"A substantial amount of work needs to be done before we understand the biology behind the association between obesity and the gene mutation," said William Hockett, a Myriad spokesman.

"It's at a very early stage and will require clinical trials. Myriad's role may be just to create a drug and show efficacy and then partner it with a large drug company," he said.


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgGGGGGGGHHHHHH!

I am so sick and tired of drugs! It's so frustrating to see yet another company that is going to get psychotically rich by slapping a band-aid on the problem. It's not surprising, though. There's very little profit motive in advising people to eat good, wholesome food. When's the last time you saw an ad for asparagus?

Yours in frustration
