[What is Pine bark?]

Pine bark, botanical name Pinus pinaster, is a maritime pine native to southwest France that also grows in countries along the western Mediterranean.  Pine bark contains a number of beneficial compounds that are extracted from the bark in a way that doesn’t destroy or damage the tree.

[How does it work?]

What gives pine bark extract its notoriety as a powerful ingredient and super antioxidant is that it’s loaded with oligomeric proanthocyanidin compounds, OPCs for short. The same ingredient can be found in grape seeds, the skin of peanuts and witch hazel bark. But what makes this miracle ingredient so amazing?

While OPCs found in this extract are mostly known for their antioxidant-producing benefits, these amazing compounds exude antibacterial, antiviral, anticarcinogenic, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties. Pine bark extract can help reduce muscle soreness and may help improve conditions relating to poor circulation, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, diabetes, ADHD, female reproductive issues, skin, erectile dysfunction, eye disease and sports stamina.

Seems like it must be pretty amazing, but let’s look closer. The list goes on a bit further, as the OPCs in this extract may “inhibit lipid peroxidation, platelet aggregation, capillary permeability and fragility, and to affect enzyme systems,” which basically means it may be a natural treatment for many serious health conditions, such as stroke and heart disease.

Presenting, TOP 10 FOODS FOR FIGHTING CANCER IN THE WORLD

Grapes

Grapes are rich in polyphenolic phytochemical compound resveratrol. , which inhibits the enzymes that can stimulate cancer-cell growth and suppress immune response. They also contain ellagic acid, a compound that blocks enzymes that are necessary for cancer cells – this appears to help slow the growth of tumors.

Green Tea

Green tea contain certain antioxidants known as polyphenols which appear to prevent cancer cells from dividing.

According to a report in the July 2001 issue of the Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, these polyphenols that are abundant in green tea may protect against various types of cancer.

Tomato

Lycopene, a flavonoid antioxidant, is a unique phytochemical compound found in the tomatoes. Studies shows that lycopene protects the skin from ultra-violet rays and thus offers some defence against skin cancer. It also contains very good levels of vitamin A, and flavonoid anti-oxidants such as beta carotenes, Zea-xanthin and lutein. These antioxidants are scientifically found to be protective against cancers, including colon, prostate, breast, endometrial, lung, and pancreatic tumors.

Turmeric

Turmeric is an underground root that is believed to have medicinal properties because it inhibits production of the inflammation related enzyme cyclo-oxygenase 2 , levels of which are abnormally high in certain inflammatory diseases and cancers, especially bowel and colon cancer.

Spinach

Spinach is one of the wonderful green-leafy vegetable often recognized as one of the functional foods for its wholesome nutritional, antioxidants and anti-cancer composition. It is an excellent source of the iron which is an integral part of hemoglobin, which transports oxygen from the lungs to all body cells. When cells are well oxygenated there can be no cancer.

Blueberries

Blueberries are among the highest anti-oxidant value fruits. Their antioxidant value largely comes from poly-phenolic anthocyanidin compounds such as chlorogenic acid, tannins, myricetin, quercetin and kaempferol. Additionally they compose of other flavonoid anti-oxidants such as beta carotene, lutein and zea-xanthin.

Garlic

Garlic is one of the most powerful anti-cancer food. It has immune enhancing allium compounds that appear to increase the activity of immune cells that fight cancer and indirectly help break down cancer causing substances. These substances also help block carcinogens from entering cells and slow tumor development. Diallyl sulfide, a component of garlic oil, has also been shown to render carcinogens in the liver inactive.

Pomegranate

It is one of the most popular anti-cancer superfood.

A new study has found that a substance in pomegranates can slow or even stop the growth of breast cancer tumors. The study, just published in Cancer Prevention Research, found 10 phytochemicals in pomegranates that seem to inhibit the growth of estrogen-responsive breast tumors.

Mushrooms

Mushrooms are one of the most powerful functional foods for preventing and treating cancer. Shiitake mushroom is believed to be effective in fighting the development and progression of cancer by boosting the body’s immune system. Besides shiitake, other varieties of mushroom which boost anti-cancer benefits include Maitake, Reishi and Phellinus Linteus.

Broccoli

Broccoli contain a chemical component called indole-3-carbinol that can combat breast cancer by converting a cancer-promoting estrogen into a more protective variety. It also has the phytochemical sulforaphane that is believed to aid in preventing some types of cancer, like colon and rectal cancer.

This tasty and easy-to-make fruit puree — known by the French term of “coulis” (pron. coolee) — is a great way of jazzing up boring old oatmeal, birthday cake, yogurt or cottage cheese, and it makes a mean popsicle! It’s also a good source of anticancer compounds such as ellagic acid and proanthocyanidins. Why not make a big batch and freeze in smaller portions so you can have some to hand at all times? Yum…
