Conjugated Linoleic Acid CLA Controls Cancer Reduces TNF

Cancer Control
Another report, this time from the great Dr. Michael W. Pariza*, who has been in the forefront of research into the advanced use of food for health, highlights again the use of CLA (see article above,) both for cancer and for weight control.

"CLA may influence the development and progression of cancer in three ways," Pariza and his colleagues Park & Cook report. "by directly affecting the process of carcinogenesis; by reducing excessive body fat accumulation which indirectly influences cancer risk; and by reducing 'the wasting process associated with advanced cancer and with some cancer treatments.]"

What's new here and perhaps revolutionary, is that they have found that the key to all this may be the reduction in TNF-a** as the basic mechanism that may cause or increase the growth of tumor cells plus other harmful actions.
