An extract derived from fresh blackberries may reduce the size and spread of cancerous tumors, according to new research published in the June issue of the Journal of Biological Chemistry.<\/span><\/h2>\n
\n

Cell biologist Min Ding and plant physiologist Shiow Wang \u2014 both researchers at the U.S. Agricultural Research Service \u2014 found that the active compound in blackberries is a water-soluble flavonoid called CG3, which is responsible for the fruit\u2019s\u00a0Antioxidant<\/a>\u00a0power. Diets rich in fruits and vegetables have long been associated with lower incidence of cancer because of the plants\u2019 high\u00a0Antioxidant<\/a>\u00a0activity, which fights off cancer-promoting\u00a0Free Radicals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

To test the\u00a0Antioxidant<\/a>\u00a0powers of CG3, Ding and Wang administered the compound to a group of mice with skin tumors, and compared those mice to a group that received no CG3. The researchers observed that the mice treated with CG3 experienced a significant reduction in the growth and spread of tumors.<\/p>\n

The researchers also tested the compound on lung cancer tumors \u2014 which are more likely than other forms of cancer to spread to other organs \u2014 in immune-suppressed mice, and found that CG3 again reduced the growth of the tumors and inhibited their spread.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese findings demonstrate for the first time that a purified compound from blackberry fruit could inhibit tumor promoter-induced cancer growth in mice and pave the way for additional investigations on the mechanisms of how fruits and vegetables promote health benefits in humans,\u201d Ding and Wang wrote.<\/p>\n

Natural health advocate Mike Adams, author of \u201cGrocery Warning,\u201d says cancer patients should simply eat whole, fresh blackberries to receive the anti-cancer benefits of the berries, rather than waiting for researchers to turn isolated berry components into expensive pharmaceuticals.<\/p>\n
