CNN ticker: A molecule in some tea blocks the HIV virus from spreading.

I just saw this on cnn about ten minutes ago, (right after the Bush speech)

The thread title speaks for itself. I don't have the time right now to find out what it is. Maybe later.

Any thoughts on what it may be???

Interesting, Green tea blocks HIV-related cancer

A Chinese remedy

Nothing on cnn.com about the molecule in question.

...Or maybe the Chinese want to boost their export sales of tea...

That explains why that tea tastes so nasty.

Personnally I like to sit down to some nice Orange spice, or peppermint tea myself.

Gee this story won't last long.

The elite controllers are trying to deep-six the nutritional and supplement industry as speak. They are also waging war against the herbal and non-drug related remedy industry.

Frankly doesn't surprise me, tea is very interesting stuff.

Green tea is one of the most healtiest beverages you can drink. Well, according to my mom, that his. I think that it tastes really bad, but it's still good for you anyways.

Sigh ... it has to be a cosmic joke that something so tasteless as green tea is so good for you

Why not beer!!!

very nice finding, although its coming from italy :]]]...its still unpublished for some reason but the authors older papers on the HIV subject look good with good data...

Simple solutions to major problems will never fly. Scientists will debunk the solution, then use the very same solution in prescription medication and make a ton of money. Will they cure cancer? Will they cure HIV/AIDS? They are scientists and pharmacuticle companies. Probably not, there is no money in a cure. You want people to be able to live with the problem and drug them up with meds that they can barely afford.

In the last little while I've read a ton of stuff about the benefits of tea. I agree, though, this story won't last very long, and it seems more people want an instant fix, which they think they can get through prescription meds.

I like Green Tea sometimes; Green Tea with Kombucha is also good. Kombucha itself is supposed to have some good healing properties.
