Eat more curry !

I read an interesting article about cancer last week but decided to share it only today.

We all heard about green tea and berries drink contains antioxident to prevent cancer. Now we have the latest "food" added to the list; Curry

MOLECULES found in curry ingredients have been shown to kill oesophageal cancer cells in the laboratory, reveals research published in the British Journal of Cancer today (Wednesday).


Yup you heard it correctly, eating curry kills oesophageal(Food pipe) cancer cells. What is better than eating something you enjoy with the benefits of curing the illness you have?

Each year around 7,800 people are diagnosed with oesophageal cancer in the UK - around 160 of these are in Northern Ireland. Less than 20 per cent of people survive oesophageal cancer beyond five years. It is the sixth most common cause of cancer death and accounts for around five per cent of all UK cancer deaths.


If this is true, then i'll say india and singapore will have almost 0 patients with oesophageal cancer because who doesn't like roti prata(only in Sg)? fish head curry? chicken curry? hmm mutton curry anyone?

Can we expect more delicious food with cancer fighting properties in the future?
