Ken, I'm certain your picture would really boost sales! I know you're into all the dimensions of Wine. So I thought ... appropriate or not I'd toss this info out ot you. I can tell you this .. there has been some research here at OSU going into Raspberrys for the prevention of oral cancer. There was an announcement yesterday. I didn't get it all and I couldn't find it online yet. Not sure of Blackberrys. I've heard nothing on them. But if you're still planting here's a bit of Info for thought. This one is old but it came from the raspberry comission. red-raspberry.org AUTHOR: Nepka C, Asprodini E, Kouretas D TITLE: Tannins, xenobiotic metabolism and cancer chemoprevention in experimental animals. SOURCE: Eur J Drug Metab Pharmacokinet; 24(2):183-9 1999 UI: 99440448 ABSTRACT: Tannins are plant polyphenolic compounds that are contained in large quantities in food and beverages (tea, red wine, nuts, etc.) consumed by humans daily. It has been shown that various tannins exert broad cancer chemoprotective activity in a number of animal models. This review summarizes the recent literature regarding both the mechanisms involved, and the specific organ cancer models used in laboratory animals. An increasing body of evidence demonstrates that tannins act as both anti-initiating and antipromoting agents. In view of the fact that tannins may be of valid medicinal efficacy in human clinical trials, the present review attempts to integrate results from animal studies, and considers their possible application in humans. This one is more detailed and speaks to OSU and the sources of the compound. Blackberries not mentioned. ellagic-acid.org Nothing wrong with a healthy toast! Cheers! Ray
