Ginger causes Leukemia Cell Suicide

What we know about Ginger:

Helps with Nausea and upset stomachsRecently, we found that it fights several

specials of drug-resistant bacteria

2013 Chinese Study

6-Shogaol: a compound in ginger6-Shogaol was injected into the treatment

group of mice.The other group received an equal volume of

solvent controlTumor volume was measuredUnfortunately the mice did die after 20 days

BUT…

The Findings

Examination of the tumors of the mice that received the 6-shogaol treatment revealed cancer apoptosis.

Cancer apoptosis: cell suicideSomehow the 6-shogaol caused cell suicide of

ONLY the harmful cells with no harm to healthy cells and no side effects

This is groundbreaking

Currently

The goal is to create a drug that can be administered to treat leukemia

The FDA is scrutinizing spices to be used medicinally- this is not helpful.

You can find organic bulk ginger inexpensively

What to watch out for?

If you have an allergy to ginger, obviously stay away

If you are taking medications for diabetes or your heart, any blood thinning medication or over the counter painkillers, be weary with consuming too much ginger

Otherwise? You should be good!

Thank you
