Wow! Tomato Extract Can Prevent Stomach Cancer
Most people probably know that tomatoes are beneficial for preventing heart disease and lowering bad cholesterol levels. However, now tomatoes are also known to prevent cancer.
A study has been promoting tomatoes to fight off more deadly diseases, such as stomach cancer. According to research, tomato extract can inhibit the growth and cloning of stomach cancer cells.
This paves the way for new therapies to treat the deadly disease. Researchers analyzed the whole tomato extract, because of their ability to overcome stomach or stomach cancer cells.
"The antitumoral effects of tomatoes do not seem to be related to particular components, such as lycopene, but suggest that tomatoes be considered as a whole," said Daniela Barone, a researcher at the Center of Research Oncology Mercogliano (CROM) in Italy.
"Different species can have different effects, in different stages of a particular neoplasm," he added.
Various components of tomatoes have also been analyzed for its ability to fight tumor growth in experimental systems, although several studies have analyzed the effects of whole tomatoes. The study is published in the Journal of Cellular Physiology.
