Curry spice may help cancer fight

A spice used in curry may help prevent people from developing cancer of the gullet, researchers in Swansea believe.
Some patients at Morriston Hospital in the city at risk from oesophageal cancer will be given curcumin tablets.

It follows laboratory trials at Swansea University that showed the compound found in turmeric blocked a protein that helped the disease develop.
