Red Wine, Black Tea Polyphenols Modulate Expression of COX-2
Geez–billions of dollars spent on developing and creating the market for a selective COX-2 inhibitor (quite an interesting tale if you follow Mansanto’s “public health” info on the dangers of non-selective COX inhibitors) when we’ve had several compounds that seem to do the same thing already in own kitchen cabinets. Oops…I forgot that you can’t patent and make gobs of money off of wine and tea. This study mainly focuses on the potential anti-cancer abilities of inhibiting certain enzyme systems in the GI tract.
