Strange Cures And Treatments For Cancer

Soursop

Soursop is a fruit present in the Caribbean, Mexico, as well as Central and South America. The effect of this plant in the body is reportedly ten thousand times more powerful than chemotherapy, though the soursop acts on the damaged cells without affecting healthy ones. Artemisinin, a substance present in this fruit is responsible for inhibiting the membrane of cancer cells, stopping their growth and eventually cause death (apoptosis). However, there are some experts who argue while soursop can act fighting cancer cells, evidence of its application to human health is not yet sufficient to make a concrete claim that it can cure cancer.

Quercetin

Quercetin is a natural pigment present in numerous vegetables, fruits, and grains, and is an abundant source of antioxidants. Quercetin is considered a flavonoid, which are plant compounds commonly found in grains, fruits, vegetables, wine, and tea. Cancer develops when some mechanism damages the DNA of a cell to where it grows and multiplies out of control and forms a malignant tumor. Free radical damage is often responsible for carcinogenesis in an individual's cells.

Quercetin helps neutralize these unstable free radicals in an individual's body, which prevents cellular damage that can trigger a carcinogenic process. Quercetin has also shown in some studies to cause leukemic cells or cancerous blood cells to become cytotoxic and die. Quercetin has also shown efficacy in inducing cytotoxic effects on cancer cells in an individual's breast tissue. An individual affected by certain cancers may benefit from taking quercetin supplements because it may cause the regression of their tumor.
