Increasing dietary intake of the antioxidant vitamins C, E, and selenium could help cut the risk of developing pancreatic cancer by up to two thirds, suggests research published online in the journal Gut.

What I found particularly interesting was the data in these two paragraphs:
“Antioxidants may neutralize the harmful by-products of metabolism and normal cell activity — free radicals — and curb genetically programmed influences, as well as stimulating the immune system response, explain the authors.”
“Other trials using antioxidant supplements have not produced such encouraging results, but this may be because food sources of these nutrients may behave differently from those found in supplements, they say.”
Hort Research is the preeminent antioxidant research facility in the world. The scientists there explain that not only are the ORAC scores of individual foods important, what is even more valuable is how well the antioxidants present in the foods are absorbed into the blood stream. Their experiments reveal that consuming multiple foods with high antioxidant values (cacao, acai, camu camu and goji berries were the ones they tested) results in a synergistic effect that may triple the absorption of the antioxidants (found in both foods) into the blood.
Sort of reinforces the wisdom of putting 138 antioxidant ingredients together into one food bar doesn’t it?

Of all the posts I make, this one is arguably one of the most important for the preservation of individual liberty in the face of tyranny.
For if every crime was brought before a jury who were accurately informed that they had the power to find that a person “deed the deed” but they could declare him “not guilty”, tyrannical laws would dissolve as fast as a thimble of fine dust in a fast running stream.
This is why the corrupt judiciary are as keen as the crooked legislature to minimise instances trial by jury where ever they can.
Don’t fall for the “I don’t have time” or “It’s not as important as…” For if you don’t make the time or elevate the priority then preserving your freedom might soon be an option in which you wish you still had the chance to partake!
