Interesting article about Soursop cancer treatment…!
I think you will find this post quite fascinating, it is truly amazing the things that are claimed as natural cures for major diseases such as cancer.
I have done a little research on the Soursop cancer treatments and they all seem quite well founded: I have put a couple of links at the bottom of the post in case you would like to look into it further.
It has a variety of names such as Soursop, Guanábano, Catuche, Catoche, Anona Mexico, Graviola, Anona India, Mole, and many more besides.
Annona muricata is it’s official botanical name.
It grows in tropical areas in Central America and South America, and especially in the Amazon.
The fruit is very delicate dark green covered with soft spines. Is relatively large and very thin shell. Should be harvested before they mature. The flesh is white, creamy, meaty, juicy and slightly acidic, measuring 2-3 cm long, can weigh 2.5 kg.
All plant parts are used in natural medicine, including bark, leaves, roots and fruits, but the part that contains the greatest concentration of active ingredient is the leaf.
Studies and findings
In 1976, Dr. Jerry McLaughlin at Purdue University discovered the ANONACEA GRAVIOLA acetogenins, powerful Anti-Cancer. Continued this research at the National Institute of Cancer proving its effectiveness in cancer colon and prostate.
A study from Purdue University in California, showed that acetogenins can selectively inhibit the growth of cancer cells and also inhibit the growth of tumor cells resistant to adriamycin (chemotherapeutic drug).
In another study conducted by scientists at the University, it was shown that acetogenins soursop (graviola) are extremely powerful having an ED 50 (lethal dose 50) of up to 10 to 9 micrograms per milliliter, resulting have 10,000 times the potency of adriamycin .
There are several studies on anonacina, the compound of the soursop that have anticancer effects.
However, those studies were only performed in vitro or in vivo in animals, there being still no clinical studies in humans.
One reason cited for the lack of human clinical studies is the fact that you can not patent a plant, leading to the laboratories that sponsor research studies to focus on active ingredients, Annonaceae acetogenins, instead of the plant .
Studies were made of soursop compared to the effect with adriamycin (known chemoteherapeutic). It was found that is 10000 times more potent, and kills cancer cells without harming healthy cells as occurs with chemotherapy, which also causes nausea, weight loss and hair loss, protects and elevates the immune system.
Some of the recommended uses are:
- Anti-tumor
- Anti-carcinogenic
- Anti-spasmodic
- Sedative
- Fight Asthma
- Combating Hypertension
- Combating Diabetes
- Correcting liver disorders
