Blueberries could replace traditional drugs in treatment of oral cancer

 

Super fruits like blueberries, blackberries and papaya could be used to

stop mouth cancer cells spreading through the rest of the body - as well

as reducing mouth cancer risk - according to a study published in the

Journal of Cancer Research.

 

The study, conducted at the University of Hong Kong, found that as well

as suppressing the spread of cancer, lupeol also reduced the size of the

tumour three times faster than the conventional cisplatin drug. When the

two were used together they were even more successful.

The compound works by blocking a natural protein called NFkB which helps

to grow and repair all cells - even cancerous ones.
