| The body's immune system would reactively respond to it and become weakened in the process, yet quite the opposite is true. green tea inhibits cell mutation, stimulates digestion and enhances brain functions. Synthetic fluoride has the exact opposite effects.
The fluoride—or fluorine—that occurs naturally in tea and other foods is so volatile that most of it evaporates in the heating process. The synthetic sodium fluoride added to water, on the other hand, remains stable when heated. |

Citrus pectin and prostate cancer
I
Modified citrus pectin deserves further investigation into its potential role in inhibiting the growth and spread of prostate cancer. Citrus pectin, added to the diet of small animals, inhibits spread of prostate cancer to other organs, such as the lungs. | | Cancer Letters 77: 33-38, 1994; Bioscience Biotechnology Biochemistry 65: 2137-45, 2001] In one study, tea extracts were applied to the skin. green tea inhibited tumor formation 100% and processed rooibos by 75%. [Cancer Letters 224: 193-202, 2005]
Curcumin for cancer
Your kitchen spice rack probably holds a jar of turmeric, an East Indian spice that contains curcumin, a well-studied molecule in regard to cancer. It has been under scientific investigation since the 1970s.
There are many laboratory dish studies that show cancer cell growth is inhibited when curcumin is added. | | He began supplementing his diet with extra vitamin D, some herbs (curcumin, green tea and resveratrol) along with some vitamin C. About a year later, with a large growing 3.2 centimeter lymphoma on his neck, he had to do something. He increased the amount of resveratrol. Suddenly, within days the primary lymphoma on his neck had visibly shrunk to half its size. Something remarkable was happening. | | The Gerson diet, plant food diets, fasting, whole grain diets and various dietary supplements (such as green tea, pine bark, etc.) all help to control iron. Aspirin, often suggested to reduce the risk for cancer, causes a small amount of blood loss which results in the depletion of iron. Iron chelation and control must be emphasized for adequate cancer prevention. An important lesson in this book is to learn about iron and cancer.
| ^ What are you going to do after cancer treatment is completed? It is estimated that there are more than 10 million Americans living with cancer. | | Anticancer Research 9: 1477-82, 1989] green tea has a synergistic effect with phytate. [Carcinogenesis 18: 2023-26, 1997]
Animal-based foods are associated with higher risk for stomach and esophageal cancer. Not only does meat not provide folic acid, vitamin C and fiber, which are protective factors against gastric tract cancer, but meat is rich in iron that is readily absorbed whether the body needs it or not. By comparison, iron from plant foods is absorbed on an as-needed basis, and is associated with a reduced risk for colon cancer. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Study results suggest that the polyphenols in green tea may interfere with the absorption of cholesterol in the intestinal tract and promote its elimination from the body. One catechin in particular, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), has been shown in experimental models to possibly enhance insulin action, reduce the formation and growth of fat cells, promote glucose metabolism, and reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Avoid coffee, tea (including green tea as it contains caffeine and it is better to obtain the bioflavenoids and antioxidants claimed to be of benefit in green tea from caffeine-free fresh fruit and vegetables), chocolate, and any drinks or foods that contain caffeine, sweeteners, and refined sugar as they tend to upset the hormonal system and can affect your skin. Be aware of certain herbal teas that claim to stimulate the kidneys, as these also cause you to lose excess fluid. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Black tea represents over 95 percent of world trade today; green tea is of importance in the Far East and a cult in the West; Oolong is important in China and Taiwan, with a small export to the United States. Black tea is fully processed. green tea is fired before any oxidization has taken place. Oolong is partly "fermented" and then fired early. All living vegetable materials are covered with organisms which permit the recycling of the material as soon as "death" occurs, so when tea leaves are picked the enzymes start at once to recycle the green material. |

