SHR # 2623 :: High Flavanol Diet May Lead to Lower Blood Pressure + Pathogens in the Mouth Lead to Oral Cancer - Prof. Gunter Kuhnle Dr. Yvonne L. Kapila, DDS, Ph.D. - People who consume a diet including flavanol-rich foods and drinks, including tea, apples and berries, could lead to lower blood pressure, according to the first study using objective measures of thousands of UK residents' diet. PLUS Pathogens found in tissues that surround the teeth contribute to a highly aggressive type of oral cancer, according to a study published 1st October in the open-access journal PLOS Pathogens by Yvonne Kapila of the University of California, San Francisco, and colleagues. In addition, the study showed that oral cancer formation mediated by the pathogens is inhibited by a bacteriocin - an antimicrobial and probiotic peptide that is produced by bacteria.
