(NaturalNews) Green tea lovers like to grab a steaming hot cup of the stuff because it tastes so good in their mouth; now, they can grab it because it's so good for their mouth. According to a study recently published in the journal Cancer Prevention Research, people with precancerous oral lesions were able to slow the progression of those lesions by taking a potent green tea extract. What's more, the extracts caused some of the participants' lesions to disappear entirely.To test the green tea extracts' effectiveness, University of Texas researchers had 41 leukoplakia participants take one of three things (actually, one of...

(NaturalNews) Dr. Otis Brawley, chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society, recently participated in an interview with the New York Times concerning a Journal of the American Medical Association analysis of breast and prostate cancer screening. The study questioned the legitimacy of such screenings in saving lives, a notion confirmed by Dr. Brawley as legitimate. Adding that the supposed benefits of screening have been "exaggerated", Dr. Brawley's comments have fueled a firestorm of controversy since they fly in the face of what the organization has been saying and promoting for years.

Abstract Although the human genome has remained unchanged over the last 10,000 years, our lifestyle has become progressively more divergent
from those of our ancient ancestors. This maladaptive change became apparent with the Industrial Revolution and has been accelerating
in recent decades. Socially, we are people of the 21st century, but genetically we remain similar to our early ancestors.
In conjunction with this discordance between our ancient, genetically-determined biology and the nutritional, cultural and
activity patterns in contemporary Western populations, many diseases have emerged. Only a c...
