Broccoli contains a substance that can fight cancer and prevent experts say at least.
And laboratory mice
Scientists tested the effects of sulforaphane, a compound in broccoli, in experiments with mice and cell cultures. They injected various concentrations of the component from broccoli in mice with breast cancer. This shows that the stem cells of cancer decreased after treatment with this substance, this had little effect on normal cells. Unlike chemotherapy, which causes the patient after treatment often feel ill. (more…)
Although such research non-core part, we are pleased to deliver a contribution.
