...stage IV metastatic breast cancer, which had continued to progress despite an average of four rounds of standard treatment, including chemo and hormone therapy. The patients took 12 g a day of Ban Zhi Lian, a dose that's three times more concentrated than the amount found in a cup of brewed tea. After about a year, 25% of the patients saw stabilization in their disease for 90 days, and 19% for 180 days. The experimenters say BZL101 works by preventing cancer cells from undergoing glycolysis, a process of glycogen breakdown that accounts for as much as 85% of cancer...

Chak De India is not your average Bollywood blockbuster. The film, released on August 10, may star Shah Rukh Khan, but the A-list heartthrob plays a disgraced field-hockey player who redeems himself by coaching the Indian women's hockey team to win the world cup. Khan doesn't get to show any cool dance moves while wooing a beautiful female lead, or display his well-toned muscles in fight sequences with bad guys.
