Ginger for cancer therapy
GINGER are medicinal plants, or what we call the herbal medicine can be used to kill ovarian cancer cells while the components found in chili peppers may decrease or suspected pancreatic tumors shrink. So says Dr. Rebecca Liu, assistant professor in the field of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center, USA, and his team, who performed tests on ginger powder dissolved and applied to ovarian cancer cell cultures.
The results of the study noted that there is evidence of hot spicy food or useful to inhibit cancer growth. The study examined the effectiveness of ginger against cancer cells. However, this study is the first step.
It says, ginger may kill cancer cells by two roads, namely the destruction process called apoptosis and autophagy, cells pemakanan process. This is described in the experts meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research.
According to Drs. Rebecca, many cancer patients are experiencing resistance to standard chemotherapy, in which the action is the process of apoptosis chemotherapy. While ginger has the ability to eat the cell (autophagy) can help those who are experiencing resistance to chemotherapy.
American Cancer Society reported ovarian cancer kills 16,000 American women than 22,000. Ginger is proven to control the inflammatory state, associated with the development of ovarian cancer cells.
In another study using rats given capsaicin (one of the ingredients in chili peppers), Sanjay Srivastava of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, the U.S., it found that capsaicin can kill pancreatic cancer cells. Capsaicin make cancer cells die and have the ability to reduce tumor size.

Food sources of calcium
Until now many of them think that calcium is a mineral that is essential for bone formation and prevent osteoporosis or bone loss. Some recent findings even dare to say that calcium also plays a role in weight loss.
Unfortunately many of us who think that the main source of calcium comes from milk only, but also calcium can be obtained from food sources other than milk. Moreover, recently the price of milk is more expensive, so we must find alternative food sources of calcium out of milk.
Here I present 10 types of major food sources of calcium:
1. Cheese and food made of cheese.
2. Yogurt.
3. Milk and foods made from milk.
4. Fish Sardines and other fish eaten with bones.
5. Vegetables, dark green like spinach, kale and more.
6. Cereal.
7. Orange juice.
8. Soybeans and foods made from soybeans.
9. Soy milk.
10. Bread, food derived from wheat seeds, waffles.
