Hibiscus sabdariffa Leaf Extract Inhibits Human Prostate Cancer Cell Invasion via Down-Regulation of Akt/NF-κB/MMP-9 Pathway”

Recently purchased Pure Leaf’s Mango & Hibisbcus Herbal Tea. I checked out hibiscus-related research and was surprised at the extent of the research on hibiscus tea and the various findings. Thought some of you might enjoy this very tasty concoction. I took some green tea capsules with it in light of some findings. Years ago an IP6 study found green tea enhanced (synergistic relationship identified) IP6 impact on cancer. See Dr. Shamsuddin’s text for a summary of this study.

Yes I have come across some articles about hibiscus tea and also Marigold flower petals. There is an evolving field called "floral therapy" Flower petals are used to help fight diseases. Yellow flower petals have carotenoid like pigments, Red Rose petals have Anthocyanin like pigments. Some thing to study more about this area.

Saffron is well known example. It has caroteinoids, an anti cancer substance called Crocin and many other pigments which are antioxidants and anti inflammatory.

I'm with you. been shown to be very beneficial..I'm more into integrative approaches to PCA are you as well?

[CalBear74 in reply to 4Rosebud]

Yes, 4Rosebud I have to recommend a book by an integrative oncologist: Keith Block, MD "Life Over Cancer". Also, "IP6 and Inositol" by AKM Shamsuddin, MD. Both available from Amazon.

EFFICACY OF COW URINE THERAPY ON VARIOUS CANCER PATIENTS IN MANDSAUR DISTRICT, INDIA - A SURVEY

N. K. Jain, V. B. Gupta, Rajesh Garg, N. Silawat

ABSTRACT

Evaluation of cow urine therapy on cancer patients in 8 days camp at Mandsaur district was carried out. The object of this survey was to evaluate efficacy of cow urine therapy on various cancer patients who were reported across from different state of India. Total 68 cancer patients reported during the survey from 8 April 2007 to 15 April 2007. A questionnaire was developed to assess the efficacy of cow urine therapy. During survey, out of 68 patients, 7.35% patients withdraw themselves from the treatment and 63 (92.64%) patients continued the therapy. There was a high proportion (30.87%) of throat cancer and the other prevalent cancer was breast cancer (14.70%) followed by cervix and uterine cancer (5.88%), buccal cavity cancer and sinus (4.41%) lung cancer, lymphoma and bone cancer (2.94%), both throat and buccal (5.88%) and other cancer (8.82%), respectively. The symptoms (pain, inflammation, burning sensation, difficulty in swallowing, irritation, etc.) of cancer patients were categorized into severe, moderate

and mild categories, respectively. Intensive study of the data of cancer patients revealed that the degree of severe, moderate and mild symptoms were 82.16%, 15.8% and 1.58% on the first day and 7.9%, 55.3% and 36.34% on the eighth day, respectively. It was evaluated that patients who were receiving cow urine therapy since 2-3 months were most benefited. Hence, this traditional therapy

may really a boon to cancer patients.

Key words: Cancer, cow urine, panchgavya

Trivia: Louis Comfort Tiffany used cow's urine to get the unique colors of his glass......

p.s. I wonder if the "Comfort" stood for a room where you (cows) piss?
