugs, cocktail of drugs - is it a solution?
There are humble, simple herbs and natural foods need to be explored, used to elevate the healthy level of the body. Rely on yourself not drugs. Disease does not like and afraid of healthy body
Your mindset, belief, positive thinking, finding correct herbs and natural foods, determination to fight the disease and gradually building up healthy body!!!!
No one can really help you if you do not help yourself.
Temporary relieve of pain and control of disease with meds are not going to help. Only the disease dwindles to no threat/flare then you do not need any help. You help yourself to regain healthiness!
