Salvestrol Targets Cancer Cells

berries phytonutrients

Plants possess substances within them that help them fight off life-endangering “predators.” In the plant world, these can include insects, droughts and especially fungal overgrowth. One plant protective substances is a phytonutrient called Salvestrol. When a plant is overrun by a fungus on its surface or at the root, Salvestrol will “come to life” and enter the pathogen, destroying it. In humans, Salvestrol has developed a unique relationship to specific pathogens. Although the process of destruction is basically the same, recent research suggests that in humans Salvestrol specifically targets cancer cells.

Salvestrol is another Natural Extract that often comes up as a positive in the Greece Test. This means that the cancer killing effects of Salvestrol can be documented and measured on your specific cancer cells.

How Salvestrol Destroys Cancer Cells

Salvestrol belongs to a class of phytonutrient called phytoalexins. Phytoalexins are antimicrobial and antioxidant substances that are like members of a vast army. Their mission is to be on the lookout for pathogens that may harm an organism.  When Salvestrol encounters cancer in the body, it makes itself available to be metabolized by a specific enzyme within tumor cells called CYP1B1, which has become recognized as an important cancer marker.

Once Salvestrol enters the cell and is metabolized by CYP1B1, it has basically done its job. The metabolism process itself releases toxins that lead to apoptosis, or cancer cell death. Salvestrol and the metabolic process it ignites effects tumor cells only while leaving healthy cells untouched. The result is overall tumor decline and a significant slow-down of metastasis.

Salvestrol in supplement form has been shown to effect tumor growth in prostate, lung and bladder cancer as well as melanoma and breast cancer.

Salvestrol as a Supplement 

There was a time when our fruits and vegetables provided enough foods rich in Salvestrol and other pathogen-fighting phytoalexins to ward off cancer. The mass introduction of processed foods as well as soil-depleting agricultural methods over the last several decades have significantly reduced the presence of Salvestrol in food.

In fact, the decline in nutrients within the food supply is a major contributor to the rise in cancer rates worldwide.

Switching to an all-organic diet, upping your fruit and vegetable consumption and eliminating cancer-causing chemicals can certainly increase both the quantity of these phytonutrients within you and their effectiveness for cancer prevention. Going organic will also give you a boost of certain nutritional co-factors that work in synergy with phytonutrients like Salvestrol as well as  vitamin C, Niacin, magnesium and iron. Getting the right amount of exercise will help give the CYP1B1 enzyme the oxygen input it needs to do its job.

Unfortunately, all of this is still not enough. Given the vast changes in nutrient content for our food worldwide plus salvestrol phytonutrientsthe added toxic load that causes our immune systems to go into overtime, a person would have to consume an enormous amount of healthy organic produce to make a real difference when it comes to serious cancer prevention through phytonutrients. Thus, the wise choice is to also get them through supplementation.

The researchers who originally discovered that Salvestrol could kill cancer cells were originally developing pharmaceutical drugs that had the same effect. Upon investigation, UK Professor of Medical Chemistry Gerry Potter and UK Professor Emeritus of Pharmaceutical Metabolism Dan Burke discovered that those foods that should have been rich in substances such as Salvestrol were in fact very low in these substances. They eventually determined that “modern food selection and production methods were removing them from the diet.”

Experts estimate that we consume about a tenth of the Salvestrol quantities in our diet today that we would have consumed 100 years ago.

If you are interested in adding Salvestrol to your healthy breast protocol, the best value is called Salvestrol Platinum 1000. It uses 100% natural, non-GMO, pesticide-free extracts of blackberry, blueberry, strawberry, and tangerine.  Nature provides the most powerful and safest cancer protection there is through phytoalexins such as Salvestrol. Salvestrol supplementation puts back into place a co-evolutionary relationship between plant compounds and the human body that has been almost taken away by modern commercial food production.
