green tea

Seems that the antioxidants in green tea (epigallocatechin gallate and other polyphenols) inhibit the antitumour effects of the agents used to treat multiple myeloma. Another revelation that will not make it into "Natural News", I bet. Perhaps the talk of anticancer effects from green tea...

http://health.yahoo.com/news/afp/healthusscienceaidstea_20090519184133.html Could green tea prevent hiv-infection? Well, its in the news so it must be true. Still, i have my doubts. And the idea that it could be an alternative preventative for the third world... sounds almost as irresponsible...
