Sin embargo, a pesar de que los experimentos en animales obstruyen el camino del verdadero progreso científico y médico - siendo una práctica cruel, inútil y peligrosa, causando sufrimiento indescriptible y millones de muertes innecesarias - la experiementacion de drogas medicinales sigue siendo un negocio lucrativo, que ofrece una coartada perfecta para la intruducción en el mercado de nuevos productos a pesar de que los probables efectos secundarios (frecuentemente ignorados) sólo pueden ser determinados al llegar al nivel de pruebas en humanos. Compañías farmacéuticas tales como Pfizer admiten cándidamente que su lucrativa búsqueda de curas mágicas puede resultar frecuentemente en un juego de ruleta rusa en cuanto concierne a sus expectativas originales y al potencial económico de sus medicamentos. Un ejemplo notable es Viagra (bendecida por el Comité de Ciencia del Vaticano como algo que puede mejorar las relaciones familiares), la primera píldora contra la impotencia masculina introducida en el mercado por Pfizer. A pesar de haber sido diseñada incialmente (hace cinco años) para el tratamiento de problemas cardiovasculares causados por arterias bloqueadas, Viagra o sildenafil, su nombre genérico, obtuvo un sorprendente y bien recibido efecto secundario, para la buena fortuna de Pfizer (a 40,000 prescripciones diarias de $10 cada una, en los EE.UU.) y aparentemente, para los posibles usuarios -unos 300 millones de hombres con problemas de impotencia en los EE.UU. y 140 millones a nivel mundial, influenciados por las poderosas técnicas publicitarias a ignorar la creciente lista de posibles efectos secundarios serios, incluyendo varias muertes atribuídas a Viagra y que actualmente se encuentran bajo investigación. Los medicamentos obtenidos a través de la extrapolación de los resultados de los animales a los humanos a través de experimentos animales son totalmente insatisfactorios ya que las diferencias anatómicas y fisiológicas entre las especies hacen los resultados -obtenidos sin criterios científicos adecuados- peligrosamente engañosos: los serios efectos secundarios de medicamentos e iatrogénesis (enfermedades inducidas por los médicos) siendo responsables de hasta uno de cada seis casos que requieren hospitalización y de más de 100,000 muertes al año debidas a reacciones adversas tan sólo en los hospitales de los EE.UU. \- [***Francisco Martín***](https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources/interviews/4303-members-council-francisco-martin.html) - Más acerca de [Investigación Médica y Animales](https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources/interviews/6205-science-articles-research.html) - del Indice de Artículos --- Toda contribución a IVU News será bienvenida.

The history section of this website is drawn from a body of legacy content originally compiled by John Davis, former manager of the International Vegetarian Union. It represents his curation of historical material, and in places includes passages written by him directly. Over the years, the IVU website has migrated between several different hosting servers. In the course of these migrations, a number of PDF files were unfortunately lost, and **some links to PDF documents may no longer function**. Where this is the case, we have chosen to leave the original link text in place, as it may itself carry information of historical value. - Hits: 1653 ### Vegan Recipes - [![VEGAN NORI AND POTATO ROLLS](https://ivu.org/media/zoo/images/th10%20316_106c58604ccfe4dc56d965cdc851c9f1.jpg "VEGAN NORI AND POTATO ROLLS")](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/vegan-nori-and-potato-rolls.html "VEGAN NORI AND POTATO ROLLS") #### [VEGAN NORI AND POTATO ROLLS](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/item/vegan-nori-and-potato-rolls.html "VEGAN NORI AND POTATO ROLLS") [Breakfast and brunch](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/breakfast-and-brunch.html) [Vietnam](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/vietnam.html) [salads](https://ivu.org/vegan-recipes-around-the-world/vegan-food-academy/front-page/category/salads.html) -
