(Natural News) Conventional cancer
treatments like chemo and radiation therapy are known for causing an array of
undesirable health effects. Even so, the cancer industry continues to parade
their flagship products as the end-all be-all of cancer treatment. But many people
believe that medicine shouldn’t hurt. Perhaps that’s why scientists continue to
look for other, less damaging options. Research continues to point to an array
of herbs and plants as a means of natural cancer treatment, but the latest
science has identified a surprising source of cancer-killing compounds: Human
breast milk.
Mother’s
milk is known for containing a bevy of antibodies and other beneficial
compounds for newborn babies, to protect them from all the harmful things in
the world while their immune system matures. So in a way, as strange as it
sounds, the notion that breast milk may hold the
key to fighting cancer naturally, really isn’t that surprising at all.
Breast milk as a cancer-killer
Professor
Catharina Svanborg has been paving the road to capitalizing on breast milk’s
cancer-fighting abilities out of her lab at Lund University in
Sweden. Specifically, the professor has been working on a way to bind a breast
milk protein known as alpha-lactalbumin to oleic acid, a fatty acid found in
olive oil, nuts and seeds.
The
cancer-killing combination she’s dubbed HAMLET (an acronym for human
alpha-lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells) has shown great success in
laboratory applications, shrinking brain, bladder and colon tumors with ease.
Tests involving animal and human cancer cell lines have shown that HAMLET is
effective against at least 40 types of cancer.
“Looking
down the microscope at the dying tumor cells, we were quite excited, especially
when the experiment was repeated and showed the same effect twice. We had used
non-cancerous cells for a long time in similar experiments and they had not
died,” Svanborg
told The
Telegraph, speaking about the amazing way breast
milk kills cancer.
But
the funny thing is that Svanborg discovered all of this two decades ago.
Overcoming skepticism and doubt
Svanborg
reportedly went onto patent her confirmed discovery in 1995. She published her
research, hoping to take the cancer industry by storm with her amazing find.
But instead of being met with praise and applause, she was simply met with
disbelief.
“There
was a certain degree of skepticism. It is about being let into the cancer
community more than anything else,” the professor contended. As a university
professor and immunologist, Svanborg wasn’t considered part of the cancer or
pharmaceutical industries — and she struggled to have her work taken seriously.
As a specialist in infectious diseases, and a threat to the profit-driven
cancer industry, her research
on breast milk and cancer fell on deaf ears.
But
Svanborg was determined and would not be deterred. “One has to be stubborn when
it is a journey into unchartered territory,” she said. For the last 20 years,
Svanborg has continued her research and continues to turn her skeptics into
believers, one by one.
“It
is an absolutely thrilling project. If you hang in there, it opens up new ways
of thinking about protein structure, cell biology and the nature of cancer.
People are coming around to the fact that this is very well supported by
in-depth studies,” Svanborg contended. The team recently developed a way to
mass produce HAMLET, which means it could soon become a widely used cancer
treatment. Her game-changing discovery promises to kill cancer cells without
damaging health cells — a feat that eludes conventional treatments like chemo.
Though
HAMLET still has a ways to go before becoming an approved form of treatment
that’s available to the masses, Svanborg remains hopeful. You can learn more
