Boiling Broccoli Ruins Its Anti-cancer Properties

February 4, 2023 by Captain Organic Planet Leave a Comment

Researchers at the University of Warwick have found that the standard British cooking habit of boiling vegetables severely damages the anticancer properties of many Brassica vegetables such as broccoli, Brussel sprouts, cauliflower and green cabbage. Past studies have shown that consumption of Brassica vegetables decreases the risk of cancer. This is because of the high […]

Ultra-processed foods may be linked to increased risk of cancer

February 4, 2023 by Captain Organic Planet Leave a Comment

Higher consumption of ultra-processed foods may be linked to an increased risk of developing and dying from cancer, an Imperial College London-led observational study suggests. Researchers from Imperial’s School of Public Health have produced the most comprehensive assessment to date of the association between ultra-processed foods and the risk of developing cancers. Ultra-processed foods are […]

In cells, UV-emitting nail polish dryers damage DNA and cause mutations

January 18, 2023 by Captain Organic Planet

The ultraviolet nail polish drying devices used to cure gel manicures may pose more of a public health concern than previously thought. Researchers at the University of California San Diego studied these ultraviolet (UV) light emitting devices, and found that their use leads to cell death and cancer-causing mutations in human cells. The devices are […]

Omega-3 Kills Cancer Cells

September 11, 2022 by Captain Organic Planet

Docosahexanoic acid (DHA), an omega-3 fatty acid found in fish oils, has been shown to reduce the size of tumours and enhance the positive effects of the chemotherapy drug cisplatin, while limiting its harmful side effects. The rat experiments provide some support for the plethora of health benefits often ascribed to omega-3 acids. Professor A. […]

F.D.A. Warns Breast Implants May Be Linked to Additional Cancers

September 11, 2022 by Captain Organic Planet

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is informing the public about reports of cancers, including squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and various lymphomas, in the scar tissue (capsule) that forms around breast implants. The various lymphomas reported are not the same as the lymphomas described in previous FDA Communications as Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell […]

New study links ultra-processed foods and colorectal cancer in men

September 6, 2022 by Captain Organic Planet

For many Americans, the convenience of pre-cooked and instant meals may make it easy to overlook the less-than-ideal nutritional information, but a team led by researchers at Tufts University and Harvard University hope that will change after recently discovering a link between the high consumption of ultra-processed foods and an increased risk of colorectal cancer.

New treatment of acute myeloid leukemia achieves remarkable results in a disease formerly with little hope

September 5, 2022 by Captain Organic Planet

The prognosis for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is poor: very few achieve remission and for those that don’t the option is largely palliative. Every year almost 1000 Australians die of the disease and clinical trials into new therapies for older patients have largely failed. A new Australian drug trial has achieved a […]

Spicing the meat also cuts the cancer risk, research suggests

August 30, 2022 by Captain Organic Planet

Spices will do more than just enhance the taste of ground beef. They may also cut down on the risk of compounds that can cause cancer. J. Scott Smith, a Kansas State University food chemistry professor, has pursued different projects in recent years seeking ways to reduce heterocyclic amines (HCAs). HCAs are the carcinogenic compounds […]

Researchers destroy cancer cells with ultrasound treatment

August 22, 2022 by Captain Organic Planet

An international research team led by Dr. Tali Ilovitsh of the Biomedical Engineering Department at Tel Aviv University developed a noninvasive technology platform for gene delivery into breast cancer cells. The technique combines ultrasound with tumor-targeted microbubbles. Once the ultrasound is activated, the microbubbles explode like smart and targeted warheads, creating holes in cancer cells’ […]

Synthetic “forever chemical” linked to liver cancer

August 10, 2022 by Captain Organic Planet

Exposure to a synthetic chemical found widely in the environment is linked to non-viral hepatocellular carcinoma, the most common type of liver cancer, according to a new study conducted by researchers from the Keck School of Medicine of USC and published in JHEP Reports. The chemical, called perfluooctane sulfate or PFOS, is one of a class of man-made […]
