Product description:
Triple Defense is a unique combination of supplements that may help the body in the fight against cancer. Various laboratory studies performed using ingredients found in Triple Defense have shown beneficial effects in breast, colon, skin, liver bladder and lung cancer. They suggest that these ingredients may also be beneficial in the treatment and risk reduction of these cancers in humans. Human clinical studies are currently being conducted including a Phase I trial at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center with women at high risk for breast cancer. This study is in collaboration with the National Cancer Institute at the National Institute for Health. Soy Isoflavones have exhibited properties that suggest they may help to lower the risk of cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, and for the relief of menopause symptoms such as hot flashes. They may help reduce the risk of several types of cancer, including breast, lung, colon, rectal and prostrate cancer.
Calcium D-glucarate may enhance the body’s capacity to resist many types of carcinogens and toxins, and has been shown to inhibit cancer in laboratory animals in over 30 published cancer research journals. One of the major detoxification pathways in our bodies is called glucoronidation. It is a chemical reaction where the body combines a water-soluble substance in the boy with a toxin or carcinogen and removes it from the body. D-glucarate has been shown to inhibit the enzyme responsible for reversing glucoronidation, improving the likelihood that normal detoxification processes may continue.
Lycopene is the most efficient scavenger of singlet oxygen of all the common carotenoids and is able to quench free radicals twice as efficiently as Beta Carotene. Current research suggests that lycopene’s powerful antioxidant activity confers a high degree of protection against cholesterol oxidation, a process believed to influence prostate cancer. By-products of the oxidation of cholesterol (epoxides) measure in cancerous prostate tissue suggest that oxidized cholesterol is either a product of oxidative stress or that oxidized cholesterol has a direct carcinogenic effect. This antioxidant process may also confer heart disease benefits, for both men and women, as oxidation of LDL is one of the first steps in the formation of atherosclerosis.
Citrus Bioflavonoids are added to help with absorption and assimilation.
