What are AntiCan Caps?

AntiCan Caps are a 100% safe and effective natural remedy containing herbs with strong antioxidant and liver promoting properties. These ingredients have been chosen to address three very important areas of systemic health:

1. Many of the herbs in AntiCan Caps have known antioxidant properties (see below for more information on the vital role played by antioxidants)

2. The herbs in AntiCan Caps are also well-known for their ability to maintain liver health. The liver is one of the most important organs in the body. More than 500 body functions have been identified with the liver, including system cleansing and detox, the breakdown and metabolism of dietary fat and sugars, production of certain plasma proteins and cholesterol, storage of iron, removal of poisons, drugs and bacteria from the blood, the regulation of blood clotting and the maintenance of a healthy immune system. Liver health is often severely affected by alcohol and drug abuse and the liver may also be damaged as a side effect of some drugs or treatments like chemotherapy and radiation. Maintaining optimal liver health is therefore of vital importance.

3. Taken regularly, AntiCan Caps may help to maintain the healthy functioning of every cell in your body and strengthen the immune system to ensure continued health and vitality. As we all know, a healthy strong immune system is a key element in protecting the body against infection or diseases like cancer, as well as in the promotion of recovery after illness. As such the strong tonic effect of the ingredients in AntiCan Caps are of great benefit in maintaining systemic as well as cellular health.

What are the ingredients?

This remedy contains the following proven herbal and homeopathic ingredients:

Sutherlandia frutescens also traditionally known as 'Cancer Bush' or 'Kankerbossie' is a medicinal herb exclusively found in Southern Africa and has been used by indigenous people for thousands of years to treat cancer, digestive ailments and also as a powerful tonic. Sutherlandia contains a number of highly active compounds, including pinitol, L-canavanine and the amino acid, GABA. L-canavanine has clearly-documented anti-cancer and anti-viral activity (Swaffer et al. 1995, Crooks and Rosenthal, 1994, Ostlund and Sherman, 1996)

Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) is also called 'Indian ginseng' and is one of the most important Ayurvedic tonic herbs, assisting with growth, health and vigor. Regular use can help to nourish the blood and increase hemoglobin levels. A wide range of clinical studies studies have provided strong support for the therapeutic benefits of this herb, which appears to have demonstrated anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-stress and rejuvinating properties (Altern Med Rev. 2000 Aug;5(4):334-46. Mishra LC, Singh BB, Dagenais S. Los Angeles College of Chiropractic Whittier, CA; Life Sci. 2003 Nov 21;74(1):125-32; J Ethnopharmacol. 2004 Aug;93(2-3):359-61.)

Curcuma longa (Turmeric) Evidence from research on the anti-cancer potential of Turmeric has shown particular effectiveness on cancer of the prostate, breast, skin and colon. (Arbiser JL, Klauber N, Rohan R, et al. Mol Med. 1998;4(6):376-383; Dorai T, Cao YC, Dorai B, Buttyan R, Katz AE. Prostate. 2001;47(4):293-303; Kawamori T, Lubet R, Steele VE, et al. Cancer Res. 1999;59:597-601). This herb is also known for its beneficial effect on liver health.

Viscum album (Mistletoe): This herb is well known for its ability to maintain healthy blood pressure and improve the functioning of the immune system. Results of both human and animal studies recently suggest that this ancient herb also has an important part to play in the supportive treatment of cancer. (Hostanska K, Hajto T, Spagnoli GC, Fischer J, Lentzen H, Herrmann R. Nat Immun. 1995 Sep;14(5-6):295-304.)

Conium mac. (30C) is a homeopathic remedy frequently prescribed for swollen glands and cancerous growths. It is also used homeopathically for painful breasts and to maintain prostate health.

AntiCan Caps contain NO artificial flavorants, colorants or preservatives.

How have AntiCan Caps helped others?

"My husband has been battling prostate cancer and has had both surgery and radiation therapy. After his diagnosis and treatment I noticed a dramatic change in his energy levels, strength and zest for life. I was even more worried about this than the actual cancer which had responded well to treatment. I ordered your AntiCan Caps for him and have started to see the man I knew before coming back. He is playing golf again and has a much healthier appetite and skin color. This remedy has done him a world of good- thank you." - Evelyn W.

