The results were startling: the endostatin group averaged 85% less plaque buildup and the TNP-470 group 70% less than those in the control group...

One of the girls, says Reinhard, "has a beautiful yellow, geometrically designed cover laid over her." Her head sports a plume of feathers and a golden mask...
