From Teenagers to Tumors




There are three things teenagers and tumors have in common -- they're temperamental, aggressive and they eat EVERYTHING they come across.

And just like that teen who's always raiding your fridge, cancerous tumors aren't finicky at all about what they eat. They'll make a meal of tissue, muscles, organs, bones, you name it.

And even when you think you've beaten it... even when your doctor gives you that blessed "all clear"... cancer may not be done with you. Big Pharma's estrogen-blocking treatments like aromatase inhibitors can leave behind lasting painful bone damage putting you at risk for dangerous fractures for the rest of your life.

If you're looking to beat the "Big C" and protect your bones at the same time, Korean researchers say they've discovered the perfect, natural complement to your cancer treatment. And here's the really good news -- it won't leave you puking your guts out at 3 a.m. or sporting a bandana to cover your chrome dome.

In an animal study just published in Phytotherapy Research, scientists discovered that simple licorice (we're talking about the real root here -- skip the Twizzlers and Red Vines) may have the power to block tumor growth and protect your bones from being damaged by cancer or cancer treatments.

Researchers injected mice with breast cancer cells, and then treated them with an extract of roasted licorice. The roasting process increased the amount of vital compounds that the researchers believed could be powerful cancer fighters and bone builders.

And, boy, were they right. The roasted licorice extract actually blocked tumor growth in the mice and helped shield their bones from damage.

But the powerful effects of licorice don't stop there. As we've been telling you for years, licorice can help fight everything from inflammation to ulcers. Heck, one study even found that the herb may help promote fertility!

If you're fighting cancer, it's time to give your body all the help it needs. Consider making licorice part of your cancer-fighting regimen, and give your bones the strength it takes to stand up to cancer (and cancer treatment) for good.
