Subject: A compound found in goldenseal proven to possess cancer-fightingproperties
Berberine is a yellow compound found in goldenseal that has traditionally been used as both a dye and a medicine. Recently, a group of Japanese researchers found that berberine may induce cell death in cancer cells — especially leukemia cells — and prevent their proliferation. Berberine may also be quite effective in moderating blood sugar and promoting the growth of good bacteria in the digestive tract. It may also help in losing weight and moderating cholesterol levels.
Key Takeaways:
- As researchers continue to search for treatment for cancer, some researchers in Japan have found that a natural compound, berberine, can be effective in treating cancer.
- To study the effectiveness of berberine against cancer, the researchers treated human promyelocytic leukemia cells with berberine and then examined the effect of the compound.
- The findings of the study was published in the journal The American Journal of Chinese Medicine and it discovered that berberine was effective against leukemia.
"The research team found that after five to 15 minutes of treatment, berberine exhibited powerful antiproliferative activity in the cells."
