Can We Eat To Starve Cancer?

http://www.ted.com/talks/william_li.html?source=facebook&fb_source=message#.T5Lm_qb-0TC.facebook

William Li presents a new way to think about treating cancer and other diseases: anti-angiogenesis, preventing the growth of blood vessels that feed a tumor. The crucial first (and best) step: Eating cancer-fighting foods that cut off the supply lines and beat cancer at its own game.
William Li heads the Angiogenesis Foundation, a nonprofit that is re-conceptualizing global disease fighting.

"The obvious thing is to think about what we could remove from our diet. But I took a completely opposite approach and began asking: What could we be adding to our diet that could boost the body’s defense system? In other words, can we eat to starve cancer?” (William Li)
