一、红茶可能有助于防癌 据研究人员说，喝茶对健康有一系列好处，现在又多了一个好处：一天一杯茶能大幅降低患癌症的风险，它可以使肿瘤缩小。 正文： Drinking tea has a number of health benefits. Now, add one more to the list — a cup of the beverage a day can help slash the risk of developing cancer by shrinking tumors, say researchers. 《印度时报》网站6月19日报道：据研究人员说，喝茶对健康有一系列好处，现在又多了一个好处：一天一杯茶能大幅降低患癌症的风险，它可以使肿瘤缩小。 Previous research has already linked teas healthy antioxidant properties and high flavonoid content to cutting the risk of some cancers as well as heart disease. 以前的研究已经表明，茶具有健康的抗氧化性，和高含量的类黄酮，降低了患某些癌症和心脏病的风险。 Now, a new study has shown that black tea could help prevent cancer. In the study, US researchers analyzed the compound theaflavin-2 (TF-2), found only in black tea and oolong Chinese tea, which has been shown to kill cancer cells. 现在，一项新研究显示，红茶可能有助于防癌。在这项研究中，美国研究人员对仅在红茶和中国乌龙茶中发现的茶黄素-2(TF-2)进行了分析。结果显示它能杀死癌细胞。 The study explored how TF-2 induced cancer cell death and found that it caused such cells to shrink within three hours. When the researchers looked at a specific set of genes that kill cancer cells, TF-2 was found to activate the genes. 研究人员仔细查看了TF-2是如何导致癌细胞死亡的，并发现它能在3小时内使此类细胞缩小。当研究人员看到一组杀死癌细胞的特殊基因时，他们发现是TF-2激活了这组基因。 The study also showed that TF-2 can suppress the activity of a gene that sparks an inflammatory enzyme known as COX2 while also reducing the activity of other inflammatory molecules, the “Daily Express” reported. 英国《每日快报》报道，研究还发现TF-2能抑制一种基因的活动，这种基因可激发一种已知名为C O X 2的酶，同时TF-2还能降低其他炎性分子的活动。 Tim Bond of the Tea Advisory Panel in the UK said: (The study) has demonstrated that components of black tea can help shrink and kill cancer cells and/or result in helping to reduce the number of tumors. 英国饮茶顾问小组委员会的蒂姆?邦德说：“（研究）表明红茶中的成分有助于缩小并杀死癌细胞，因此有助于减少肿瘤数量。” 二、研究表明：乙肝妈妈可以放心进行母乳喂养 Breast-feeding is ok for hepatitis B moms Mothers with hepatitis B are not more likely to infect their newborn by breast-feeding so long as their child has been properly vaccinated for the disease, a new study by Fudan University suggests. 据《环球时报》19日报道，复旦大
