New reesearch from m The Univ versity of Teexas at Austtin identifiees several naatural comp pounds
found inn food, incluuding turmeeric, apple ppeels and reed grapes, ass key ingreddients that could
c
thwart tthe growth of
o prostate cancer,
c the mmost comm mon cancer afflicting
a U..S. men and d a key
area of focus during Mens Health Month, which public health advocates celebrate in June,
reports the University of Texas in Austin. Published online this week in Precision Oncology,
the new paper uses a novel analytical approach to screen numerous plant-based chemicals
instead of testing a single agent as many studies do, discovering specific combinations that
shrink prostate cancer tumors.
The new research paper also demonstrates how the plant-based chemicals work together.
Combining ursolic acid with either curcumin or resveratrol prevents cancer cells from
gobbling something that they need to grow, glutamine. This is a neat solution: blocking the
uptake of a nutrient needed by prostate cancer cells with nutrients that are commonly in the
human diet.
