Big Punches Come in Nanosizes for Chemoprevention: curcumin

Abstract

Literature to support the chemopreventive potential of several bioactive molecules has been prolific and convincing, but the clinical development of these agents has been slow. Major hurdles for development of bioactive chemoprevention approaches include low potency, lack of reliable formulations with high bioavailability that are suitable for oral administration, and relevant preclinical primary prevention models that use meaningful doses that can be translated to humans. The paper presented in this issue (Grandhi and colleagues) is an important step forward in this direction. It shows the efficacy of an oral, low dose, solid-lipid nanoparticles encapsulated curcumin and aspirin combined with free sulforaphane for long-term chemoprevention of pancreatic cancer in a carcinogen-induced hamster model. Reproducing this benefit in multiple cancer models, accompanied by development of intermediate markers of response will allow rapid translation of these findings. It will constitute the first successful multipronged attack at key pathways known to initiate and promote carcinogenesis. Cancer Prev Res; 6(10); 1-4. ©2013 AACR.

Pancreatic cancer has claimed some great names, probably chief among them Steve Jobs;  but here are some others:

  • Patrick Swayze: He was diagnosed in January 2008 and died in September 2009, age 57. During that time, he asked Congress for more funding to fight cancer. Now, his wife continues to work with the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.
  • Sally Ride Astronaut
  • Randy Pausch: He became famous after giving his last lecture in September 2007, after he was diagnosed. The lecture went viral, then was turned into a book. He died in July 2008 
  • Luciano Pavarotti: The opera singer was diagnosed in July 2006 and had a mass removed—apparently successfully—but he died in September 2007.
  • Donna Reed: The Dynasty actress died of pancreatic cancer within six weeks of her diagnosis.
  • Dizzy Gillespie: The jazz icon died of his illness, but the Dizzy Gillespie Memorial Fund and the Dizzy Gillespie Cancer Institute were formed in his name.
  • Michael Landon: After being diagnosed, he told LIFE magazine, “If I’m gonna die, death’s gonna have to do a lot of fighting to get me.” He died at age 54.

Lots of people start running in their 30s or older, and it is one of the few sports in which you can improve with age – and even progress to elite level

For many people reminiscing about their childhood sporting memories, the first activity that springs to mind is the dreaded cross-country run. Images of cold, wet days spent slogging around muddy fields; the sound of sadistic PE teachers barking instructions still ringing in the ear. These are not fond memories. Indeed, running was, and still is, frequently viewed as a punishment; the sort of thing that no child in their right mind would want to do voluntarily, let alone enjoy. (Oh, yeah!)

One of the ironies of the current boom in participation is that while unprecedented numbers of people are taking up running, many of these people are in their 30s or above. It was hoped that the 2012 Olympics would "inspire a generation" – but it wasn't really part of the plan for that generation to be aged 30-60.

Hahaha -- I run on a treadmill (shortly, s l o w l y )  but with Rize, it feels wonderful and I go longer.    Check it out:

Good News for Cancer




DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) - Some doctors believe that Americans would be healthier if we ate the way that they do in India, where certain types of cancer are almost nonexistent. Once spice in particular, used in many Indian dishes, could actually be the key to beating cancer. But it might not be a preferred option for people in North Texas, where steaks and burgers are more than just meals, they’re tradition.

“Excessive intake of red meat may put you at higher risk of getting colon cancer,” said Dr. Ajay Goel from Baylor Medical Center at Dallas. “U.S. is one of the leading countries in terms of colon cancer rates and incidences. But on the other end, if you look at India, they have the lowest amount of colon cancer incidences.”

What are people in India, and other Asian countries, doing that the United States is not? In addition to limiting red meat intake, Goel said that the Indian people eat certain spices and herbs that are loaded with cancer-fighting agents. “All of these herbs, or superfoods, have polyphenols in them, which have been shown to have cancer preventative properties,” Goel explained.

Colon cancer has been linked to increased levels of inflammation and stress in the digestive tract. By adding spices like garlic, ginger, thyme, sage and even peppermint to your diet, Goel said, you can drastically cut your risk. “People in that part of the world have been consuming certain spices in their food,” Goel said, “and there has been evidence that some of these spices are strong anti-inflammatories.”

Goel studied the effects of one particular spice — curcumin — which is used in most Indian dishes. Curcumin can not only help prevent colon cancer, but it can also benefit patients already diagnosed with any form of cancer, Goel said. “When they’re consumed in conjunction with chemotherapy, they can help facilitate the effects of chemotherapy,” Goel explained.

