Flaxseed shows promise against prostate cancer

04/06/2007 - Daily consumption of flaxseed may stop the growth of prostate cancer tumours, according to research presented this weekend.

Flaxseed,, which is rich in omega 3-fatty acids and fibre-related compounds known as lignans, may interrupt the chain of events that cause cells to divide irregularly and become cancerous, suggest researchers from the Duke University Medical Center in the United States.

Today’s quote:

“My opinion, however, is that they (herbs) are superior 95% of the time to any pharmaceutical drug!”—Dr Willner, M.D.
