BiFlexin still alive--Henk implies it could be....

And it just might be worth something to a pharma company

"Rice bran extracts and compounds
show in vitro inhibitory activities against
the key pro-inflammatory enzymes COX and LOX.
Arthritis is an inflammation of the joints that can
develop into a chronic condition involving swelling,
pain and restricted movement. Osteoarthritis
or rheumatoid arthritis may result from a deregulation
of pro-inflammatory cytokines as well as COX
and LOX enzymes.
Steep increases in the number of people affected
with arthritis will no doubt develop into a global
health issue, not to mention the high costs associated
with it. Pharmaceuticals that are currently
used to lessen the burden of arthritis conditions
are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents like
ibuprofen and aspirin. However, prolonged use of
these over-the-counter drugs can have negative
side effects. Rice bran extracts may turn out to
show strong promise for safe and effective nutritional
aids that help alleviate the symptoms associated
with arthritis. There is little doubt that specially
formulated lifestyle foods targeting the growing
numbers of arthritis sufferers will become an important
new category."

Are lifestlye foods going to be made of the second protein product?
