I am in financial difficulty, and am considering doing human medical trials at the Guys hospital drug research unit. How dangerous is this?

clearly it depends firstly on the nature of the trial. A trial looking into the effects of acupuncture on treating athlete's foot is far less risky than a trial on a new treatment within oncology!
When a drug is trialed, it is generally the first time that it has been tested on humans. Generally the drug is safe, (more to the point, the doctors know how the drug will react on most occasions), however, as in the case of
Park, there are rare occasions when the drug behaves in way not previously known.
Incidentally, Viagra was first trialled on men who were at risk of heart attacks, but the doctor running the trial said that all the men found that they were having erections after taking the medication

Medical science and science in general is a major dissapointment posing as a successful field of human activity. Every day hundreds of scientific theories or claims are proven wrong again and again.So called medicine the medical industry produces only treats the symptoms and doesnt remove the cause and their drugs have serious,even fatal,side effects that most people dont know about. That for me is the proof of the incompetency of science and/or medical industry.I have given up on science and mainstream medicine a long time ago. I would not trust them with the shred off my balls pardon my expression no matter what their motives are.World health or otherwise. In the society as we have now all science eventually becomes a slave to selfish capitalistic values.

You get more money for the more risky trials which i wouldn't recommend as you can be permantly damaged with them, the minor ones like acne cream testing or deoderant sensitivity testing are safer but as i said you won't get as much. I do think the recent scare was just unlucky and there are thousands of people out there that do the trials and live happy, healthy lives, its really up to yourself if you want to take the risk.

Since that medical trial went horrendously wrong and the men were dubed 'elephant man' I would say you were pretty safe...they will not dare take risks like that again plus that was a diff company. I would trust Guys hospital...go for it x

Not dangerous at all! I did it numerous times and never had anything adverse happen to me at all. In fact you can acquire some interesting side effects! I now hear in color, and can speak to most single cell organisms, not to mention that when it rains I can vibrate hard enough to pass through a wall if I want to. Oh! And I made $27 bucks!

Thyroid disease is one of the most common health problems we face today. From a practical standpoint, there are many ways to approach this issue. Learn here https://tr.im/vA4Aw
Hypothyroidism, or underactive thyroid, is a very common problem, and there are many reasons for this, including drinking chlorinated and fluoridated water, and eating brominated flour.
Chlorine, fluoride, and bromine are all in the same family as iodine, and can displace iodine in your thyroid gland.
Secondly, many people simply aren't getting enough iodine in their diet to begin with. The amount you get from iodized salt is just barely enough to prevent you from getting a goiter.

Extremely dangerous. As these drugs will never have been tested on humanss before, making you the proverbial guinea pig.
