Chinese black tea is made from the leaves of the tea shrub (Camellia sinensis) after the processes of withering, rolling, fermenting, and drying.
In the study, CBTE significantly promoted hair growth after two weeks of topical application in shaved six week-old male mice.

Anthony Henry and Willie Underwood III have a lot in common.
Both are Black men whose gene pool originated in West Africa, suggesting higher risks for aggressive prostate cancer. Both of their fathers were diagnosed with prostate cancer. Henry s father was diagnosed at age 64 and died at 68 from prostate cancer, and Underwood s dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer in his early 70s and is still alive at 81.
Both sons were diagnosed with prostate cancer at a young age: Underwood at 48 and Henry at 54.
Underwood in 2012 was diagnosed with a Gleason 3+4, known today as a favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer. He qualified in some protocols for active surveillance (AS), monitoring the disease with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests, digital rectal exams, biopsies, and multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging.

In a review of national firearm data spanning more than 20 years, researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have identified alarming trends regarding increasing rates of firearm-related deaths among some of America s youngest residents.
According to lead researcher Archie Bleyer, M.D., the rate of unintentional firearm deaths in children ages 1 - 4 increased exponentially at an average annual percent of 4.9 between 1999 and 2018, with the greatest impact among non-Hispanic Black and White children. This rate is more than eight times higher than any other highly developed country worldwide. What is perhaps most distressing about these findings, is that nearly 90% of these instances took place in or near the victims home, and 100% of the events were preventable, says Bleyer, a clinical research professor in the Department of Radiation Medicine, OHSU Knight Cancer Institute, OHSU School of Medicine.
