Antioxidants accelerate the growth of cancer cells independent of natural foods

, rather than protecting them from cancer as the theory does., a biologist at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden,
.
lindal, a researcher on

antioxidants and cancer cell activity , told reporters that

antioxidants allow cancer cells to escape the cell's own anti-tumor defense system and allow existing cancer cells to spread and metastasize uncontrolled. At the same time, cancer cells that are too small to be detected have the same problem.
”Martin S. Smith of the University of Gothenburg, Sweden,
.
, who was also involved in the study, stressed that the results suggest that taking too much antioxidants could harm the body and accelerate tumor growth. He added,
"
if I had lung cancer, I would never recommend antioxidants."
”The findings do not apply to natural foods such as fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidantsthe results apply only to supplements the researchers stressed that the results were not related to natural foods rich in antioxidants

e.g. fruits and vegetables

.The study, published in the journal

Translational Medicine
, the same journal as Science, has yet to find out whether antioxidants cause lung cancer, not just accelerate the growth of existing cancer cells, and has not covered natural foods that contain large amounts of antioxidants.this study, like existing and growing experiments, challenges the notion that vitamin supplements are still good for healthand that vitamin supplements are still good for health

.the latest study, scientists gave mice with early stage lung cancer vitamin
E
and another antioxidant that was not yet available. It should be noted that vitamin
E
is given at the same dose as the normal supplementation of existing vitamin supplements, while the dose of another antioxidant is relatively low.The Tumor Increasestudy showed that mice that took antioxidants had
2.8
times more cancer cells than mice that did not take antioxidants, and that cancer cells became more active, aggressive, and died more quickly. , antioxidants also accelerate the growth of laboratory-grown cancer cells. important achievement of this study was to identify ways to study the above-mentioned issues. In fact, perhaps antioxidants do reduce damage, but to a lesser extent than expected. At the same
