Parsley and Celery, Apples and Nuts Help Prevent Breast Cancer

In a study published in Cancer Prevention Research, Salman Hyder, the Zalk Endowed Professor in Tumor Angiogenesis and professor of biomedical sciences in the University of Missouri-Columbia’s College of Veterinary Medicine and the Dalton Cardiovascular Research Center, gave apigenin (a common compound found mostly in parsley and celery but also in apples, oranges, other fruit and nuts) to rats with a particular type of breast cancer. The apigenin prevented the cancers from growing their own blood vessels. This slows their development and growth. http://www.naturalnews.com/032410_parsley_tumors.html#ixzz1MVvSu3gb
