counseling for the national
Swedish downhill ski and ice
hockey teams, Dr. Nylander be-
lieves nutritional medicine can
promote optimal performance as
well as addressing certain mal-
adies.
"I'm convinced," he said, "that
different fatty acids are the key to
optimal performance in combina-
tion with antioxidants."
Accordingly, he has devised
supplement strategies for Scan-
dinavian athletes as well as recre-
ational fitness buffs.
In Scandinavia, where en-
durance athletes are among the
world's elite, supplementation to
optimize athletic performance fil-
ters down to the ordinary jogger,
he said.
"We have a special day pack in
Sweden," he said. "We work with
fish oils in combination with
evening primrose oil. But we use
only the best primrose oil — cold-
pressed, cultivated without pesti-
cides.
"It's very important to read the
label."

Angiogenesis is the rapid growth of blood vessels.
Though normally reserved for such things as injuries
and fetal development, cancerous cells pirate the
process to build blood supplies for themselves.
El
A tumor signals
to a nearby vessel,
asking the vessel to
grow in that direction.

The vessel branches off, grows (angiogenesis) and
supplies the tumor with blood. The growing tumor repeats
the process. New drugs promise to halt the angiogenic
process, stalling tumors
or even killing them.
