Reaction Shots: Study says people who take Viagra have lower risk of Alzheimer’s


From the Omaha World-Herald, originally reported by the NY Daily News:

Though more studies are needed, researchers in Cleveland found that men who were taking the blue pill, also known as sildenafil, had a lower risk of Alzheimer’s, following analysis of a database of over 7.2 million patients spanning six years, BBC News reported.

The team also reported finding in lab studies that those who took higher than usual doses of the pill — best known for erectile dysfunction — displayed an increase in brain cell growth and reduced protein accumulation.

1.    So, it keeps you both hard and sharp?

2.    When you think with your penis, you're also helping your brain think as well.

3.    Daddy's little helper is also granddad's little helper.

4.    The "Four F's" are now three, since Viagra will now keep you from forgetting.

5.    Not only does Viagra make you grow "down there", it also helps you grow "up there". 

6.    Maybe by increasing brain cell growth, it will help guys avoid regrets. (HA! Nope! They'll still think with their you-know-whats.)

7.    So, the pill that's known for its side effect, has a side effect to the side effect? What next, a cure for cancer?

8.    "Are you thinking about me, or just thinking?"

9.    "Common side effects include headachesheartburn, and flushed skin."  Wait... it improves brain function, but causes headaches? Of course, no guy ever will use that excuse after taking Viagra!

10.    [Oh, great, now I'll be flooded with sildenafil spam! "No, seriously honey, I was just researching! No! Not that kind of research! Strictly academic! What? You want to play 'Mad Scientist'?! *GULP*]

11.    Yes, size matters. (For men, the average is 7⅜.)

12.    What can I say? Some women prefer wrinkles! (AKA "sulcibus".)
