In 24 hours 76% Leukemia Cancer Cells killed by Grapeseed Extract

Published by Clinical Cancer Research from new updated study conducted at the University of Kentucky, US, found that there is cell suicide process known as Apoptosis at Leukemian Cancer Cell exposed to grapeseed extract (GSE).

In these laboratory studies, an astonishing 76% of leukemia cells committed suicide within 24 hours thanks to the ability of GSE to activate a protein called JNK, which regulates apoptosis.

In a healthy person, cancer cell apoptosis is a normal, healthy part of biology.
Every living system creates cancerous cells.
There are hundreds or thousands of “microtumors” in every human being living today, but cancerous cells in healthy people destroy themselves once they realize they’re flawed.
This cellular “realization,” however, requires healthy cell communication, and that’s dependent on the correct nutrients, minerals and proteins being available in the body.

Grapeseed extract appears to accelerate this process in cancer cells, helping them more rapidly assess their own flawed state so they can engage in apoptosis (cell suicide), thus protecting the larger organism (the body).

It’s important to note that this recent study was conducted in a lab, not in human beings, so its conclusions cannot necessarily be directly translated into saying something like “grapeseed extract cures cancer,” for example.
However, it does indicate quite convincingly that if the unique phytochemical molecules found in grapeseed extract can be delivered to leukemia cells with sufficient potency, they may play an important role in cancer cells destroying themselves, thereby protecting the whole organism from runaway cancer.

If the results demonstrated in the labs at the University of Kentucky can be replicated in humans, it could potentially position grapeseed extract as one of the most powerful natural chemotherapeutic agents yet discovered.

Grapeseed extract has been studied and demonstrated to be remarkably effective at killing cancer cells for many different types of cancer, by the way, including cancers of the breast, prostate, lung, skin bowel and stomach.

Protecting healthy cells
Another important finding in the University of Kentucky study is that the grapeseed extract was not toxic to normal, healthy cells even as it helped cancer cells commit suicide.

This is hugely important because it shows, yet again, that Mother Nature’s medicine is far safer than medicine created by Man.
Conventional chemotherapy chemicals are extremely toxic to healthy cells, which is why chemotherapy causes permanent brain damage (”chemo brain”), kidney damage and heart damage.
Grapeseed extract, however, causes no such damage, and there has never been a person who died from eating grapes. (There have been millions, probably, who were killed by chemotherapy.)

As Professor Xianglin Shi, the lead researcher of the study, said in a BBC article: “These results could have implications for the incorporation of agents such as grapeseed extract into prevention or treatment of haematological (blood) malignancies and possibly other cancers. …What everyone seeks is an agent that has an effect on cancer cells but leaves normal cells alone, and this shows that grapeseed extract fits into this category.”

In other words, grapeseed extract is now a candidate for a natural chemotherapeutic agent.

Grapeseed extract and endurance
The benefits of grapeseed extract don’t stop with its anti-cancer potential, by the way: The antioxidant is also known to be extremely effective at reducing oxidative stress during exercise.

Grapeseed extract is also available as a nutritional supplement from numerous sources, but one thing you’ll notice about GSE in supplement form is that the actual nutrient is so tiny that most of the GSE supplements contain a lot of filler (silica, stearic acid, silicon dioxide, etc.).

The best way to get grapeseed extract is by eating grape seeds.
The second best way is to get it mixed in with a superfood powder or supplement that contains no filler.
The least preferred way to get it is by taking a GSE capsule made with a lot of filler, so keep that in mind.
