Apples may ward off colon cancer
An apple a day may help to keep bowel cancer at bay, say researchers.
The key could be chemicals in the fruit called procyanidins, a team from the French National Institute for Health and Medical Research believe.
These chemicals were shown to significantly reduce the number of precancerous lesions in lab animals.
The research, which could lead to new cancer treatments, was presented at a meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research.
