Research: Curcumin Is A Triple Negative Breast Cancer Killer
Posted on: Tuesday, October 23rd 2012
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), so named because the cells do not have the characteristic receptors for estrogen, progesterone and Her2/neu, is considered the most treatment resistant, primarily because these 'missing receptors' are required for many of the most popular conventional treatments to work, e.g. Tamoxifen targets estrogen receptors. For this reason, TNBC is considered the most aggressive, the most likely to be treated with less-targeted (and therefore more toxic) forms of chemotherapy, and the soonest to return when treatment fails.
Approximately 15-25% of all breast cancer cases are triple negative. Unfortunately, however, the most visible non-profit foundation dedicated to bringing awareness to the condition, the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation, is focused almost exclusively on raising awareness and money for a future pharmaceutical "cure" – much in the same way as its partner, Susan G. Komen, and the larger breast cancer awareness organization, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, act as if removing and addressing the obvious causes of cancer, e.g. carcinogenic chemical and radiation exposures, were not the first priority. For those suffering through or recovering from treatment right now, or trying to decide what to do with a new diagnosis, this latest Chinese study is promising.
Detractors, of course, point out that this latest curcumin research occurred on the level of a cell study, which in the pyramidal power structure of "evidence-based medicine," where the randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled human clinical study is the sole determinant of the ultimate truth, is the most insignificant, and least compelling as far informing treatment decisions. This view, however, is rather naive, insofar the criteria for determining a substance's potential for future use as an FDA drug is not its effectiveness, safety or availability to those in need, rather, how proprietary and profitable the formula is to manufacture, distribute and market to consumers. The "gold standard" of evidence-based medicine therefore becomes literally: "those who own the gold make the standard."
This is not the first study to reveal curcumin's potential value in treating breast cancer. A growing body of experimental evidence clearly shows that curcumin provides a potential drug alternative. GreenMedInfo.com has indexed over 60 in vitro and animal studies demonstrating either curcumin's direct anti-breast cancer activity, or, its ability to enhance breast cancer's sensitivity to conventional chemotherapy. Also, the open access project has indexed over 1500 abstracts from the National Library of Medicine on its potential value in over 500 health conditions: Turmeric Breast Cancer.

Key Ingredients Found In nutraMetrix® Curcumin Extreme™:
Scientists
have long been aware of the wide array of health benefits from the
Indian spice turmeric, which is a source of the active phytochemical
curcumin. Until now, curcumin has been known to have poor bioavailability, requiring high doses to promote health. BCM-95® delivers significantly more pharmacologically bioactive curcumin into the blood than other curcumin sources. This new delivery system allows for a variety of health benefits.
How
is this possible? Traditional 95 percent extract focuses strictly on
one part of the Turmeric rhizome. This bioactive substance of Turmeric
(Curcuma Longa) contains “Curcuminoids” and Curcumin is the most
important molecule. Research has
shown its tremendous health benefit. Even though Curcumin is the most
important molecule, the bioavailability of the regular Turmeric 95
percent extracts sold on the market is not very good in terms of uptake
or sustainability in the blood stream. There are other essential
components present in Turmeric Rhizome which have been neglected during
the traditional method of manufacturing of Turmeric 95 Percent Extract. BCM-95®
represents the natural spectrum of turmeric rhizome. It is 100
percent natural and has been proven to provide optimal bioavailability
for synergistic effect. This new method of manufacture offers tremendous
value in terms of bioavailability.
Antioxidants
have received increased attention, and it’s important to know what
nutrients are antioxidants, and information about them. One such
nutrient is curcumin. Curcumin is a natural extract from the spice
turmeric. Turmeric is derived from the plant Curcuma Longa, a member of
the ginger family.
Curcumin is employed mostly as an antioxidant; though it was traditionally used to promote stomach and joint comfort. The immune-balancing activity of curcumin has been demonstrated through multiple mechanisms to support normal COX-2 and NF-KappaB levels in the body.
The neuroprotective properties of curcumin are among the most studied. Curcumin has been designated as a ‘strong candidate’ for the promotion of neurological health and cognitive function. Curcumin can cross the blood-brain barrier and support the normal uptake of amyloid-beta in the brain. This supports the brain's memory and learning abilities as we age. Another
neuroprotective property of curcumin is its ability to promote normal
levels of glutathione, superoxide dismutase and catalase in the brain. This can help to maintain the health of neurological tissues.
Curcumin
supports the normal production of Phase II liver detoxification
enzymes, including glutathione synthase, heme-oxygenase and catalase. The
liver plays several roles in detoxification: it filters the blood to
remove large toxins, synthesizes and secretes bile full of cholesterol
and other fat-soluble toxins, and enzymatically disassembles unwanted
chemicals. This enzymatic process usually occurs in two steps referred
to as phase I and phase II. They promote the body’s natural enzyme antioxidant defense systems and function as a powerful indirect antioxidant. These
enzymes promote the body’s normal metabolism of harmful chemicals such
as heavy metals, toxins and pollutants into less reactive molecules. Curcumin has also been shown to promote normal hepatic tissue repair.
Broccoli Seed Extract (6% Sulphoraphane Glucosinolates): 167 mg
The
health benefits and protective properties of broccoli and other
cruciferous vegetables have been well documented over the past 25 years. Broccoli seed extract is a potent source of sulphoraphane glucosinolates. Sulforaphanes
support the normal production of Phase II liver detoxification enzymes,
including glutathione synthase, heme-oxygenase and catalase. Sulphoraphanes promote the body’s natural enzyme antioxidant defense systems and function as a powerful indirect antioxidant. Sulphoraphanes work to support gene transcription, which is the process by which genetic information is copied from DNA to RNA, resulting in a specific protein formation. Conclusively, sulphoraphanes work to support the body’s natural defense systems and to maintain elevated levels of glutathione. Glutathione is the master antioxidant of the body. It
is an important chemical that acts as a powerful antioxidant to
preserve and protect the brain and other body tissues by protecting them
from the damage of free radicals. It also acts to recycle vitamin C
& E which also reduce free radicals. Since
glutathione cannot be absorbed intact orally due to gastrointestinal
degradation, sulphoraphane supplementation may be the most effective way
to increase endogenous glutathione concentration.
Selenium (Selenomethionine): 100 mcg
Selenium is a required cofactor for selenoproteins such as glutathione peroxidase. Selenomethionine
is incorporated directly into proteins because selenomethionine cannot
be distinguished from methionine during the translation of mRNA into
protein. This serves as a storage form of selenium and is liberated upon protein catabolism. Selenium accumulates in the prostate, promoting the health of the prostate. Selenium supports immune function by promoting normal growth and development of T helper cells.
