Hot! Hot! Hot! This week we’re all over cancer fighting, chemo palate beating spicy food! Our friend Ruth loves all things spicy. Sometimes you can’t even eat her food without having a jug of milk nearby for salvation. This version of Ruth’s Spicy Pepper Pasta was toned down quite a bit, but it’s still got a great kick. If you are one of those who crave spicy food during chemo this dish is for you. Although great year round as is, if it’s summer go ahead and add in some fresh basil the last minute or so of cooking.

Eating a plate of Spaghetti with Clams is one of the joys of being on vacation in Italy, and as you can see below, it’s super easy to make when you get home. This is a good thing, as clams are nutritional, cancer fighting powerhouses. They outperform steak and liver for iron, and are rich in phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese and selenium too. Our North American clams, like most things American, are a little bigger than their Italian counterparts, so for this yummy pasta dish use smaller sized clams like littlenecks. Nonetheless they may still take a little longer to pop open when you cook them, so be patient. The rewards are worth it. And since seafood pastas aren’t traditionally eaten with cheese, if you like, toss the pasta and clams together with a couple of tablespoons of toasted whole wheat breadcrumbs. Enjoy!.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

A series of experiments with highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza (HPAI H5N1) viruses circulating in infected U.S. dairy cattle found that viruses derived from lactating dairy cattle induced severe disease in mice and ferrets when administered via intranasal inoculation. The virus from the H5N1-infected cows bound to both avian (bird) and human-type cellular receptors, but, importantly, did not transmit efficiently among ferrets exposed via respiratory droplets.

A new study led by researchers at the American Cancer Society (ACS) finds four in 10 cancer cases and about one half of all cancer deaths in adults 30 years old and older in the United States (or 713,340 cancer cases and 262,120 cancer deaths in 2019) could be attributed to modifiable risk factors, including cigarette smoking, excess body weight, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, diet, and infections.
