Red wine and dark chocolate are potent cancer killers, US study says | News.com.au
CABERNET and chocolate are potent medicine for killing cancer, according to research presented in the US.I am a chocolate addicted :P
Red grapes and dark chocolate join blueberries, garlic, soy, and teas as ingredients that starve cancer while feeding bodies, Angiogenesis Foundation head William Li said at a prestigious TED (technology, entertainment design) Conference in Long Beach, California.
"We are rating foods based on their cancer-fighting qualities," Mr Li said. "What we eat is really our chemotherapy three times a day."
The Massachusetts-based foundation is identifying foods containing chemicals that evidently choke-off blood supplies to tumors, starving them to death.
Mr Li cited a Harvard Medical School study showing that men who ate cooked tomatoes several times weekly were 30 to 50 per cent less likely to have prostate cancer.
