Grape seed extract destroys cancer cells – Study
A new study reveals Grape seed extract can destroy cancer cells which kill half a million people every year world wide. The extract of grape seed creates conditions unfavourable for the cancers ‘growth by damaging both their cells’ DNA and stops the pathways that allow repair. “It’s a rather dramatic effect,” said Rajesh Agarwal, study investigator at the University of Colorado Cancer Centre and professor at the Skaggs School of Pharmaceutical Sciences. “Cancer cells are fast-growing cells. Not only that, but they are necessarily fast growing. When conditions exist in which they can’t grow, they die,” said Agarwal, according to a university statement. “I think the whole point is that cancer cells have a lot of defective pathways and they are very vulnerable if you target those pathways. The same is not true of healthy cells,” he added.
