A little-known plant with a truly bizarre name is now making
headlines as a cancer killer, with the compound of the plant vanishing
tumors in mice with pancreatic cancer.
Known as the ‘thunder god
vine’ or lei gong teng, the Chinese plant is actually integrated into
Chinese medicine and has been used for ages in remedying a number of
conditions including rheumatoid arthritis.
According to the new
research out of the University of Minnesota’s Masonic Cancer Center, the
thunder god plant compound led to no signs of tumors after a 40 day
period — even after discontinuing the treatment.
Published in
the journal Science Translational Medicine and funded by the National
Institutes of Health, even the scientists working on the project were
stunned by the anti-cancer properties of the compound.
Known to
contain something known as triptolide, which has been identified as a
cancer fighter in previous research, it is thought to be the key
component that may be responsible for the anti-tumor capabilities.
Study
leader and vice chairman of research at the Cancer Center explained to
Bloomberg how he was blown away by the effects of the simple plant:
“This drug is just unbelievably potent in killing tumor cells,” he said.
And
just like with numerous other powerful substances like turmeric and
ginger, mainstream science is still slowly confirming what many
traditional practitioners have known for their entire lives.
This
is, of course, due to the fact that there is simply no money for major
corporations in researching the healing powers of natural herbs and
compounds such as the compound found in the thunder god vine. Turmeric
and ginger, for example, have been found to be amazing anti-cancer
substances that are virtually free compared to expensive and dangerous
cancer drugs.
Nevertheless, the Big Pharma sponsored corporate
scientists have managed to ignore these spices as much as possible. In
fact, they have even been caught time and time again faking thousands of
studies to fraudulently demonstrate the supposed value of
pharmaceutical drugs pushed by major pharma juggernauts — many of which
are later forced to pay millions in fines which only slightly stack up
against their billions in profits.
