Now the toxin in bee venom has been harnessed to kill tumor cells by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. The researchers attached the major component of bee venom to nano-sized spheres that they call nanobees. http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/828.html 2009-08-11T02:50:00-04:00 2009-08-11T02:50:00-04:00 admin Findings will hopefully lead to therapies to combat the disease http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/465.html 2009-06-25T01:29:00-04:00 2009-06-25T01:29:00-04:00 admin LA JOLLA, CA-Experiment after experiment confirms that a diet on the brink of starvation expands lifespan in mice and many other species. But the molecular mechanism that links nutrition and survival is still poorly understood. Now, researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies have identified a pivotal role for two enzymes that work together to determine the health benefits of diet restriction. http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/407.html 2009-06-18T13:18:00-04:00 2009-06-18T13:18:00-04:00 admin Stroke can impair balance, heightening the risk of a debilitating fall.

They also showed that the combination can be effective in treating various types of cancer. http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/319.html 2009-06-04T16:01:00-04:00 2009-06-04T16:01:00-04:00 admin Novel Herbal Therapy for Men at High Risk of Prostate Cancer – Phase 1 Results http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/237.html 2009-05-28T14:44:00-04:00 2009-05-28T14:44:00-04:00 admin ROCHESTER, Minn. — Mayo Clinic researchers are reporting positive results in early leukemia clinical trials using the chemical epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), an active ingredient in green tea. http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/233.html 2009-05-28T14:34:00-04:00 2009-05-28T14:34:00-04:00 admin John Pastor -- University of Florida researchers have learned more about how smallpox conducts its deadly business — discoveries that may reveal as much about the human immune system as they do about one of the world's most feared pathogens. http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/232.html 2009-05-28T14:30:00-04:00 2009-05-28T14:30:00-04:00 admin "Vaccinating" roundworms can teach humans about connections between immunity, longevity and the nervous system, scientists say. http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/139.html 2009-05-20T02:04:00-04:00 2009-05-20T02:04:00-04:00 admin Chinese data unraveled at University of Oregon show a training technique has brain, physiological linkage http://www.healthnewswire.net/alternative_medicine/133.html 2009-05-20T01:29:00-04:00 2009-05-20T01:29:00-04:00 admin People with cancer can reduce post-chemotherapy nausea by 40 percent by using ginger supplements, along with standard anti-vomiting drugs, before undergoing treatment, according to scientists at the University of Rochester Medical Center.
