Scientists at the Medical University of South Carolina reported in the journal Cancer that three pure organo-sulfur compounds from garlic - DAS, DADS and DATS - "demonstrated efficacy in eradicating brain cancer cells (glioblastomas, a type of deadly brain tumor), but DATS proved to be the most effective". Co-author, Ray Swapan, Ph.D., said 
"This research highlights the great promise of plant-originated compounds as natural medicine for controlling the malignant growth of human brain tumor cells," Ray said. "More studies are needed in animal models of brain tumors before application of this therapeutic strategy to brain tumor patients."

2/9/2016

 
According to researchers Ginger might help protect the nerves of a person who suffers
from diabetes as well as lower their fat levels. Another important way ginger could help
diabetics is by significantly reducing the levels of serum glucose, as well as proteinuria,
thirst and enuresis. These were the conclusions they arrived as a result of testing rats that
were chemically induced with diabetes. The rats that showed these improvements were
given 500 mg of raw ginger. In addition, ginger can help thin the blood, lower blood
​
pressure, increase circulation and lower cholesterol.
