Very interesting article and if not mistaken have seen others (Claudia?) speaking about anti-angiogenesis, which means preventing the growth of blood vessles that feed a tumor.

Any thoughts? checkout the list of some great foods with anti-angiogentic.

    Thanks for the article, Jan. Someone else did post Dr. Li's presentation on TED...but I don't think it was Claudia. It really is quite an interesting concept. I did ask my medical onc about it a couple of weeks ago. She was looking it from a chemo point of view, though, not foods. She confirmed that Avastin is an anti-angiogenic drug. I think I'll ask to see the nutritionist at the center tomorrow when I go for my treatment and ask her about it. According to Dr. Mercola's article, some of what many are eating is on the list. Worth a further look.