In addition, immunohistochemical analyses showed that tea increased the apoptotic index of the tumors while decreasing the proliferation index and microvessel density (Li et al, 2002). Purified tea constituents, EGCG and theaflavins, also have been reported to inhibit tumorigenesis. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Research at the University of California confirms that the antioxidant capacity of pomegranate juice is two to three times that of red wine or green tea.
The research on pomegranate juice is mounting, and it's impressive. In one study, published in the American Journal of Cardiology, forty-five participants—all of whom had some form of ischemic heart disease—were divided into two groups. For three months, one group received 8 Vi ounces of pomegranate juice daily while the other group got a placebo drink with the same number of calories, coloring, and flavor. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Numerous caffeinated beverages, including coffee, soft drinks, black and green tea, and even decaffeinated coffee, contain tannins, and some contain even more tannins than regular coffee. In animal experiments, tannins have reduced fertility in mice and hens.20,21
Increasingly, environmental pollution and exposure to heavy metals, pesticides, estrogen-like substances, and other chemicals are implicated in cases of infertility in men and women. Depending on the specific exposure, duration, and load, different aspects of fertility can be affected. | | Multiple vitamin/mineral: follow label directions green tea capsules: 1 capsule daily Vegetarian diet is more vulnerable to contracting HPV, and precautions are definitely warranted.
Smoking
Probably the single most important cofactor in the development of cervical dysplasia and cervical cancer is smoking. Smokers have a two- to threefold increase in the incidence of cervical dysplasia.81 Some studies indicate that the incidence compared to nonsmokers is even greater than that. Nicotine is actually concentrated in the glands of the cervix, where it then acts as a carcinogenic compound. | | Another study, the Ohsaki study,292 found that green tea consumption was inversely associated with mortality due to all causes and inversely associated with cardiovascular disease. | | Flaxseed, nettles, and green tea stimulate sex-hormone-binding globulin, which can lower the elevated estrogens and androgens. Saw palmetto can inhibit 5-alpha reductase, which then inhibits the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestos-terone, and smilax and sanguinaria may be able to produce a progesterone effect. All of these mechanisms—plus modifying insulin resistance and/or lowering a hypersecretion of insulin, treating the underlying endocrine problem, and inducing ovulation—are the keys to treating PCOS. | | Multiple vitamin/mineral: follow label directions green tea capsules: 1 capsule daily Vegetarian diet or practicing safer sex if the partner has known genital warts may be advisable. It is considered very low risk for the virus alone to be transmitted between women, although it is theoretically possible. Both heterosexual and homosexual women ask about the risk of transmitting or contracting the virus through oral sex. Again, this is theoretically possible, and there are conditions when the HPV virus may lodge in the larynx and oral cavity. | | Good dietary sources of flavonoids are citrus fruits, berries, onions, parsley, legumes, green tea, and red wine.
Soy. Soy foods contain a group of nonsteroidal plant chemicals called phytoestrogens. These compounds are similar in their chemical structure to estradiol, and to equol, a phytoestrogen metabolite, but they are not actually estrogens. Phytoestrogens are categorized into three main classes: isoflavones, lignans, and coumes-tans. Isoflavones contribute significantly to our dietary phytoestrogen intake. Isoflavones are found in legumes and are highest in soybeans. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Black tea is produced by a controlled process of withering, rolling (to break cell walls), "fermentation" (enzymatic modification of polyphenols), firing (inactivation of the enzymes and drying) and finally sorting, grading and packing. green tea is unfermented, while oolong tea is partially fermented. Uses & properties Tea is mostly consumed in western countries as black tea (with milk and sugar), while green tea (without milk or sugar) is popular in China and Japan. It is flavoured with essential oils (lemon, bergamot), dried flowers (jasmine) or spices (cinnamon, mint). |

See book keywords and concepts | | Inhibition of tumor invasion and metastasis in transplanted and spontaneous metastasis models by orally administered green tea infusion of EGCG also was reported (Liu et al, 2001; Sazuka et al, 1995). Most of the studies were conducted with chemical- or ultraviolet light-induced tumorigenesis models. For example, administration of 1% or 2% freshly brewed green or black tea significantly inhibited the spontaneous development of lung adenoma and rhabdomyosarcoma in A/J mice (Landau et al, 1998). |

CHAPTER 5
Nuts, Seeds, and Nut Butters
The old saying "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" is as true as it ever was, but we might have to expand the prescription to include a handful of nuts. People who eat nuts regularly are less likely to have heart attacks or to die from heart disease than those who don't. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Diet: Eat food that is gentle and strengthens the immune system, such as green vegetables, aubergines, radishes, mung beans, bitter melon, purslane, and pear. green tea is also beneficial since it has a gentle cleansing effect. Avoid seafood, and fatty and spicy foods. Eat fresh vegetables and fruits such as cranberries, blueberries, bananas, red beans, and bamboo shoots.
NATUROPATHY
Diet: Eat two to three servings of brightly colored foods, such as carrots, berries, green vegetables, or squash, a day to soothe skin irritation and inflammation. |
Hyla Cass, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts |  Fruit and vegetables, whole grains, beans, green tea, and herbs are good for you for many reasons—they're loaded with essential nutrients—but science is revealing that the value of these foods can especially be traced back to their bounty of nutrients that prevent free-radical damage: the antioxidants. Your body can make a lot of antioxidants on its own, but you also need the ones found in healthy foods. | | Try one of the many available varieties of green tea, which has strong antioxidant properties. A glass of red wine once a day is also heart healthy and full of antioxidants, as long as it doesn't interact with your medicines.
• Eat. . . chocolate? Dark chocolate has, in recent years, been found to be an excellent source of antioxidants—and may even directly lower blood pressure! Indulge with moderation, since it's the rare occasion when you'll consume chocolate without any sugar to temper its bitterness. |
