Maple Syrup Found to Slow the Growth of Cancerous Cells

John — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 17:24:00 +0000

Maple syrup, that sweet liquid that is so often associated with Canada, may be extremely beneficial to our health. According to a new study that was published in the Journal of Medicinal Food, maple syrup may significantly slow the growth rate of cancer cells, depending on the type of cancer, and despite its sweet taste, it may reduce the risk of diabetes.

Seeram, from the University of Rhode Island, who presented his findings at the American Chemical Society annual meeting in San Francisco, found 13 antioxidants that are believed to possess anti-cancer, anti-bacterial and anti-diabetic properties in maple syrup. These antioxidants were previously not known to be present in the syrup.

Abscisic acid, which is a phytohormone that is known to stimulate insulin release through the pancreatic cells, is found quite abundantly in maple syrup. The release of this insulin increases the sensitivity of fat cells to the insulin, creating a powerful defense to combat metabolic syndrome and diabetes.

Researchers at the Universite du Quebec also conducted a study on the effects of maple syrup. Their findings suggested that prostate and lung cancers may have the growth rate of the cancerous cells slowed tremendously by maple syrup. In fact, their results show that maple syrup may be more effective than blueberries, broccoli, tomatoes, and carrots. Other cancers, such as breast, colon, and brain also experienced a decrease in growth rate, but not to the same extent as prostate and lung cancer.

The Benefits of Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Health experts believe that omega-3 fatty acids are one of the most important nutrients that is missing from the average American’s diet. This omega-3 deficiency has been extensively studied and may be the reason why there are so many of us suffering from heart disease, cancers, and brain disorders. It has even been discovered that when a proper amount of omega-3 is regularly present in the body, these diseases and disorders tend to become less severe, and sometimes vanish completely.

Anti-Aging

New research shows that omega-3s slow down the cell-aging process. This means that omega-3 fatty acids can protect against skin aging on a cellular level, making your skin appear younger and healthier. By incorporating more fish into your diet or using omega-3 supplements, you can slow down the aging process and feel a healthy, more energetic glow.

Acne and Skin Disorders

Omega-3 fish oil is a natural inflammatory substance. One of the main characteristics of acne is that it causes red, swollen spots on the skin. A a balanced, regular intake of omega-3 will help lessen the severity of the acne inflammation and reduce the look of acne and other skin disorders related to inflammation. In addition, the Omega-3 fish oils will improve the look of hair and nails.

Mental health problems

People who have mental imbalances such as depression, anxiety, mood swings, bipolar disorder, postpartum depression, Alzheimer’s disease, ADHD and ADD have been linked to a deficiency in omega-3 fats. Omega-3 fatty acids can naturally improve the function and balance of hormones in your body.

Cancer

Although it seems like Omega-3 can do anything, it cannot cure cancer, but increased intakes of omega-3 fats have been found to help fight against and help prevent cancers such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and ovarian cancer. More studies are currently being conducted in this area.

Cell phone Radiation: Tumors

Amanda — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 16:58:00 +0000

Cell phones have recently been considered as the biggest public health issue since tobacco. Science research has uncovered the risks of cell phone use. They have been suspicious that radiation from cell phones and other wireless devices can cause brain tumors, harm blood cells, and even damage DNA.

A major study by Dr. David Carpenter showed that people who use cell phones double their risk of developing brain cancer and acoustic neuromas. Those who start using a cell phone before the age of 20 were more than five times as likely to develop brain cancer. When you use a cell phone, 70% of the energy (including radiation waves) from the phone is transmitted and absorbed into your head. This may alter the natural electrical activity in the brain for up to an hour after cell use.

Children are at the highest risk of radiation. A child’s brain is not fully developed, and their skull thickness is on average 1 1/2 mm thinner than an adults. This means that the electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is more dangerous to a child because the EMR absorption rate is higher.

Bluetooth and other hands-free headsets are just as bad. These devices require more energy and have higher EMR. A new product called Blue Tube Headset was made specifically to minimize EMR. It’s designed to keep EMR emitting devices as far away from your head as possible, while minimizing the radiation emitted through the device.

To minimize EMR, try to reduce your cell phone/iPhone use, use a land line when possible, turn your cell phone off when it’s not in use, keep you cell phone away from your body, and use safe headset technology!
