Scientists from all over the world continue to work on creating drugs that cure cancer, but it’s still far from creating a drug that is accessible to all sufferers.
However, today we can use in the fight against the disease cheap and affordable means with proven effectiveness.
This is - ordinary garlic, sold on store shelves. Further in the article you can find step by step instructions on the use of plants in the treatment.
How does a tumor react to a vegetable?
The data of scientific studies conducted in recent years, reliably confirm: eating garlic heads really inhibits the growth and vital activity of cancer cells.
What types of oncology can affect?
The greatest effectiveness shows in the fight against stomach cancer. Also garlic can be successfully used in the fight against cancer:
- esophagus and intestines;
- brain;
- Bladder;
- prostate gland and other organs.
What are neoplasms afraid of?
The therapeutic effect of garlic is caused by the presence in its composition of a number of chemical compounds: selenium, alexin, allicin and sulfur compounds. These substances have the ability to provoke a number of processes in the human body, namely:
- decrease in tumor growth rates;
- cancer cell death;
- impaired blood flow to the tumor;
- DNA integrity protection;
- protection of the body against the negative effects of chemotherapy.
Interesting fact: relatively recently, scientists have discovered a promising way to affect cancer cells with gold. It was found out how the tumor reacts to gold. Metal nanoparticles have been found to improve the effect of chemotherapy and eliminate its undesirable effects. Gold molecules interacting with cancer cells show high efficiency in their destruction, while not harming the body and, in particular, nervous tissue. It turns out that the cancer reaction is such that the cancer is afraid of garlic, and it turns out that it loves gold, but in the end both methods of fighting the disease help the patient to recover.
Cancer prevention
Garlic can be used to prevent cancer of various organs. It is proved that people who eat a large amount of garlic are also less likely to become ill with oncology.
Garlic contains tryptophan - a substance that is converted into melatonin in the human body. It is a sleep hormone that neutralizes free radicals and protects us from cancer.
People whose body does not produce enough melatonin (among them, for example, the elderly) are at risk of cancer incidence. It is for this reason that older people suffer from cancer more often than young people. I.e, regular consumption of garlic can smooth out the lack of melatonin in the body and, as a result, reduce the risk of developing the disease.
Step by step instructions on how to properly use the plant in the treatment?
Until now, experts have no consensus about the optimal therapeutic dosage of garlic. However, there are several universal recommendations:
- Before you eat a garlic clove, peel it and then set aside for half an hour. This extract is necessary so that the necessary substances can be developed in the head.
- Quite sufficient dosage will be the use of one to one and a half heads of garlic per day.
- If you do not tolerate the smell or taste of garlic - try to add garlic oil or garlic powder to food. So you mask it with other products.
In folk medicine, use the following recipes.
Tincture
- Prepare some juniper stumps weighing about 100 grams, two heads of garlic and 2-3 liters of wine.
- Bay juniper wine, let the mixture brew for 14 days, periodically shaking it.
- Then add the finely chopped garlic and leave the mixture for another 10 days.
- Having sustained the tincture, separate the liquid and take it 2 times a day, drinking 50 grams after meals.
Decoction with honey
For cooking, you will need to prepare 200 grams of crushed garlic and a pound of honey.
- Put the ingredients in a saucepan and mix them.
- Cook the mixture in a water bath for at least 40 minutes.
- After cooking, remove the foam and let the cooked broth cool.
- Take a decoction daily for 1 tablespoon during a meal at least 3 times per day. Keep in a cool and dark place.
Outdoor use
In the presence of external (close to the skin) tumors, garlic crushed to a pasty state, wrapped in gauze or bandage, can be applied to the tumor site. When garlic juice comes in contact with the skin, the anti-cancer properties of garlic have a relatively weak effect on cancer. To achieve the effect, it is necessary not to remove the garlic lotion for at least a few hours.
Please note that garlic under no circumstances can be the only means used in the treatment of cancer. However, its use can enhance the effect of treatment in combination with vitamin and mineral supplements and means of official medicine.
