    :) Well, since I'm not writing a book report I didn't realize I had to provide you with sources just to share my opinion on spices.

    http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/cancer/expert-answers/curcumin/faq-20057858

    Here's a link if that makes your day. As I said, do a google search and there's lots of information about spices that may have beneficial impact on your health. This link talks about Turmeric (Curcumin is in Turmeric) and as I said it is SAID to prevent cancer. I suspect if it were a sure fire cure they'd have packaged it up long ago in pill form and begun charging an arm and a leg. There are lots of things that have health benefits that haven't been fully studied yet. Why is that so far fetched or mean I believe everything on the internet? You don't have to be snarky. You don't have to agree. OP asked what we thought and I shared. Very nicely I might add. :)


    Did you read the first sentence in the third paragraph? Antioxidants..... Blueberries, yogurt, as well as other foods provide antioxidants. Do they help cure/fight/prevent cancer? As for garlic. Yes garlic helps with potential stress reduction; some people smell like chicken droppings when they eat too much and people avoid them.

    Nope didn't read any of it. :)

    I'm not surprised; it is your link and you didn't review it. Turmeric seems interesting enough I purchased some this weekend. I'll figure out how to use it with some frequency. If you think a few dietary changes will prevent cancer have at it. We cut it, kill it, or burn it. Not much has changed in the case of Cancer and maintenance; so food options may or not prove to be anything more then a rabbit hole but if they continue research then fantastic.

    I was joking. I did read it, and it supported exactly what I claimed. I'm not sure if you've heard of sarcasm before.

    Also I linked other sites that nobody is interested in reading either. LOL

    I have to say, I love the profile picture. It's like your baby is trying to run away yelling "This is my mother? Awww fk, get me out of here......or I'm doomed!"

    That's awesome :) You must be a real upstanding person to basically call me a bad mother and decide my child hates me ... over spices.

    I'm sure it's not you, just your snotty know it all, know nothing Google warrior attitude.

    Also, she said stop feeding mashed kale. It's disgusting and she isn't a hippie.

    Why should I be crying because I don't really care if a couple folks in an internet forum pick on me?

    You're a peach. :)

    I did read the pubmed link you provided. But it doesn't really say anything one way or another. It's very much "we should recommend this when more research has been done".

    Your source says there is not enough evidence to state it prevents cancer. How does that prove anything other than there isn't enough evidence?

    Spices are good, unless we are talking spice girls. Then they are bad.

    I don't want to be friends anymore.

    OMG! Wow! Sorry, couldn't hear the sarcasm in your voice...oh wait. In the future, writing (sarcasm) after a post you want the gen pop to know is sarcastic really helps.
