Tea and Breast Cancer

Speaker: Paul Holmgren, Ph.D., Founder, Dr. Paul’s School of Tea and Health

We will identify three primary forces that drive breast cancer forward. Subsequently, we examine possible ways tea polyphenols stall those forces. We also consider how tea polyphenols may amplify the effectiveness of certain chemotherapeutic agents. We will conclude with a look at caffeine’s possible role in inhibiting cancer cell growth.

By the end of this session you will be able to:

Identify three processes that drive breast cancer forward.
Identify some possible ways black and green tea polyphenols may staff those forces.
Identify how tea polyphenols may amplify the effectiveness of certain chemotherapeutic agents.
Identify a means by which caffeine may slow cancer cell growth.
Identify specific scientific references supporting the above.
