Darknet Opioids
When tackling societal problems - like the opioid epidemic in the US - there are two ways of approaching it. One is to reduce demand - by organising treatment programmes, or reducing the underlying reasons why people may become addicted in the first place - but that ’s hard. So governments often turn to the other route - reducing supply - and... (Source: The BMJ Podcast)

When tackling societal problems - like the opioid epidemic in the US - there are two ways of approaching it. One is to reduce demand - by organising treatment programmes, or reducing the underlying reasons why people may become addicted in the first place - but that ’s hard. So governments often turn to the other route - reducing supply - and that’s what the US government did in 2014 when it rescheduled oxycodone combination products from schedule 3 to schedual 2 - essentially making it harder for people to obtain a prescription. Now reducing that legal supply, without in hand reducing the demand, led to fears that ...

Niacin for people with or without established cardiovascular disease
Heart attack and stroke are the most common causes of death, illness, disability and reduced quality of life in industrialised countries, and several Cochrane Reviews look at ways to prevent these cardiovascular events. A new review from June 2017 looks at the evidence for a B-vitamin called niacin. One of the reviews' authors, Matthias Briel from Basel Institute for Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics in Switzerland, outlines the findings in this podcast.

"We don't really know the impact of these products on our health": Ultraprocessed food & cancer risk
A study published by The BMJ today reports a possible association between intake of highly processed ( “ultra-processed”) food in the diet and cancer. Ultra-processed foods include packaged baked goods and snacks, fizzy drinks, sugary cereals, ready meals and reconstituted meat products - often containing high levels of sugar, fat, and salt, but lacking in vitamins and fibre. They are thought t o account for up to 50% of total daily energy intake in several developed countries. Mathilde Touvier, senior researcher in nutritional epidemiology and Bernard Srour, pharmacist and PhD Candidate, both at INSERM, join us to ...
