Eat your Spinach

Eat your spinach, chili peppers and raspberries. Yesterday's Inquirer (Vrazo) writes that biotech drugs are showing success in the fight against cancer.BIO 2005 at the Convention Center for the next few days, focused on foods that help the bodies own cellular system to fight off cancer growth. There are several new drugs mentioned in the article. The concept seems to build the bodies own immune system. Actor Richard Roundtree who was diagnosed with breast cancer twelve years ago, offered the following advice: "be alert to symptoms and get an early diagnosis, eat healthy foods, and exercise." If medications can one day replace chemotherapy it would be a landmark event. To scientists keep up the good work. Meanwhile, we can all eat healthier foods and most importantly lets get moving!
