graviola powder, rasberry, strawberry, red grape, etc are good enough daily for prevention?

Answer 1

You should read up as much about it as you can. The website below says that it should probably be used in conjunction with other treatments.

http://www.cancertutor.com/Cancer/EllagicAcid.html

"Unpublished research at the Hollings Cancer Center shows that one cup of raspberries per week will stop prostate cancer growth for a period of up to one week. Their studies reveal that ellagic acid from red raspberries is readily absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract. This study is ongoing, but you can read more at the Life Enthusiast web site."

and

It should be noted that the Life Enthusiast site states 'one cup of raspberries DAILY' not weekly! It seems to be the puree that is used. No mention is made of how effective raspberry juice might be.

All the studies seem to be in quite early stages and recommended dosages or methods of delivery (oral or otherwise) have not been established.

It is almost certainly not a cure for cancer but the studies suggest that it inhibits cancerous cells, so it can be considered a preventative treatment for certain types of cancer.

Answer 2

Anti-oxidants are good and effective but remember they are secondary to sound diet. You cannot protect (cell) what you cannot build.

I'd Eliminate inflammatory acidic foods like bread, pasta, white rice, and potatoes. Reduce refined sugar and high fat processed animal protein. The have a high glycemic index and poor nutrition /protein. Go off all dairy products - . I'd eat more fruits, veges, seeds and nuts - especially organic hemp seeds. Ask me for my granola & hemp milk recipes. Oh -eat less processed animal protein.