Antioxidant-rich foods — like blueberries, cranberries and pomegranate — are also proven to help fight against colon cancer. Sunflower seeds, fish and mushrooms are high in selenium, which can not only stop colon cancer from growing, but research shows that it can even kill off colon cancer. And drinking teas with ginseng can also help lower your cancer risk. “I think diet is a big part when it comes to colon cancer,” Goel said.

Tips for Health: TURMERIC

TIP #1:  Turmeric is one the most thoroughly researched plants in existence today. Its medicinal properties and components (primarily curcumin) have been the subject of over 5600 peer-reviewed and published biomedical studies.


In fact, a five-year long research project on this sacred plant has revealed over 600 potential preventive and therapeutic applications, as well as 175 distinct beneficial physiological effects.

Science Confirms Turmeric As Effective As 14 DrugsThe NCBI has over  1,585  turmeric abstracts covering research on this plant. 
Given the sheer density of research performed on this remarkable spice, it is no wonder that a growing number of studies have concluded that it compares favorably to a variety of conventional medications, including:


  • Lipitor/Atorvastatin(cholesterol medication);
  • Corticosteroids (steroid medications);
  • Prozac/Fluoxetine & Imipramine (antidepressants);
  • Aspirin (blood thinner);
  • Anti-inflammatory Drugs; like aspirin, ibuprofen, sulindac, phenylbutazone, naproxen, indomethacin, diclofenac, dexamethasone, celecoxib, and tamoxifen;
  • Oxaliplatin (chemotherapy drug);
  • Metformin (diabetes drug); and more.

Another way in which turmeric and its components reveal their remarkable therapeutic properties is in research on drug resistant- and multi-drug resistant cancers. TIP #2: Watch the video of Dr. Ajay Goel (click link here) for lab interview.  While there are dozens of substances with demonstrable efficacy against these chemotherapy- and radiation-resistant cancers, curcumin tops both lists.


TURMERIC is a primary nutrient in the Nectr line of health restoring and preserving blends.   TIP #3:  Try Nectr Core today!

Liver Protection, Cancer Turnaround: Terra-bio Tech ingredients

News that can make a CRUCIAL POSITIVE DIFFERENCE in your life:


A new clinical trial published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine is shedding light on turmeric’s remarkable liver protective and regenerative properties.[1]
South Korean researchers at the Clinical Trial Center for Functional Foods, Chonbuk National University Hospital, tested their hypothesis that turmeric may improve liver function by administering a fermented form to subjects, 20 years old and above, who were diagnosed mild to moderate elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, a maker for liver damage and/or dysfunction.
Sixty subjects were randomized to receive 3.0 g per fermented turmeric powder (FTP) or placebo 3.0 g per day for 12 weeks. The treatment group received two capsules of FTP three times a day after meals, for 12 weeks.
What were the results?
Not only did FTP significantly reduce ALT levels in subjects but also reduced serum aspartate transaminase (AST) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), two additional enzymes which when elevated are commonly associated with liver damage. The effects were maintained as long as the subjects remained on the treatment. Also, FTP was well tolerated and without significant adverse effects.
This study adds additional weight to a rather vast body of preclinical research that has accumulated over the past two decades confirming turmeric and its primary polyphenol curcumin’s liver protecting properties. 

Turmeric May Also Kill Liver Cancer

What may be even more remarkable is the accumulating research on the anti-liver cancer properties of turmeric (and curcumin).  The GreenMedInfo.com has 26 preclinical studies showing it kills liver cancer cells and tumors, including one case study involving a 6-month old infant with a life-threatening liver vascular tumor (hemangioendothelioma) who was reported treated successfully with a dietary supplement of curcumin, with 6-year follow-up.
One of the most remarkable facts about turmeric as a potential drug and chemotherapy alternative is its exceptionally high margin of safety. A 2001 study in cancer patients reported that quantities of curcumin up to 8 g, administered per day for three months, were not toxic and resulted in significant anti-cancer properties in a number of those treated.[5] Considering that turmeric is only 3-4% curcumin by weight, this implies that a larger quantity of turmeric can be consumed safely, as well.
Of course, while these results are promising, the real solution to elevated liver enzymes is to identify the underlying causes, e.g. infection, NSAID use, chemical exposures, dietary intolerances, etc., and remove them.  Failing that, those within the integrative medical field who are looking for evidence-based ways to address the sometimes inevitable hepatotoxicity of standard drug-based treatments may find a role for turmeric (curcumin) in their practices.  Other folks, simply looking for ways to improve their health and to prevent liver problems may wish to consume smaller doses through incorporating the spice (which must be organic to avoid the dangers of irradiation) into traditional recipes at culinary doses.
