My hoby horse - the differential impacts of omega threes and sixes.
MIND BOGGOLING??!!
ESSENTIALLY -TUMOUR REDUCTION
high omega six diet plus raduation = low omega six high omega three with no radiation (with additional advantage no radiation effects and continued as long as diet did, where vascularisation returned after RT)
Thought provoking, with potential consequences of a funadmantal nature, both for patients and and the medical "industry", but in rather different directions?
It is in mice and caution is essential.
Wouldnt it be useful if they did a trial in humans monitoring the tumours for change by biopsy or similar to see if there is anything in it if it is possible.

ABSTRACT
"What then are the possible factors involved in the observed decrease in tumor growth rate due to the different treatment protocols? The data on blood vessel volume density indicate that either IR alone or the n-3 diet alone were equally effective at reducing the density of blood vessels in the tumors compared to that of the non-irradiated corn oil fed group. The IR treatment alone in the corn oil fed group suppressed tumor blood vessel volume density as assessed one day after the end of IR therapy. With time, the volume density of blood vessels in the tumors of the IR treated, corn oil fed group recovered to the level of that of the tumors in the corn oil fed non-irradiated group. However, the combination of the n-3 fatty acid diet and the IR continued to suppress the density of blood vessels in the tumors for 22 days after IR treatment ended."
