If this proves to be true then it's a great bit of information, since so many people use it already.
I just hope it proves to be true when they do more research.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is a theory right now, and not a fact?
That would be interesting to hear. What's the active ingredient in Ibuprofen that scientists are speculating that can prevent the disease?
Ibuprofen doesn't work for me, but I definitely might reconsider taking it every once in a while if this deems to be true.
