"The Fruit That Might Prevent Prostate Cancer Spread and.....

          How Did A Doctor Ever Get On TV Anyway?"

Michael Breen M.D. was the medical reporter for WBBM-TV for seven years. Now he works with physicians, hospitals, and research firms. A recent UCLA study suggests pomegranate juice can help prevent the recurrence of prostate cancer following surgery or radiation. Now Chicago has become a site for a larger nationwide study. Dr. Breen will talk about this new research and he'll also give a sometimes humorous "behind-the-scenes" look at local TV news.
