Cancer Treatment in Old Age
Cancer is largely a disease of older people. As a person ages, molecular, cellular, and physiological changes in the body influence the development of cancer. These factors also influence responses to treatment. Sociological factors also influence decisions to treat the older patient.

Oxidative Stress and the Neuropathies
NAC - N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is effective in the treatment of HIV and the related symptoms that stem from this disease. It is also possible that due to the many similarities of most aspects of HIV and the Neuropathies - that there is common ground here and that the solution to one may be also the solution to the other. Thus - an introduction to the presence of and the current research involving NAC.
