Cancer. Reality or Make Believe. Do some herbal medicines really kill Cancer Cells? What are the Facts?

By Grahaam Maartin

Are alternative medicines and herbal products as good as they say and do they really work? It's a big topic But the results seem to say an emphatic yes! Are you frightened by the possibility of getting cancer? Does the word "cancer" upset you? Cancer, Its a powerful word isn't it? A powerful source of 'natural' help is available to you now, it goes by the name Graviola!

Many medical practitioners and doctors although not all of them, scorn the use of herbal remedies and alternative therapies, labelling them as 'fringe' or 'quack' medicines, often because when they were at medical school the were not taught about them as they were not on the curriculum. Even though some of these alleged crackpot ideas showed a tremendous potential

Many of these alternative methods and herbal products have such a long history of use, that many professional studies and in-depth research has been carried out on them. One of those in particular "Annona Muricata", better known as Graviola is showing tremendously promising results.

Way back in 2001 The HSI organisation (Health Sciences Institute) featured an article with the headline "Billion-dollar Drug Company nearly squashes astounding research on natural cancer killer". It goes on to say. "Colon and breast cancer conquered with miracle tree from the Amazon found to be 10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy". Can you believe that! 10.000 times stronger and yet some greedy pharmaceutical company tried to squash it because they couldn't patent a plant! Disgusting! But enough about that. That tree was Graviola! OK, what exactly is Graviola?

Graviola is an indigenous to South America and some parts of the Amazon Rainforests It's not exactly big either growing only 5 to 6 metres high. But in regards to having cancer attacking properties, it's massive! Anyone interested in beating cancer should know more about this life saver.

Lots of research has already been completed. It's been found that a lot of the phytochemicals or annonaceous acetogenins (the chemical compounds that occur naturally in plants) found in the stem, leaves, and seeds of the Graviola tree are cytotoxic against many cancer cells and tumours. These plant parts are all used in herbal medicine.

Excellent news because, quote:- (Cytotoxic: Toxic to cells, cell-toxic, cell-killing. Any agent or process that kills cells. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are forms of cytotoxic therapy.) The HSI says in this article that the tree has undergone more than 20 laboratory studies and tests since the'70s, where it's been shown to: Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 different types of cancer, including lung, Prostate, colon, breast, and pancreatic cancer Be 10,000 times stronger in killing colon cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug. Without harming healthy cells, it can selectively hunt down and kill cancer cells, unlike chemotherapy.

Back in'76 a plant screening program by the National Cancer Institute also showed that Graviola displayed active cytotoxicity against cancer cells and various researchers have been following up on this research ever since and have found that Graviola was a cancer killing powerhouse. These Herbal products have been in use worldwide almost since the time when man first walked on the earth. If you or your loved ones suffer from this terrible ailment, then I would strongly recommend that you read the HSI article in full here. It's staggering!

So, could Graviola help you in the fight against cancer? It appears that the answer is a resounding yes!
