Did anyone out there read "How to lie with Statistics"?

One of the first thing to notice about this study (though not mentioned in the reporting) is that almost the same number of people on placebo developed heart failure as those using Vitamin E..

Jack Challem (www.nutritionreporter.com) points out to me that all of the subjects in this stsudy were seriously ill, either with heart disease or diabetes.  Half had already suffered heart attacks, and a quatrer had undergone heart surgery.  All of them were talking pharmaceutical drugs.

As helpful as Vitamin E is, as proven by one positivfe research study after another it cannot be expected to perform miracles for those who are severly ill after years of abusing their bodies.

Almost as though the study were carefully designed for failure.

Did anyone report the reduction in  cancer rates found in that same study??
