Groundbreaking new research reveals that polyphenols, powerful plant compounds found in vegetables, may help the body fight cancer by forcing cancer cells to commit suicide. This natural process, called apoptosis, is the body’s way of removing damaged or dangerous cells before they can spread or form tumors. By triggering apoptosis, polyphenols disrupt the growth and survival of cancer cells without harming healthy tissue.

Polyphenols are abundant in vegetables such as broccoli, kale, spinach, cabbage, and carrots. These antioxidants work by neutralizing harmful free radicals, reducing inflammation, and activating pathways that lead cancer cells to self-destruct. Unlike aggressive treatments like chemotherapy, polyphenols support the body’s own defense system and may lower the risk of cancer over time.

Scientists believe that a diet rich in colorful vegetables can offer powerful protection against many cancers, including breast, colon, and prostate cancer. While research is ongoing, evidence already shows that adding more vegetables to daily meals strengthens overall immunity and promotes long-term health.

This discovery underscores the importance of nutrition in disease prevention. By choosing a plate full of greens and other polyphenol-rich foods, you can give your body the natural tools it needs to defend itself. Eating well is not just about wellness, it can be a key part of cancer prevention.

Uncovering the Effects of Alcohol on Green Tea Polyphenols Release from Albumin Nanoparticles - Cytology and Genetics

Abstract Alcohol-induced dose dumping is a major concern in modified-release formulations. We developed green tea polyphenols encapsulated albumin nanoparticles (GTP-ALB-NPs) to check the key factors governing alcohol-induced dose dumping. GTP-ALB-NPs were prepared from 10% albumin solution and 5mg/mL GTP. Nanoparticles were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (HR-SEM). Drug solubility, swelling behavior, media uptake, and wettability/contact angle measurement were studied. In vitro drug release was studied in release medium with different quantities of alcohol and release kinetics was determined. The similarity factor (f2) test was used to assess the dissolving characteristics of the drug in both alcoholic and non-alcoholic media and the corresponding change in the medium was calculated. GTP-ALB-NPs of <100 nm size were synthesized. GTP became more soluble when the amount of alcohol in the release media was increased. Similar results were witnessed for swelling behavior and the media uptake studies. Contact angle measurements showed all dissolution profiles to be < 90°. The cumulative release of GTP was increased with the increase of alcohol in the release medium. Maximum GTP release (~95%) was observed in PBS with 40% alcohol in 48 h, showing no dose dumping. The release data followed an anomalous mode of drug dissolution and were modeled into zero-order kinetics. The six months stability testing conducted at 25 ± 2°C revealed no significant difference. GTP-ALB-NPs showed a positive effect in alcoholic media compared to nonalcoholic medium. Increased alcohol proportion increased along with the drug release percentage. GTP-ALB-NPs could be safe for alcohol-induced dose dumping and used as a potent carrier of GTP.

Got relatives?

I'm doing homemade medical experiments on mine.

Supplements.
Was using dried aromatic herbs to get polyphenols. Then I read the article below which has fresh oregano with some >200 times more polyphenols than dried oregano. Now have a herb garden and get both fresh and dried.
Adding more when preparing and also having a morning mini polyphenol fresh salad.
