    PUFA Required/essential For Cancer; Stearic Acid Is A PUFA Antagonist & Anti-cancer

    Two studies showing that PUFA (linoleic) acid is essential for cancer development. As the studies show, cancer cells accumulate large quantities of oleic acid and the saturation index (SI) - i.e. ratio of stearic/oleic acids in erythrocytes (RBC) is very low in cancer. This SI can also be used...
