Nam Dang is a researcher from the University of Florida and colleagues from Japan who has published his findings about the benefits of papaya leaf extract to fight cervical cancer, breast, liver, lung, and pancreas. The researchers used the papaya leaf extract was dried and used as papaya leaf tea.

In research conducted known Dang, papaya leaf extract will produce molecules called TH1 type of cytokines that help improve the body’s immune system. This will support the therapeutic use of the immune system to fight cancer.

Experts say, papaya extract has no toxic effect on normal cells and thus more secure than cancer therapy in general. In his research, 10 types of cancer cell culture and mixed with papaya leaf extract and then observed for 24 hours. Proved, papayas slow the growth of tumor cells in all types of cancer.

Besides consumed as fruit, papaya is also used as traditional medicine, especially by the Aborigines in Australia, the population of Vietnam, and several other Asian countries.

Angiogenesis Foundation Chairman, William Li expressed the red wine and dark chocolate blended with blueberries, garlic, soy and tea can be used as materials for making cancer cells that made no famine has undermined the ability of the body.

“We’ve created a level of food based on the quality of these foods to fight cancer. What we consume every day could be chemotherapy for ourselves,” Li said, as quoted by AFP on Thursday (11/2/2010).

Scientists identify chemical ingredients contained in food. These chemicals have the function to stop the flow of blood supply to the tumor tissue so that cancer cells will be starved which will die.

Li cited a study at Harvard Medical School that showed a man with the consumption of cooked tomatoes a few times a week can reduce the likelihood of prostate cancer as much as 30-50 times.

“There’s a medical revolution that is happening around us. If this is true, it will have an impact on consumer education, food service, public health and insurance institutions,” he added.

Eating a variety of these foods together to make the fight against cancer properties become more effective and powerful. For some people around the world that can not afford cancer drugs, the possibility can make the treatment of cancer through diet as the only best solution to fight the cancer cells in her body.

Currently about a dozen drugs have been used to stop the blood supply to tumors by using the tactics of treatment called anti-angiogenesis “. But almost certainly that the treatment for cancer is not a cheap treatment

Various studies had demonstrated the ability of garlic in preventing and treating cancers, especially those caused by chemical substances harmless, such as prostate cancer, stomach cancer, colorectal (colon and rectum), breast cancer, liver, skin cancer, and lungs cancer.

Garlic Against Cancer
Active substances in garlic include vitamins A, B, C, calcium, potassium, iron, carotene, and selenium. The most dominant in the fight against cancer is allyl sulfur components such as diallyl sulfide, diallyl disulfide, diallyl trisulfide, S-allyl cysteine, S-allylmercaptocysteine, allicin, and ajoene. These substances prevent the formation and activation of nitrosamines in the body, also blocked aflatoxin, azoxymethane, benzo (a) pyrene, etc., all of which are carcinogenic substances (cancer  triggers).

In the next stage of these components may prevent mutation of the gene, inhibiting the proliferation (growth / division) of cancer cells, repair of damaged DNA structures, and even stimulate cancer cells to commit suicide (apoptosis).

On the other side of garlic also acts as an antioxidant, remove toxins from the body, and kill the bacteria Helicobacter pylori that can trigger a variety of stomach cancer.
How to Eat

Of course working active substances garlic depends on many things, such as the land where it grows garlic (effect on the levels of active substances garlic), the composition of other nutrients consumed together with him, also how to prepare and consume onions white itself. Combination with selenium, certain fatty acids (eg linoleic acid), and vitamin A, can increase the ability of garlic to inhibit proliferation and increase apoptosis.

But be aware that garlic processing power can be deadly work anticancer substances that. One minute it is processed in the microwave, garlic loses efficacy as anticancer. So even when heated in another cooking process. So what? Should garlic swallowed it raw?

Apparently simple. Mash garlic (thinly sliced) and let stand for 15 minutes before cooking (used as a spice in cooking). Within 15 minutes of it happening chemical reactions that activate anticancer substances allyl groups on the sulfur, which is not damaged even if cooked. But if destroyed immediately after cooking, the chemical reaction that did not happen, automatic properties antikankernya missing.

If you want, garlic can also be consumed raw. But still had to be destroyed once and left for 15 minutes. So what if garlic would be served whole, such as in pickles? Simply peel and cut some corners. Not bad, still have anticancer properties, though not as good as if crushed.
Hazards Potential

Not so easy, using the garlic for the prevention and treatment of cancer? The price is cheap and easily available too. Be warned, however, does not mean that garlic may be consumed at random. Do not think that more and more consumption of garlic, the better the result.

The recommended dose of garlic consumption is 4-5 grams of fresh garlic / day (about 1-2 cloves). If too much, besides causing odor on the breath and skin, sometimes causing allergies, digestive disorders (vomiting, diarrhea, irritability, excessive gas production), bronchial asthma, dermatitis, reduces levels of protein and calcium in the blood, also reducing the production of sperm.

Too much garlic increases the risk of bleeding because of its ability to prevent blood clotting. Therefore, in patients who want or have recently undergone surgery, garlic consumption should be limited.

Garlic also increases enzymes work in the liver to remove toxins from the body. In healthy people this ability is very useful, but be careful, he can also throw the drugs that you swallow and chemotherapy drugs. Your treatment to be futile, is not it? Therefore, if you want to increase the consumption of garlic supplements or use products, consult with your doctor first.

Asbestos is a mineral that form fibers separate easily. The size of the asbestos fibers are very small and delicate. This will make asbestos  fly easily on the air. When inhaled, asbestos will soon enter into the respiratory cavity, and causing various damage.

At least there are three diseases caused by asbestos dust. The first is mesothelioma, the malignant cancer of the lung veil, the veil of the stomach, or the veil of the heart. The second is lung cancer, and the last Asbestosis disease. These diseases are often fatal and lead to death.

Mesothelioma

Asbestos dust that has entered the lungs, will move up to the veil of the lungs. Here, the asbestos dust would damage the DNA of cells covering the lung (mesothelium), consequently disrupted cell growth control. Cells that have become abnormal will divide uncontrollably, and then expand and damage the surrounding tissue.

Lung Cancer

Mechanism incidence of lung cancer due to asbestos dust is similar to mesothelioma cancer. The difference, which is affected by airway wall (bronchiolus). Initially limited to damage the lungs, and then at an advanced stage can metastasize to other organs.

Asbestosis

Asbestos dust can also cause irritation to the tissue and lung sheath. As a result of irritation, scar tissue will form a stiff. This network will gradually expand and thicken so that the lungs can no longer expand and deflate like a normal lung. This situation will lead to a variety of symptoms such as difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, cough, and chest pain. In addition, blood flow lungs will also be blocked, forcing the heart to work harder. Over time, the heart will be enlarged. The emergence of scar tissue in the lungs due to asbestos dust called Asbestosis.
