From the BBC:
Scientists have discovered the key to the ability of spicy foods to kill cancer cells.
They found capsaicin, an ingredient of jalapeno peppers, triggers cancer cell death by attacking mitochondria - the cells' energy-generating boiler rooms.
The research raises the possibility that other cancer drugs could be developed to target mitochondria.
The Nottingham University study features in Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications.
The study showed that the family of molecules to which capsaicin belongs, the vanilloids, bind to proteins in the cancer cell mitochondria to trigger apoptosis, or cell death, without harming surrounding healthy cells.

'Olbersh..forbrains' shows nothing but jealousy for how well Fox news, Bill Oreilly and Sean Hannity. He always has Oreilly at the number one spot in worlds worst people and that shows what alittle immature baby he is. He's jealous because Fox news is number one in cable news and MSNBC is ranked somewhere behind Japanese cooking. The only people that watch his idiocy or other morons who want to destroy this great country. He makes me sick. Hes a punk and needs to jump off the San Francisco Bay bridge but don't count on anyone bothering to get a video..it wouldnt be worth anything. OH and all you libs can join him and do it while the tide is comin in so you can add the stink of your worthless bodies to the already sickening smells of the rotten liberal democrat city.
