Soooo very tasty and now they say it kills the bad cancers! WoopWoop! So, who's going to be joining me in a nice Lamb Tikka Karahi and maybe a chicken Jalfrezi?

"Rates of oesophageal cancer have gone up by more than a half since the 70s and this is thought to be linked to rising rates of obesity, alcohol intake and reflux disease so finding ways to prevent this disease is important too."

Now I am no Doctor but has anyone thought about eating and drinking less …just a thought. It is turmeric that helps apparently

'now they say it kills the bad cancers'

are there good cancers? like good and bad AIDS?

"Rates of oesophageal cancer have gone up by more than a half since the 70s and this is thought to be linked to rising rates of obesity, alcohol intake and reflux disease."

So that would be all those Curries we've started eating since the 70's 🙂

Yep, that's the one! Should have been "teh bad cancers" for proper effect! 😉

I thought this was going to be a programming topic….too much assignment for my brain to handle at the moment!

The onward march of the Media trying to divide the world into "stuff that gives you cancer" and "Stuff that cures cancer" continues…

"stuff that gives you cancer" and "Stuff that cures cancer"

What. You mean to say there is other stuff too? Like stuff that has no bearing on cancer either way? Nah, never…

Guillemots cause cancer. Cormorants cure cancer.

What about a Shag?

depends on who

Didn't have you down as a kaiser chiefs fan flash?

What about a Shag?

Shags in small amount cure cancer but in large amounts are highly carcinogenic. Like moorhens, but not coots. Coots are full of antioxidants which don't cure cancer but they keep it at bay, unless of course you eat too many coots, in which case you may well develop Alzheimers due to the high aluminium content in Coots' beaks. Interestingly enough, they also have a bad sense of direction, unlike geese and ducks whose beaks have a high iron filings contents. Swans have neither. But swans really do give you cancer.
