Onions, Garlic Linked to Lower Cancer Risks
“In an analysis of eight studies from Italy and Switzerland, researchers found that older adults with the highest onion and garlic intakes had the lowest risks of a number of cancers – including colon, ovarian and throat cancers.”
Chemical In Red Wine, Fruits And Vegetables Counters Unhealthy Effects Of High-fat Foods
“Just as additives help gasoline burn cleaner, a new research report shows that the food industry could take a similar approach toward reducing health risks associated with fatty foods. These “meal additives” would be based on work of Israeli researchers who discovered that consuming polyphenols (natural compounds in red wine, fruits, and vegetables) simultaneously with high-fat foods may reduce health risks associated with these foods.”

Blueberry, Green Tea Supplement Protects Brain
“Blueberries are a major source of flavonoids, in particular anthocyanins and flavanols. Although the precise mechanisms by which these plant-derived molecules affect the brain are unknown, they have been shown to cross the blood brain barrier after dietary intake. It is believed that they exert their effects on learning and memory by enhancing existing neuronal (brain cell) connections, improving cellular communications and stimulating neuronal regeneration.”

“The warning from the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Center was sent out in the form of a memo by the center’s director, Dr. Ronald Herberman, to the center’s 3,000 faculty and staff. In it he said, “Recently I have become aware of the growing body of literature linking long-term cell use to possible adverse health effects including cancer. Although the evidence is still controversial, I am convinced that there are sufficient data to warrant issuing an advisory to share some precautionary advice on cell phone use.”
