Selenium cannot cure prostate cancer and Practical Telepathy
The study of the effects of vitamin E and selenium on the success of prostate cancer prevention was stopped by decree of the US government, as these substances have no effectiveness.
Under the auspices of the SELECT study, about 35,000 men aged fifty and older have been systematically taking one or both of these substances, as well as a placebo, for several years.
However, all those who agreed to the trials received a notification from the National Cancer Institute some time ago that they should stop taking the drugs, as they have no effect on preventing prostate cancer, either individually or together.
In fact, those who took selenium were more likely to develop diabetes, and those who took vitamin E, cancer.
However, the National Cancer Institute says it's likely to be just a coincidence, because statistically, the difference is minimal, meaning that drugs don't increase your risk of getting sick.
A solid study has not proven the effectiveness of the drugs, although earlier small experiments suggested that the drugs are able to help.
The health of the subjects will be monitored by doctors for another three years, although the experiment was stopped earlier than 2011.
According to statistics, prostate cancer is considered to be the most common type of cancer among men in the United States. This year alone, more than 186,000 cases have been identified, and 28,660 men have died from this disease.
A drug such as finasteride can help cure prostate cancer, according to individual experiments, but side effects prevent its widespread use.
Practical telepathy
Using a new technology developed by British researchers, it allows you to transfer mental images directly from one person's brain to another's brain.
This can allow people with disabilities, including those who are paralyzed, to communicate their thoughts to others. However, the new method of transmitting information is sure to interest computer enthusiasts, as it greatly facilitates the management of electronic systems.
The new technology is based not on using traditional manipulators or keyboards, but using electrodes connected to them, which are able to detect the activity of certain parts of the human brain. Therefore, the development of this technology will allow people to convey specific figurative or other information without using traditional communication methods – verbal (words) or non-verbal (gestures).
