[QUOTE="jltrent, post: 1828766, member: 21075"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/nutrition/surprising-foods-contain-nutrient-that-improves-immune-response-to-cancer/ar-AA1kmHTH?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=c04420deccc741f08982e889ec35acc5&ei=36[/URL] When it comes to cancer, red meat is often thought to be the bad guy. But new research from the University of Chicago has shown that a nutrient found in red meat and dairy products may support our body's ability to infiltrate and fight off cancer cells. The nutrient in question is called trans-vaccenic acid. TVA is a long-chain fatty acid that our bodies cannot make by themselves. "Circulating TVA in humans is mainly from ruminant-derived foods, including beef, lamb and dairy products such as milk and butter," study author Jing Chen, a professor of medicine at the University of Chicago, told Newsweek. TVA is just one of roughly 700 known food-sourced metabolites that circulate in our blood. In the new study, published in the journal Nature, Chen's team collected these compounds into a database and tested whether any of the molecules could affect the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells.
