This Pain Relief is 8 Times More Effective Than Morphine A groundbreaking treatment for pain, eight times strongerthan morphine, has been discovered by scientists. Therevolutionary technique involves an injection of the protein prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP), which cancombat serious discomfort formore than three days -- an astonishing 14 times as long as the five hours of pain relief brought about with a dose of morphine. The substance appears to have few side effects, and works by neutralizing the chemical in your body that causes your brain to feel pain. A research team pinpointed the identity of a particular"pain protein" in nerve cells, and then found a way of converting it from a substance that causes pain into one that suppresses it. When nerve cells are in distress, they release a chemical known as adenosinetriphosphate (ATP) which creates the sensation of pain. PAP converts the ATP into adenosine -- which actually suppresses pain. M U Z A F F A R
