Schizophrenia is a biological condition that affects a person’s ability to think clearly, distinguish reality from fantasy, to manage emotions, make decisions and relate to others.

Yep, that sure sounds like the average Democrat and muslim.

Interesting. Shows how we are just scratching the surface as to causes of diseases. Seems like more and more we learn that our future health and wellness are determined genetically as opposed to how much coffee we drink or whether we eat salmon 3 times a week.

"a possible scientific explanation for lower rates of cancer among patients with schizophrenia, despite having poor diets and high rates of smoking, and their parents."

Very interesting. I have an older sister who is has schizophrenia and the article is right about the bad habits. She chain smokes home rolled filterless cigs, drinks at least a 2 liter of diet coke a day and eats an odd, easily prepared diet, but at least she's eats fairly 'normal' compared to the bulimea she suffered in the late 70's before anyone had ever HEARD of anorexia and bulemia.

One thing about schizophrenics that may actually help their health is their need to go for walks. She's in her 50's now, so she will occasionally take a bus or taxi, but walking is still her main mode of transportation and she can really cover some territory!

And here I thought that was the symptoms list for liberalism.

Seems like I’d heard this somewhere.
