Natural Formulas for Results in Cancer Therapy
Bionutraceutical Company Focuses on Health Benefits of Green Tea as a Result of New Research Findings
Mount Kisco, N.Y. (Vocus/PRWEB ) November 7, 2009 -- Green Tea Extract, a powerful antioxidant and herbal derivative from green tea leaves, may help prevent oral cancer, according researchers at The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center as a result of the study published online in Cancer Prevention Research. This news follows findings from The National Health and Medical Research Council about the efficacy of green tea and mushrooms in reducing the risk of breast cancer in Chinese women published in the October issue of International Journal of Cancer.
Researchers believe that green tea might be promising as a cancer preventative agent for oral cancer patients with a pre-malignant condition known as oral leukoplakia, as over half of the patients in this small study taking green tea extract had a clinical response. Green Tea and Green Tea Extracts has also been used and studied in treatment of a wide variety of diseases including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, heart disease, and cancer, in addition to providing energy.
These exciting research results follow findings earlier this month from a study published in the British Journal of Cancer. The study found that the “curry spice” curcumin, a powerful component of turmeric and a popular Indian spice, demonstrated to help kill cancer cells in patients with esophageal cancer. Researchers believe that curcumin can inhibit the growth and metastasis of tumors in certain types of cancers.
Essence of Life, LLC™, a bionutraceutical company based in Mount Kisco, N.Y., has been at the forefront of the movement to promote the health benefits of natural supplements like green tea and curcumin, developing innovative products based on green tea, curcumin, fermented soy and other herbal spices. “It is gratifying to see that the latest research confirms the efficacy of these safe and natural preventative therapies,” Nair said. The news of these two study results on green tea and curcumin in less than two weeks is very exciting as they continue to show the benefits that Dr. Vijaya Nair, co-founder and CEO, discovered years ago and has implemented in her company’s line of Jiva™ natural nutritional supplements.
Nair’s background includes training in both Eastern and Western medical traditions, including a post-doctoral fellowship at Harvard Medical School. She developed Essence of Life’s line of supplements after conducting extensive clinical research on alternative therapies from Eastern medicinal approaches such as Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine.
The company’s line of Jiva™ natural nutritional supplements includes green tea capsules, along with curcumin and fermented soy capsules, and a fermented soy and curcumin nutritional beverage. The Jiva™ Green Tea Plus Formula contains powerful all natural antioxidants from green tea blended with a Vitamin B complex to help support a healthy immune system and inflammatory response, as well as enhance the body’s natural energy and stamina levels.
“Today’s research has shown that the underlying cause of arthritis, heart disease and cancer is chronic low-grade levels of inflammation in the body,” Nair said. “By combining the power of natural supplements like green tea, curcumin and fermented soy, we can help prevent and reverse inflammation and its associated health risks.”
