Eatin' Health

What do you know! I'm eating healthier than I thought.

Red wine and dark chocolate cancer killers

Red grapes and dark chocolate join blueberries, garlic, soy, and teas as ingredients that starve cancer while feeding bodies....
...
Li cited a Harvard Medical School study showing that men who ate cooked tomatoes several times weekly were 30 to 50 percent less likely to have prostate cancer.
...
The foundation pitted some foods against approved drugs and found that soy, parsley, red grapes, berries and other comestibles were either as effective or more potent in battling cancer cells.

Eaten together, the foods were even more effective in fighting cancer.


Everything on that list of foods except the soy is eaten or drunk here often. Even the soy gets its day in sweet and sour soup or as sauce on some other oriental dish Terry serves up.

BTW - it's hot and sour soup - pepper and vinegar. Sweet and sour is with pineapple. Hm, I'll have to think about making the soup soon.....
