very interesting and hope it leads to a breakthrough
in healing cancer. BTW, coconut oil is very anti
fungal. Colloidal silver i believe is also anti
fungal and so with moringa oleifera.

==========================================
Scientists look to natural compounds in fruits and
vegetables to win the war against cancer
Natural anti-fungal compounds found on common fruits
and vegetables could unlock the belly of a Trojan
horse lying latent inside cancer cells. Laboratory
tests have shown that the compounds, called
salvestrols, unleash a potent army of snipers that
pick off cancer cells without harming normal cells.
A small team of pharmacologists and bio-chemists in
England discovered the compounds almost four years
ago, and say they are an example of the potential
power of orthomolecular, or nutrition-based, medicine
even though it has only been tested in the lab.
About 250 orthomolecular practitioners from 14
countries will gather in Vancouver this weekend for
the 37th annual international conference on the
biochemical approach to health.
Orthomolecular medicine, meaning the right molecule,
argues that diseases are caused by chemical imbalances
in the body and that they can be corrected using
vitamins, minerals and amino acids.
The approach is still disputed by many in conventional
medicine, including the respected Cochrane Library,
which recently reviewed the literature on antioxidants
and found no evidence to support their use for
prevention.
But nutrition therapy has gained some credence lately
because of a growing body of evidence demonstrating
the value of food and food derivatives such as
omega-3s and Vitamin D to prevent and heal disease.
In the case of the anti-fungal compounds, its
proponents are convinced their presence or absence in
diet could help explain why some people get cancer and
some don't. They also believe it is a potent cancer
fighting therapy.
The as yet unproven therapy was discovered after Dan
Burke, a former University of Aberdeen toxicologist
and pharmaceutical metabolism professor who found an
enzyme called CYP1B1 (pronounced sip one bee one) that
is present in all cancer cells but absent in all
non-cancerous cells.
A mainstream cancer researcher for 30 years, Burke
knew he'd stumbled onto something big.
The problem with cancer is that unlike many diseases,
it has no alien source -- no infection or bacteria
towards which treatment can be directed.
Cancer cells are normal cells that don't die. They
just multiply forever. So current treatments, such as
chemotherapy and radiation, can't target just the
cancerous cells.
They can only carpet bomb the cancerous area,
destroying normal cells in the process and causing
immune deficiency, hair loss and other unpleasant side
effects.
In his enzyme, Burke had a target that drugs could
attack. He and colleague Gerry Potter, a professor of
medicinal chemistry with a long history of developing
anti-cancer drugs, began preliminary research into
creating a pro-drug, a drug that can enter all cells
but is harmless until it encounters the CYP1B1 enzyme.
"CYP1B1 is a Trojan horse," Burke said in a recent
Vancouver interview. "It is intrinsic in cancer cells.
All you have to do is give it [a pro-drug] and it will
unleash the armies to kill the cancers cells."
