Ginger capable of destroying cancer cells

In modern research, ginger is seen as a beneficial drug in various types of cancer and has shown some promising results.

A study by the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center found that ginger not only destroyed ovary cancer cells, but also prevented them from developing immunity to chemotherapy, which is a common problem in ovary cancer.

In this study, researchers applied a paste of ginger powder and water to ovary cancer cells. Every test found that the cancer cells were destroyed when exposed to the ginger mixture. Each cell either committed suicide, called apoptosis, or they attacked each other, known as autophagy.

Ginger has also been found very beneficial in the treatment of breast cancer, prostate cancer and colon cancer.

Research published in the Journal of Biomedicine and Biotechnology revealed that ginger plant chemicals inhibited the proliferation of breast cancer cells without impacting on healthy breast cells. This property is very important because it does not happen in traditional methods. Although many tumors are cured by chemotherapy, breast cancer cells are more difficult to destroy. They often survive and develop immunity to treatment.

Other advantages of using ginger are that it is easy to be given in capsule form, has few side effects and is a cheaper alternative to traditional medicines.

Modern science certifies that ginger can also reduce inflammation in the colon, which helps prevent colon cancer. In a University of Michigan study, researchers gave a group of 30 patients two grams of ginger root supplements or placebo in 28 days. After 28 days, the researchers found that the patients who had consumed ginger root found a significant reduction in signs of colon inflammation. This may make it an effective natural prevention method for people with colon cancer risk.


Many other cancers, such as anal cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, melanoma and pancreas cancer, have also been studied on the ability of ginger ingredients. It is interesting that an anti-cancer drug is made from beta-almen ginger.
