Cancer screening gets a smack
Cancer screening, cancer screening, cancer screening,
cancer screening...
For years, that has been the relentlessly wrong public
message. You can't even turn on a TV or radio without
hearing some celebrity, athlete or other public figure
lecture you about the supposed importance of getting
screened for breast or prostate cancer.
Now, the same people who started beating that drum have
finally realized they're playing the wrong tune. The
American Cancer Society is revising its position on
screenings, admitting that recommending them for everyone
has led to over-treatment.
It's about time.
The problems with these screenings are so well-documented
that only severe denial has allowed them to go on for so
long... that, of course, and the rising fees collected by
hospitals, clinics and doctors that do the screenings and
carry out the surgeries.
You see, if cancer screenings worked, then each early
treatment would be matched statistically by one fewer
cancer death down the road in long-term studies.
But... whoops. That hasn't happened.
Instead, the long-term studies show just one half of that
equation: A big jump in cancer treatments, but only a
slight drop (if any) in cancer deaths later on.
So the American Cancer Society has finally opened its eyes
and recognized the elephant in the room, and the New York
Times reports that they are crafting a new policy on
screening that all but admits they were wrong.
"We don't want people to panic," Dr. Otis Brawley, the
organization's chief medical officer, told the New York
Times. "But I'm admitting that American medicine has
overpromised when it comes to screening. The advantages to
screening have been exaggerated."
Bravo to Dr. Brawley for some rare honesty... but he's a few
years too late. Cancer turned into panic when everyone
started getting screened and found out that, in many cases,
they had cancer.
Too often, those were cancers that people have always had,
but didn't know about. These cancers grow so slowly or have
such a slow risk of spreading that they rarely put anyone
at risk. What the patients didn't know, didn't kill them.
But now, an entire generation of men and women have had to
live with the trauma and side effects of cancer diagnoses
and surgeries that they never needed to begin with.
That's not a mistake. That's a shame.

Just a spoonful of sugar... and a slice of lemon
If you like your green tea with lemon and a hint of sugar,
then consider yourself lucky – because you're getting the
greatest benefit of all, even if you don't realize it.
Researchers were looking for a more efficient way to study
green tea's effect on animals. And they stumbled upon the
secret to really enhancing this elixir's near-magical
powers: sugar and ascorbic acid.
Combined, the two help the body increase its absorption of
catechins, the polyphenols at the heart of green tea's
benefits. In fact, sugar and ascorbic acid can help get
three times as many catechins into the bloodstream as
drinking green tea by itself.
And a great source of ascorbic acid – a form of vitamin C –
is one that many people already use to enhance the flavor
of their tea: lemon. If you don't like lemon, don't worry –
you can get the same effect by drinking a cup of juice rich
in vitamin C along with your tea.
I told you about some of the latest studies on green tea
just a couple of weeks ago, and how the benefits seem to
cover everything from weight loss to longer lives.
That list is already a long and impressive one... but would
you believe that in the two weeks since I wrote that, it's
gotten even longer? A kettleful of studies have emerged
lately, showing that green tea may:
* cut psychological stress by as much as 20 percent;
* reduce the risk of death by pneumonia in women by 47
percent;
* lower the risk of all types of blood cancer by 42
percent;
* decrease the risk of lymphoid system cancers by 48
percent; and
* lower the risk of gum disease. One study under way is looking at the
possibility that
green tea may help clear the HPV virus, lowering the risk
for cervical cancer (and, if true, eliminate the need for
potentially harmful HPV vaccines).
The best way to get your green tea is to brew a fresh cup,
add a drop a sugar – don't go overboard, sugar is still bad
for you – and squeeze a fresh wedge of lemon into it. Avoid
prepackaged green tea mix and bottled teas with added sugar
and lemon flavor – it's not the same thing (and who knows
if there's any actual lemon in that flavoring).
You'll also want to drink it a couple of times a day to get
the biggest boost – many of the studies are from Japan,
which found the benefits really kick in at five cups a day...
that's around two or three U.S. mugs.
A lot of tea? Sure.
But you get a lot of benefits in return.
On a mission for your health,