"At the beginning of the year a lump in my breast was found to be malignant and, after battling breast cancer 7 years ago, I knew what I was in for. I ended up having the works: a mastectomy, radiation and then chemo. By the end of it I felt shattered and really began to focus on building up my health and strength. I ate organic food (and still do), took plenty of time to rest and used both your AntiCan and ChemoCleanse products. I really feel that these remedies have helped me tremendously as I recovered quickly from the after-effects of chemo and am feeling well and strong only a few months after being discharged from hospital." - Kath

More about AntiOxidants

Oxidation is a process in the body which produces chemicals called free radicals. Free radicals are known to contribute towards the deterioration of body cells, speeding up the aging process and causing abnormal cellular growth which can contribute towards conditions like cancer and heart disease. Antioxidants are naturally occuring compounds which can inhibit or neutralize potentially harmful free radicals in the body and assist the immune system in preventing the growth and spread of cancer cells. Some common examples of antioxidants are Vitamins C and E, Beta-Carotene, and the minerals Selenium and Zinc. Many medicinal herbs are also known to have antioxidant properties.

What is Cancer?

Body cells die and are regularly replaced. This is a normal healthy process. Each cell contains a 'code' which instructs it how to multiply and when it should die. When something goes wrong with this process, cells can begin to develop abnormally. In the healthy body, the immune system works to identify these abnormal cells and destroy them before they proliferate. However, when abnormal cell growth is not controlled by the immune system, it may spread into surrounding tissue and damage organs, blood vessels, nerves and other body systems.

While research strongly supports a genetic component to cancer, it is also becoming increasingly clear that environmental triggers and circumstances are instrumental in whether or not cancer will develop. In other words, a genetic predisposition to cancer will only be translated into cancer itself if there is exposure to cancer-causing agents (carcinogens) or circumstances which precipitate the cancer. While the exact causes and dynamics of cancer are not yet fully understood, it is well known that exposure to certain toxins like tobacco smoke, industrial chemicals or to radiation and ultraviolet sunlight can play a major role. Risk of cancer may also be linked to certain hormones, stress and even to some well-known and commonly used food additives.

Just as there are many different potential causes of cancer, so are there many different types of cancer - from hormone related cancers like prostate cancer, breast cancer, cancer of the cervix and testicular cancer, to cancers of the blood like leukemia and lymphoma. There is no doubt that cancer is becoming a growing epidemic and has been identified as the second most common cause of death in the UK and USA.

A diagnosis of cancer can be a devastating blow. Even the word strikes fear into many hearts and may be seen as a death sentence. These days, however, this is not necessarily the case. As researchers find out more about how cancer develops and how best to manage it, many patients are being successfully treated and even cured of cancer.

How is cancer usually treated?

The three main options for treating cancer in conventional medicine are surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. The most appropriate treatment or treatment combination will depend on the type of cancer, the location, the stage of the disease and whether it has spread around the body.

Removing the tumor or affected area by surgery can prevent spread of the cancer and is often the option that will be most likely to cure the disease completely. Surgery isn’t always appropriate however, for example, if the cancer has already spread to different parts of the body or for certain types of cancer which are not localized, like leukemia (cancer of the white blood cells).

Radiation therapy may be used alone or after surgery in order to destroy any remaining cancer tissue that was not removed. This treatment is used locally. The radiation is focused on a specific area where it will kill cells which are dividing rapidly - like cancer cells.

Chemotherapy is the third treatment option. This is best suited for cancer that is present in several places in the body or types that aren’t effectively treated by surgery or radiation. Chemotherapy uses drugs to kill rapidly dividing cells (like cancer cells) and this is the reason for the numerous side-effects of this treatment.

While conventional medicine has made many advances made in the treatment of cancer, critics point out that while the treatment is often 'successful', the side effects frequently result in further damage to the system. The mortality rate of cancer patients due to the side effects of treatment as well as hospital acquired infections is seen by many as unacceptably high and there is no doubt that, while it can be successful at times, conventional cancer treatment is also unavoidably harsh and potentially harmful to the system. For this reason, medical research is ongoing in a search for more effective, yet less harmful cancer treatments. The role of traditional herbs, complementary therapies and natural remedies in the treatment and prevention of cancer is also increasingly a topic of research, often with very promising results.

Providing Protection

Natural remedies are also beneficial for people wanting to protect themselves against developing cancer in the first place. There is a great deal of research supporting the anti-tumor properties of a number of herbal ingredients with strong anti-oxidant properties. Natural remedies that strengthen the immune system can also help the body to fight against the development of cancer cells before they become a problem.
