I have to tell you, I am appalled at the recent issues with the NCI study and its supposed link to fish oil and advanced prostate cancer. I have already ridiculed the authors, but in case it was not clear, let me restate it in the clearest way possible: I think the authors, particularly the

Surely I must be dying and this must be my last chance to write you in my physical form. Any further communications you receive from my blogs, emails, personal notes-any further stage presentations or lectures must be coming from my ghost or perhaps an evil impostor trying to steal my identity. I say this because

There are some serious issues with the way resveratrol is being marketed. A few years ago it was touted as a telomerase inhibitor and NOT to be taken with TA-65. Now there are claims that it is a telomerase activator and at least 1 study in vitro that suggests that this might be the case.
