April 12, 2010
 Bitter
melon breast cancer cure? - This is a commonly used vegetable in
China, South America and India. The extract of bitter melon is often used for its reported health benefits of treating diabetes, liver disease and colitis
and to support patients suffering from HIV/AIDS.
When breast cancer cells were exposed to extract of bitter melon,
scientists were shocked to find that it was able to slow down the growth and
to kill off the cancerous cells.
This suprising finding will spark further research in animals and then
eventually in human trials. This is very good news for those suffering from
breast cancer.
It is too early to say if including a lot of bitter melon in your diet
or taking bitter melon supplements would show the same results as in
the lab studies. But it doesn't hurt to include a wide variety of
vegetables, including bitter melon, in your regular diet.
