Prevention and treatment of pancreatic cancer by curcumin in combination with omega-3 f... - 0 views

  •  
    Mice fed fish oil and curcumin showed a significantly reduced tumor volume, 25% (P < 0.04) and 43% (P < 0.005), respectively, and importantly, a combination of curcumin and fish oil diet showed > 72% (P < 0.0001) tumor volume reduction. Expression and activity of iNOS, COX-2, and 5-LOX are downregulated, and p21 is upregulated in tumor xenograft fed curcumin combined with fish oil diet when compared to individual diets. The preceding results evidence for the first time that curcumin combined with omega-3 fatty acids provide synergistic pancreatic tumor inhibitory properties. \n\nPrevention and treatment of pancreatic cancer by curcumin in combination with omega-3 fatty acids.\nSwamy MV, Citineni B, Patlolla JM, Mohammed A, Zhang Y, Rao CV. \nNutr Cancer. 2008;60 Suppl 1:81-9. \nPMID: 19003584

Cardiovascular event risk in relation to dietary fat intake... : European Journal of Ca... - 0 views

  •  
    The hypothesis that diets rich in total and saturated fat and poor in unsaturated fats increase the risk for cardiovascular disease is still vividly debated. The aim of this study was to examine whether total fat, saturated fat, or unsaturated fat intakes are independent risk factors for cardiovascular events in a large population-based cohort. Conclusions: In relation to risks of cardiovascular events, our results do not suggest any benefit from a limited total or saturated fat intake, nor from relatively high intake of unsaturated fat.
