Guyabano

Before guyabano was given less attention and i think one of less expensive fruit in the market. But now the price of this fruit grows so fast. You will wonder why?, because this fruit is so easy to grow and you do not need to spray the plant to produced fruit because this will produced fruits on it's season.

I just found out the reason why. According to scientific research guyabano tree, it's fruit, bark, leaves is a natural cancer cell killer. A scientific research in 1976 shows that one of the chemical element of guyabano tree is 10,000 times more potent that chemotherapeutic drug Adriamycin.

The extract from the trees shows that it can effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 types of cancer including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreatic cancer. What is more amazing is that unlike chemotherapy, the compound extracted from the Guyabano tree just selectively hunts down and kills only the cancer cells and it does not harm healthy cells. Various parts of the tree including the bark, roots, leaves, and fruit-seeds have been used for centuries by native Indians in South America to treat asthma, arthritis liver problems and heart disease.

The National Cancer Institute performed the first scientific research in 1976. The results showed that Guyabano leaves and stems were shown effective in attacking and destroying malignant cells. Since 1976, laboratory tests had proven that Guyabano to be immensely potent cancer killer in 20 independent laboratory tests.

A study at Purdue University recently found that leaves from the Guyabano tree killed cancer cells among six human cell lines and were especially effective against prostate, pancreatic and lung cancers.
