Bitter Fruit DESTROYS Cancer
Earlier in the week, I told you about a sweet fruit called guava that can help lower blood pressure, blood sugar, and even has anti-cancer properties.
Today, I’m going to tell you about a not-so-sweet fruit that has some very BIG health benefits.
But don’t let its bitter taste sour your opinion of this exotic fruit.
Because it can help stop the spread of breast, prostate, neck cancer cells, and more.
Here’s everything you need to know.
It’s called bitter melon and for a good reason. Its sour taste sets it apart from other members of its family (like cucumber and zucchini).
But its health benefits are pretty sweet.
Bitter melon has been used as a traditional medicine in India for centuries, and more recently shows it’s particularly effective at treating diabetes.
Now, recent studies show the most exciting benefits of bitter melon yet:
It can stop cancer in its tracks.
Laboratory tests found that bitter melon extract can stop breast, prostate, head, and neck cancer cells from replicating, which is a major step in preventing cancer from spreading.
And animal studies show that bitter melon extract can reduce the incidence of lung cancer.
Bitter melon appears to work by cutting off cancer’s food supply. And by starving the cancer cells, it caused them to stop growing—and in some cases killed the cancer cells outright.
These studies consistently show that bitter melon extracts lead to a 50 percent reduction in tumor growth.
If you’re like me, you don’t like the idea of eating large amounts of anything you don’t love—especially if it leaves a sour taste in your mouth.
Fortunately, bitter melon extracts are available in supplement form at your local natural health store.
