From the “yes, that’s actually true” department, Viagra may fight heart disease.
Viagra, along with cousins Levitra, and Cialis, might lower heart risk by one-third.
Don’t laugh; read the story.
Of course, most people don’t realize how inaccurate studies are in the field of medicine, compared to physics.
In medicine, you can have a false positive rate as high as 5 percent and it’s still considered a well-constructed study.
In physics, the baseline is 0.01 percent, just 500 times higher.
In other words, while Viagra MAY turn out to be the real deal, it may not, at all.
