Asparagus to fight cancer?

I got an email from a friend which had attachments regarding the benifit of asparagus for cancer patients.
Apparently, taking cooked or canned asparagus, pureeing it in the blender and then taking 4 tablespoons twice daily has some anicdotal evidence in helping cancer patients. I say helping, not curing.
Of course, you can use more, since it is not toxic (unless you are allergic).
Just thought I would share...for those who like their veggies...can't hurt. Check with your doctor if you are on any blood thinners to make sure it is acceptable.
