Mesothelioma Cells Slowed by Grape-Seed Extracts
Extracts from two Italian grape varieties showed distinct anti-cancer activity in three different mesothelioma cell lines, according to a recent multicenter study in Naples, Italy.
The in-vitro findings strongly suggest potential of a novel, nonconventional mesothelioma treatment advancement in the future for this aggressive, difficult-to-treat cancer.
Previous laboratory studies have shown a negative impact of grape-seed extracts on breast, colon and skin cancer cells, but this was the first using multiple human mesothelioma cell lines.
“Our study on mesothelioma seems very promising, but it is a preliminary analysis,...

Drugs, money and your heart
I was really excited to see a recent headline that said heart doctors should discuss herbal medicines with their patients. The recommendation came from a study in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.1
I thought this was a real breakthrough. I thought it meant cardiologists had finally seen the light…
Boy, was I wrong…
The article said doctors should learn about herbal medicines so they could STOP their patients from using them.
You see, supplement use is at an all-time high. About 70% of Americans take them.

We all have something called a FOXO3 gene. It helps protect us against aging.
German researchers at the Christian-Albrechts University studied the FOXO3 gene in 380-plus centenarians, more than 600 people in their 90s, and more than 700 people between the ages of 60 and 7...
