Chilies Spicy Could Help Kill Cancer Cells!



The compound capsaicin, which gives the chilly its burning sensation when tasted in the mouth, could one day be turned into a therapeutic cancer remedy,  a new study showed.
Back in 2006, scientist found evidence that high doses of capsaicin could kill prostate cancer cells in mice while leaving healthy cells unharmed, but cancer-affected humans would have to eat vast amounts of 

peppers each week to get the dose needed. 

A much better option would be to turn the precious compound into a concentrated drug, but, so far no one has understood exactly how it brings about cancer cell death The process is scientifically termed apoptosis or cell death necessary to make way for new cells and to remove cells whose DNA has been damaged to the point at which cancerous change is liable to occur.

Now scientists in India have shown for the first time how capsaicin binds to a cancer cell and triggers changes within it. This of course is the first step towards harnessing the compound’s effect in medication.

The researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras were able to detect how the compound interacts with cell membranes by monitoring its natural fluorescence. They found that the capsaicin binds to the surface of a cancer cell, and then lodges itself into the cell’s membrane.

The presence of the compound then begins to trigger chemical changes in the membrane, and if you add enough of it, it actually causes the membranes to come apart.
The research team still does not quite understand the molecular pathway causing this reaction, but further research could help to unlock ways to thoroughly harness this healing effect in future cancer treatments.

At this point, we are probably a very long way away from being able to use capsaicin therapeutically, but the best part about the compound is that it does not seem to affect healthy cells, and many humans already safely tolerate it. 

The next step will be to figure out what exactly is going on inside the cell membrane, and also how this process happens inside the human body. Afterwards, the next challenge will be to figure out the best way to trigger this effect again.

The original research, conducted back in 2006, also did not clearly show that capsaicin could stop prostate cancer. Rather, it slowed the tumor growth of by about 80%, which is good, but it also suggests that the compound will need to be combined with another type of cancer-fighting molecule if it is used as a drug.

So, it is really early to stock up habañera peppers just as yet. For sure, they will set your mouth on fire while the other effects may not be felt.
However, this is promising lead on a new compound that could help fight cancer, which is something we very much need all over the world.

Health Benefits Of The Superb Ginger

The regular consumption of ginger boosts the immune system in winter, and in case of chronic exhaustion and fatigue.

Ginger is recommended as a preventive tool against colds, inflammation of the airways and the digestive system, and its anti- inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects are due to gingerols, the active substances in the root.
Apart from preventing the symptoms of cold, it encourages circulation and warms the body, stimulates sweat and enhances the secretion of toxins. These are some of the reasons why ginger is often used for detoxification of the body.

You can obtain best effects if you use fresh ginger, but it can also be consumed as a tea, in compote, or in freshly squeezed juices.

Ginger is also useful in eliminating problems with the digestive system, so it should be added to meals. A drop of its essential oil in a glass of water will prevent cramps or bloating of the stomach after meals.
Moreover, ginger is one of the main ingredients in the preparation of Tibetan Tea, which is a remarkable kind of tea for longevity.

Drink Tibetan tea in sips throughout the day, or even better, a cup before each meal, in order to obtain good health and longevity.

Ingredients:

5g grated ginger
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey
1 pinch of ground hot pepper
1 pinch of anise
2 liters water

Method of preparation:

Boil the water for 5 minutes, then, cool it down. Add the ginger, lemon juice, honey, pepper and anise. Drink it in little sips throughout the day, or even better, consume a cup before each meal.
This amount is enough for three people.

Worker bees eating ordinary honey live only four to six weeks. Royal Jelly can help support the immune system, increase energy, and benefit the skin and hair, Forever Royal Jelly is extracted from the hive and immediately freeze-dried to remove only the excess water from the product, leaving the other elements intact.

Other benefits attributed to royal jelly are that it aids in cell regeneration, improves skin texture and clarity and increases the body’s resistance. It has also been shown to help reduce cholesterol. Royal jelly is high in protein, and is synthesised during the digestion of pollen. Royal jelly also contains acetycholine which plays a varied and important role in the function of the entire body, provoking adrenaline secretion.

Royal Jelly for fertility - scientific evidence has been found to back up this long suspected fact. Royal jelly is rich in amino acids, proteins, lipids, vitamins D and E, iron, and calcium which are all vital in ensuring your reproductive organs function at their best.

Ebola Virus

Ebola is a rare but deadly infection that causes bleeding inside and outside the body. The disease, also known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever or Ebola virus disease, kills up to 90% of people who are infected. Ebola can spread from country to country when people travel.

Quarantine officers at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport terminals are closely monitoring to all passengers for fever to prevent the Ebola virus from spreading to the Philippines. One of the doctors on duty at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal one said they questioned travelers with fever on the places they visited during the past ten days, based on instructions from the Department of Health and the world organization.

They are advised to strict in monitoring passengers from all airlines that arrive at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Ebola virus has killed 72 persons in Eastern Guinea and that is neighbor, Senega has closed its borden to those coming from the outbreak stricken country.
