Ginger - A Cancer Killer In Your Kitchen

 

 
A Cancer Killer in your Kitchen
 By John Susan Saradon.
 
The powerful healing effects of ginger have been well documented. It's a
proven remedy for upset stomach. Reams of studies show that it inhibits
inflammation. And there is substantial evidence that it fights cancer, too.
 
For instance, a recent University of Michigan study showed that when ginger
was added to ovarian cancer cells in the laboratory, it caused the cancer
cells to self-destruct (a process known as 'apoptosis').
 
In a separate study at the University of Minnesota, researchers injected
colon cancer cells into mice that were bred to have no immune system.
Half of these mice were routinely fed gingerol, the main active component
in ginger. The researchers found that the mice that were fed gingerol lived
longer, their tumors were smaller, and the cancer did not spread as widely
as in the control group.
 
With all these health benefits, you should be using ginger as often as you
can. The best way I've found to get a healthy serving of ginger is to juice
it. Two or three days a week, I juice an apple or two, some carrots,
spinach, broccoli, cabbage, and a big piece of ginger root. The ginger
gives the drink a great flavor and a powerful anti-cancer kick. I highly
recommend that you try it.
