Studies: Ginger vs Cancer

Here are a few studies that show the potency of ginger in fighting cancer.

Study #1

According to this study, ginger can prevent different types of cancer including prostrate, brain, liver, oral, gastric, ovarian, colon, breast, skin, renal, and pancreatic cancer.

These benefits were mainly attributed to three bioactive compounds – gingerol, paradol, and shogaol. These bioactive compounds have antimutagenic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties.

Study #2

In this study, researchers concluded that the bioactive compounds in ginger can treat ovarian cancer. They found that the ginger root extract had the ability to prevent growth of ovarian cancer cells and kill them.

There is good news – researchers say that cancer cells aren’t resistant to ginger treatment as they are to chemotherapy. And another advantage is that ginger doesn’t have side effects like chemo.

Study #3

Gingerol, shogaol, and conjugate metabolites can lower risk of colon, prostate and breast cancer, according to this study.

In fact, the study found that there are lower cases of cancer in regions where cancer is commonly used to cook.

Study #4

Researchers found that ginger can lower risk of prostate cancer and other types of cancer. You can kill tumors by consuming 567 mg of ginger extract or 100g of fresh ginger every day.

Now, don’t wait until you’re sick to use ginger, start using it today to lower risk of cancer and fight many other diseases.
