Is it true that the antioxidants in cocoa can help fight cancer?

The catechin antioxidants found in cocoa can impact cells that have already been exposed to so much reactive oxygen species (ROS) that they are damaged, mutated and becoming cancerous. The evidence suggests that that may inhibit existing breast cancer cells from proliferating. Researchers treated experimental animals that developed lung cancer with one of cocoa’s flavanols (proanthocyanidins).

The animals experienced a significant reduction in the incidence and multiplicity of carcinomas. In the case of colon cancer cells, cocoa polyphenols reduced their proliferation by an amazing 70 percent.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
