Stroke Rounds: Potassium Tied to Lower Stroke Risk

Silly and lazy research. They could have looked up old research that showed this possible link years ago. My god, is everyone stupid in the stroke world?

  1. If you look closely at much of the stroke research, you will see that it "builds on" or confirms effects that are similar to those already found in heart disease. E.g. a particular cholesterol or blood pressure med will reduce risk of stroke as it did heart disease. Less than 10% of stroke research funds are directed to rehab research.
