AMERICAN WOMEN ALERT : The Eden Prescription Nigella Sativa Shrinks Breast Tumors Better Than Chemo and Kills >90% of Breast Cancer Cells: In this remarkable new study on mice, those treated with an extract of nigella sativa oil (thymoquinone) had breast tumors 48% smaller than untreated mice after just two weeks, whereas the chemo drug Doxorubicin resulted in tumors 42% smaller in the same time frame. Most interestingly, treating the mice with both thymoquinone and Doxorubicin together resulted in tumors 70% smaller than untreated mice, showing significant synergy between the two. Note that the mice were implanted (xenograft) with human ER- breast cancer (MDA-MB-231). In vitro, the #thymoquinone reduced ER- breast #cancer cell viability by over 90% in 24 hours, and reduced ER+ (MCF-7) cancer cell viability by up to 80% in 24 hours. #Nigella sativa, also known as black cumin, black seed or black caraway, has already been shown to suppress cancers of the #colon, #prostate, #breast and #liver in previous studies and fortunately is widely available in health food and supplement stores in pill and liquid oil form. #breastcancer #nigellasativa #blackseed ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24098377
