[Music] the recent observations on fate as an anti-carcinogen have support from population-based studies which show lower incidence of cancer in populations consuming vegetarian type diets because fiate is found in beans grains nuts and seeds the average daily intake of fiate in vegetarian diets is about twice that of those eating mixed diets of plant and animal Foods dietary Fate has been reported to prevent kidney stone formation protect against diabetes Dental cavities heart disease as well as against a variety of cancers uh do all these potentially beneficial effects to sound too good to be true I mean
are there other examples of compounds made by plants that can have benefits across multiple diseases yes aspirin for example which is actually found throughout the plant kingdom may also account for some plant-based benefits but of all the things Fates can do the anti an cancer activity of phytic acid also known as phate also known as ip6 or anasol hexaphosphate is considered one of the most important beneficial activities dietary Fates are quickly absorbed from the digestive tract and rapidly taken up by cancer cells throughout the body and has been shown to inhibit the growth of all
tested cancerous cell lines Fates have been shown to inhibit the growth of human leukemia cells colon cancer cells both estrogen receptor positive and negative breast cancer cells voice box cancer cervical cancer prostate cancer liver tumors pancreatic melanom and muscle cancers all at the same time not affecting normal cells right that's the most important expectation of a good anti-cancer agent is for it to only affect cancerous cells and leave normal cells alone and that's what Fates appear to do leukemia cells taken from cancer patients are killed by Fates normal bone marrow cells however are spared which
may explain why you know bean extract kill off colon cancer cells but seem to leave normal colon cells alone both the invivo and invitro experiments have shown striking anti-cancer effects demonstrated that fate is broadspectrum anti-neoplastic Agent meaning anti-tumor agent across different cells and tissue systems what are the mechanisms of action by which Fates battle cancer how do Fates fight how don't they fight look at this fate targets cancer through multiple Pathways a combination of antioxidant anti-inflammatory and immune enhancing activities detox differentiation anti-angiogenesis in other words phate affects the principal Pathways of malignancy and not just
some of them apparently phate targets and acts on all of them the antioxidative properties one of the most impressive characteristics of fate in fact that's why the meat industry adds Fates to meat to prevent the oxidation of fat that begins the moment of Slaughter besides affecting tumor cells directly Fates can act on our immune functions by augmenting natural killer cell activity the cells in our body that hunt down dispose of cancer cells as well as neutrophils which help form our first line of defense and then starving tumors as more of a last line of defense
not only can Fates block the formation of new blood vessels that may be feeding tumors they can disrupt preformed capillary tubes indicating that Fates may not only help blockade tumors but actively cut off existing supply lines what's really remarkable about fate is that unlike other anti-cancer agents it not only causes a reduction in cancer cell growth but also what's called enhanced differentiation reversion of the appearance of cancer cells back to that of normal meaning it causes cancer cells to stop acting like cancer cells and go back to acting like normal cells uh you can see
this with colon cancer cells for example in the presence of Fates human colon cancer cells mature to structurally and behaviorally resemble normal cells and this has been demonstrated in leukemia cells prostate cancer breast cancer and muscle cancer cells as well [Music]
