Authoritative Information on 'Herbs' (?)

[Guest guest]

Hi folks:

This might be a useful site for authoritative information on herbs

(part of the Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center website):

http://www.mskcc.org/mskcc/html/11570.cfm

Note that from their list of studies on curcumin, a prominent

component of turmeric, it probably should be added to the list of

items likely conferring protection against colon cancer.

Turmeric was actually singled out by the people using chemotherapy as a no-no because it interferes with the ROS, which is excited by chemotherapy to kill the cancer.

Confusing isn't it?

Regards.
