Salvestrols are a newly identified class of natural anticancer chemicals found in plants, which are non-toxic to normal cells in the body but become activated inside human cancer cells by the enzyme CYP1B1. Good natural sources of salvestrols include strawberries, cranberries, oranges, tangerines, grapes, olives, artichokes, and many herbs. Modern agricultural practices, such as the use of agrochemical sprays and the selective processing of harvested fruit, have unfortunately resulted in a reduction in the salvestrol content of fruit and vegetables. Studies have shown that salvestrol concentrations are up to 30-fold higher in organically grown produce. Salvestrols are known to be produced by plants to defend against attack by pathogens- nightsurfer | Shared With: Everyone - Aug 18 2007 | Salvestrols, Naturally, Derived, Anticancer, Agents, cancer, nutrition, health, herbs, prevention, plants, vegetables, fruit, berries, imported:del.icio.us
