Ranger candy may lead to longer life

Yes, that's right... In addition to giving you stomach ulcers, a recent study shows that the use of ibuprofen may lead to longer life:

Regular doses of ibuprofen could allow people to live up to 12 years longer.

In tests, the drug appears to hold back the ageing process as well as helping fight disease.
Quote:
The treatment added about 15 per cent to the lives of the different species, which in human terms amounts to an extra dozen or so years of life.
Quote:
Earlier this year, researchers at Newcastle University found that the cheap anti-inflammatory drug could also help fight a host of chronic diseases such as Type 2 diabetes, arthritis and dementia.

Meanwhile other research published yesterday said ibuprofen could also cut the risk of developing the second most common form of skin cancer for those with pale skin.
