A reliable information source for advances in research and technology is the website TED . One impressive May 2010 posting is a 20 minutes speech by Dr. William Li who presents a new way to think about treating cancer and other diseases. He introduces the concept eloquently on "anti-angiogenesis : preventing the growth of blood vessels that feed a tumor". To my delight, the benefit of tea drinking is used in his PowerPoint presentation to illustrate "the crucial first (and best) step to promote anti-angiogenesis by cutting off the supply lines (for cancer growth) and beat cancer at its own game". Moreover, the synergy effect of tea combination is highlighted. What a good incentive for my blog readers to try out new teas!
