    Default Im going to eat me some Tangerine Peel


    Sorry to post another NON FISHING item on this part but this is pretty good news. Thought I would share it with all who havent seen it.

    LONDON - Tangerine peel could help in the fight against certain cancers, researchers said on Wednesday.

    Human cancer cells, which contain an enzyme called P450 CYP1B1, were destroyed by a compound contained in tangerine peel, Salvestrol Q40, scientists at Leicester School of Pharmacy found.

    The findings may offer a new approach to uncovering a treatment for cancers such as breast, lung, prostate and ovarian cancer, the scientists said.
    Medicinal chemist Dr. Hoon L. Tan said: “It is very exciting to find a compound in food that can target cancers specifically. Salvestrols may offer a new mechanism of dietary anti-cancer action.

    “Indeed, the depletion of salvestrols in the modern diet is due to the fact that many people no longer eat the skin of fruits and this may be a major contributory factor to the increasing incidence of some cancers in the human population.”

    The breakthrough was being presented at the British Pharmaceutical Conference held in Manchester.

    Trust me, they already have a cure for cancer...Think of it this way, if they had a cure for cancer all the pharmaceutical companies would go out of business...They need cancer patients to stay in business becasue it is so expensive to treat and that is how they make their money...I mean come on, in todays age with with all the research and scientists working on this, you know they ahve come up with something...I may be wrong, but I know I wont found out the truth in my time!!
