While this study is new, it was inspired by another study conducted at the beginning of the 21st century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Vitamin E studies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2001, the National Cancer Institute conducted a trial to determine whether the antioxidant vitamin E could treat or prevent the development of prostate cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The study, which was supposed to last 12 years and cover 35,000 men, was discontinued after just three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It turns out that vitamin E intake not only does not slow down or prevent the disease, but even increases the number of diagnosed cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The new study with mice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After Professor Trotman analyzed the results of the vitamin E study, he wondered if a pro-oxidant (the opposite of an antioxidant) would give better results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His new study with mice confirms this hypothesis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When mice with prostate cancer were given menadione, it destroyed the mechanisms that keep cancer cells alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Scientists found that menadione destroys prostate cancer cells by eliminating the lipid PI(3)P.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Hope for successful results in humans<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Professor Trotman\u2019s team hopes that the positive results will also be confirmed in human clinical trials. According to Trotman:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur target group is men who have had a biopsy and have been diagnosed with an early stage of the disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We wonder if if if they start taking this supplement, we will be able to slow down the progression of the disease.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An unexpected advantage of menadione is that it also shows effectiveness against myotubular myopathy, a rare disease that inhibits muscle growth in babies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Children diagnosed with this disease rarely live to infancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The scientists found that using menadione to reduce PI(3)P doubled the lifespan of mice suffering from myotubular myopathy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Conclusion: Vitamin K and Prostate Cancer Prevention<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the results of the studies with mice are encouraging, it remains to be seen whether they will be confirmed in humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If this happens, the discovery could change the lives of millions of men diagnosed with prostate cancer each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This would mean a better quality of life and new hope for people suffering from this insidious disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So far, the precursor of vitamin K has shown promising results and gives hope for a healthier future.<strong>Follow our Facebook group for mutual help \u2013 We HELP everyone with tried and tested folk recipes here \u2013<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you liked the article and useful tips from our online health portal, you can follow us and share them with your friends, as well as your opinion (or experience) in the comments!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vitamin K precursor destroys cancer cells in new scientific discovery According to the American Cancer Society, prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in men in the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":14021,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14020","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-advice"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The precursor of vitamin K destroys cancer cells \u2013 a new scientific breakthrough!
