Ginger, green tea, Scutellaria barbata can prevent cancer

The researchers tested the extract on mice infected with human colon cancer cells, and found that 15 treated mice had significantly inhibited cancer cells 15 days after the cancer cells were implanted Only 4 mice had tumors in their bodies, while 13 of the untreated mice had tumors Researchers will study other types of cancer cells in the hope of finding evidence to prevent and treat other cancers Another group of researchers found that Scutellaria barbata can reduce the spread rate of prostate cancer cells in mice Some researchers have also found that Chinese green tea can effectively reduce the risk of lung cancer among smokers The center asked a group of smokers to drink at least four cups of green tea or black tea a day, and then tested their body for a chemical called 8-OHdG, which is produced after smoking and can damage human DNA, leading to cancer It was found that the content of 8-OHdG in smokers after drinking green tea decreased by 31% compared with that when they did not drink tea Meanwhile, the content of 8-OHdG in black tea drinkers also decreased to some extent, but it was not as significant as that in green tea drinkers.
