The Benefits of Soursop

Soursop is the fruit of the graviola tree from the Amazon Rainforest. The fruit is very large and the subacid sweet white pulp is commonly used to make fruit drinks, sherbets and such.

The principal interest in this plant is because of its strong anti-cancer effects. Although it is effective for a number of medical conditions, it is its anti tumor effect that is of most interest. This plant is a proven cancer remedy for cancers of all types.

Besides being a cancer remedy, graviola is a broad spectrum antimicrobial agent for both bacterial and fungal infections, is effective against internal parasites and worms, lowers high blood pressure and is used for depression, stress and nervous disorders.

Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to:
* Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss.
* Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections.
* Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the treatment.
* Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life.

The source of this information comes from one of America‘s largest drug manufacturers, the fruit of over 20 laboratory tests conducted since the 1970′s. Extracts from the tree were shown to:
* Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 types of cancer, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreatic cancer.
* The tree compounds proved to be up to 10,000 times stronger in slowing the growth of cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug!
* What’s more, unlike chemotherapy, the compound extracted from the Graviola tree selectively hunts down and kills only cancer cells. It does not harm healthy cells!

Various parts of the Graviola tree–including the bark, leaves, roots, fruit and fruit seeds have been used for centuries by medicine men and native Indians in South America to treat heart disease, asthma, liver problems and arthritis.

When researchers at the Health Sciences Institute in America were alerted to the news of Graviola, they began tracking the research done on the cancer-killing tree. Evidence of the astounding effectiveness of Graviola were revealed.

The National Cancer Institute performed the first scientific research in 1976. The results showed that Graviola’s leaves and stems were found effective in attacking and destroying malignant cells.

A study published in the Journal of Natural Products, following a recent study conducted at Catholic University of South Korea stated that one chemical in Graviola was found to selectively kill colon cancer cells at 10,000 times the potency of (the commonly used chemotherapy drug) Adriamycin.

The most significant part of the Catholic University of South Korea report is that Graviola was shown to selectively target the cancer cells, leaving healthy cells untouched. Unlike chemotherapy, which indiscriminately targets all actively reproducing cells (such as stomach and hair cells), causing the often devastating side effects of nausea and hair loss in cancer patients.

A study at Purdue University recently found that leaves from the Graviola tree killed cancer cells among six human cell lines and were especially effective against prostate, pancreatic and lung cancers.

So bear in mind the benefits of this tree and add sour sop juice to your shopping basket. Tell your friends and relatives about it. Better still, plant one in your garden.
