Butter replacements were then good. Now they appear to be getting a bad rap.
Now butter is back to being good.
This is only one example - it also depends on what companies are sponsoring the research and what conclusions they are trying to get to support their product advertising and sales.
It sounds like the HA is a component of the pancreas tumor cell ecosystem - not like it causes the cancer - but it might be a help to the tumor cells and their survival. It is therefore being researched as a drug delivery vector that could target the cancer cells directly and selectively.
This is a good news story not a doom and gloom moment.
Carry on with your supplements and beauty serums. As soon as there is statistical data to prove a cancer link THEN hit the panic switch and order a special trash pick up.
