Sex gives clues to new lung cancer treatment

Research into an enzyme that produces a hormone released after sex has inspired Australian National University chemists to create new treatments for small-cell lung cancer. Led by Professor Chris Easton and PhD student Ms. Lucy Cao from the ARC Centre of Excellence for Free Radical Chemistry and Biotechnology at ANU, the team are working to reduce the number of small-cell lung cancer deaths by building new drugs that target the biology...

Blood test to spot cancer gets big boost

A blood test so sensitive that it can spot a single cancer cell lurking among a billion healthy ones is moving one step closer to being available at your doctor’s office. Boston scientists who invented the test and health care giant Johnson & Johnson will announce Monday that they are joining forces to bring it to market. Four big cancer centers also will start studies using the experimental test this year. Stray cancer cells in the...

Enzyme could be a key to stopping the cancer

We are able to show that caloric restriction slows down aging by preventing an enzyme, peroxiredoxin, from being inactivated. This enzyme is also extremely important in counteracting damage to our genetic material," says Mikael Molin of the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology. By gradually reducing the intake of sugar and proteins, without reducing vitamins and minerals, researchers have previously shown that monkeys can live several...

What is the difference between Tray Grown and Field Grown Wheat Grass?

Nutritionally speaking there is actually a quite a difference. First of all, any wheat grass is good for you. However, The tray-grown wheatgrass is usually grown in a warm greenhouse or indoors under fluorescent lightning. The grass will be harvested and juiced for consumption after 7-10 days of accelerated growth cycle. Because it grows so quickly in the warm conditions, the plant does not reach its full vegetative development for a maximum...

Anti-Aging enzyme's secret revealed

Johns Hopkins researchers have determined how a tiny molecule normally squelches the activity of an enzyme that otherwise could help yeast, worms and flies live longer.The structural secrets they found, which are described in the March 18 issue of Molecular Cell, are likely to help efforts to design molecules that increase or decrease the enzyme's normal activity.  The idea isn't to create a fountain of youth, say the researchers,...

Research: Enzyme repair damaged tissues and reversed the signs of ageing

In mice, reactivating the enzyme telomerase led to the repair of damaged tissues and reversed the signs of ageing. Photograph: Robert F. Bukaty/AP Scientists claim to be a step closer to reversing the ageing process after rejuvenating worn out organs in elderly mice. The experimental treatment developed by researchers at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, turned weak and feeble old mice into healthy animals by regenerating...

Wheatgrass and Overcoming Cancer - Dr. Ann Wigmore

For many years I have taken a great interest in the problem of cancer. My reasoning has been that if wheatgrass and live foods can help the most feared and uncontrollable medical problem, cancer, no questions should remain about its ability to heal, nourish, and balance the body. With twenty years of teaching cancer patients behind me, I know that—contrary to popular belief—all types of cancer can be overcome. However, my own opinion is that we...

Anti-aging: Support for the youngest older generation ever!

Wheatgrass juice is the nectar of rejuvenation, the plasma of youth, the blood of all life. The elements that are missing in our body's cells,especially enzymes, vitamins, hormones, and nucleic acids can be obtained through this daily green sunlight transfusion."     -- Rev. Viktoras Kulvinskas, Author of Survival into the Twenty First Cent...

Do you know how important the alkaline/acid balance is for our bones?

A recent seven-year study conducted at the University of California, San Francisco, on 9,000 women showed that those who have chronic acidosis are at greater risk for bone loss than those who have normal pH levels. The scientists who carried out this experiment believe that many of the hip fractures prevalent among middle-aged women are connected to high acidity caused by a diet rich in animal foods and low in vegetables. This is because...

Cancer: The Dreaded C Word

Cancer: The Dreaded C Word The effects of live foods (wheatgrass, and synthetic Vitamin C) on cancer in laboratory mice were studied at the Linus Pauling Institute of Science and Medicine by Dr. Arthur Robinson. The scientists induced skin cancer through exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Their findings were reported in an article that appeared in March, 1984, titled Living Foods and Cancer, The results were spectacular. Living foods [including...

Wheatgrass is great for Mouth and Gum Health

The effectiveness of wheat grass juice in oral health has long been validated. However, the dental community was shocked when a dentist by the name of Homer Judkin, D.D.S., of the Paris Hospital in Paris, Illinois reported his findings after injecting chlorophyll in the gums of patients. The experience proved that chlorophyll eliminated the infection of trench mouth as well as advanced cases of gum disorders such as pyorrhea. Dr. Judkin...

Wheatgrass Treatment for Migraines

Wheatgrass Treatment for Migraines: Migraines are severe, recurrent headaches that can cause debilitating pain for hours on end. While there is no cure for a migraine, home remedies and life-style changes can go a long way to reduce symptoms. A highly digestible, concentrated source of nutrients, wheatgrass is a commonly used supplement for natural healing for all kinds of illness, including migraines. Wheatgrass contains chemicals shown to have...
