Resveratrol as a Cure for Cancer

Many researches was conducted to revealed the real effect of Resveratrol many are mentioned and many are still in the process of development. On the recent research it shows that grape skin and blueberries are the best source of antioxidant. This antioxidant is good for the health for it weakens pancreatic cancer cells, and during chemo it becomes susceptible. It decreases the sensitivity of normal cells. On the study the researchers treated cancer cells with a 50 mg of resveratrol; in order to mimic the chemo the resveratrol was iodized.

Another control group was also iodized without resveratrol. Knowing that pancreatic cancer is particularly chemo-resistant, for it secretes enzymes that wash away the chemo drugs before they can work. In cells where resveratrol treatment is applied, the enzymes that do the “washing” were inhibited. It is unexplainable activity but it may be a new side effect of resveratrol. All antioxidants remove free radicals from the body.
