That success is probably due to two very powerful compounds: PSP and
kureha. The effectiveness of both compounds as cancer treatment has been
clearly demonstrated in Japan.^9 In fact, more than 400 studies have shown that
an extract of the karawatake mushroom can significantly boost cancer treat-
ment, on its own or along with conventional treatments like chemotherapy.^10
The medicinal mushroom trio in BreastDefend packs a powerful can-
cer-fighting punch. But the formula doesn’t stop there.
DIM defeats even drug-resistant cancers
DIM (scientifically known as Diindolylmethane) is a cancer-fighting pow-
erhouse—able to take on even treatment-resistant breast cancer cells.
A groundbreaking study^11 found that mutant breast cancer cells—cells that
are resistant to radiation and chemotherapy—can be defeated by DIM. That’s
pretty remarkable! Poison chemicals and radiation can’t stop these cancer cells,
but a vegetable compound can. (It certainly seems to have helped Marion!)
And DIM works successfully against non-resistant breast cancer cells, too.
Another in vitro study^12 showed that this amazing phytochemical could keep
two very different types of breast cancer (MCF-7 cells and MDA-MB-468
cells) from multiplying.
BreastDefend’s Cellular Support Blend offers more
protection against advanced breast cancer
The final four ingredients in the BreastDefend formula come together in
a ‘Cellular Support Blend.’
- Scutellaria barbata
- Astragalus membranaceus
- Tumeric rhizome extract BCM-95
- Quercetin
Scutellaria barbata has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for
treating tumors. And it turns out that this herb may be particularly useful for
the fighting advanced breast cancer. In one pilot study^13 (using a special extract
called BZL101), researchers saw four patients stabilize, and tumors shrink in
five patients after treatment with the Scutellaria barbata extract.
Astragalus membranaceus helps cancer patients in two very important ways.
First, astragalus neutralizes the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation.^14 Sec-
ond, it strengthens the immune system—in particular, the herb has been shown
to keep tumors from suppressing critical white blood cells called macrophages.^15
