@drcopp True, but KIFC1 proteins are produced by a GENE. You’re not gonna suppress a gene by eating a sprig of broccoli or even a bucket of the stuff. Maybe if they could truly isolate and amplify what it is that makes broccoli so magical in terms of longevity (BTW George HR Bush HATED the stuff and lived well into his 90’s) they could call it ‘chemo’ and maybe do some good.
I happen to love broccoli and I often eat it with pasta, garlic and pancetta; I figure the broccoli/garlic neutralizes the pasta/pancetta if I was keeping score on a kill me/cure me basis…😉.

Actually - yes, there are multiple studies that show that certain substances in food do activate or block gene expression. (epigenetics) This means that a person's diet can change how their genes are expressed, influencing various bodily processes like metabolism, inflammation, and cell growth.
