Wormwood an amazing Anti-Cancer treatment.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has yielded a promising new approach for treating cancer. Seattle scientists have shown that a compound extracted from the wormwood plant seeks out and destroys breast cancer cells, while leaving healthy cells unscathed.
Potentially, a safe, non-toxic, and inexpensive alternative for cancer patients,
Artemisia is a close cousin to oxygen therapy. Chinese researchers said the key to its effects was a peroxide linkage (two oxygen atoms hooked together) within the herb’s active molecule.
In laboratory experiments, the compound killed virtually all human breast cancer cells exposed to it in the test tube within 16 hours, reports Dr. Henry Lai, a bioengineering researcher at the University of Washington. Just as importantly, he says, nearly all of the normal cells exposed to it were still alive.
A dog with a type of bone cancer known as osteosarcoma so severe that it couldn’t walk across the room made a complete recovery within five days of receiving the treatment. X-rays showed the animal’s tumor had basically disappeared says Lai, adding that he believes the dog is still alive two years later.
Not only does [the drug] appear to be effective, but its very selective, Lai says. its highly toxic to the cancer cells, but has a marginal impact on normal cells.
Artemisia isn’t new at all. Chinese folk practitioners extracted it from the plant Artemisia annua L. commonly known as wormwood, thousands of years ago for use in the treatment of malaria, Lai says.
