NEW STUDIES 1
The Kyolic Garlic & Aerobic Fitness Trial
Arterial stiffness is a cardiovascular risk factor, which increases naturally with age. Kyolic garlic has been shown to improve the flexibility of arteries, and slows down blood flow, which may improve oxygen uptake, associated with aerobic fitness.

Monitoring treatment effect of photo-dynamic therapy using a lightbed (Light-bed-PDT) in cancer patients by Circulating Tumour Cell (CTC) analysis
Background
Prevalence of cancer diagnosis is high and attributable to 30% of all deaths in Australia. There is a need for better treatment combined with reliable assessments of treatment effectiveness. This pilot intervention study aims to assess the treatment effectiveness and safety of Light-bed-PDT for patients with cancer using Circulating Tumour Cell (CTC) specimen analyses.
What is Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)
PDT consists of two steps, the oral administration of a chlorophyll-based algal-derived food-grade liquid photosensitiser (Step 1), followed by LED light therapy the next day (Step 2). The photosensitiser has been shown to concentrate in cancer cells, and is activated by light from Light Emitting Diodes (LED) inducing cancer cell death, while also stimulating the immune system.
