Zyflamend in the Treatment of Prostate Cancer 

Note: More on the benefits of natural anti-inflamatories. Zyflamend contains herbs such as ginger, tumeric, holy basil, and others known for their Cox-1 and Cox-2 inhibition.

Data from the Columbia University Department of Urology demonstrates that Zyflamend?, a unique herbal extract preparation, suppresses the growth of prostate cancer cells and induces prostate cancer cells to self-destruct via a process called apoptosis.

The data, published in the October edition of Nutrition and Cancer, showed Zyflamend, a patented formulation from New Chapter, has the ability, in vitro, to reduce prostate cancer cell proliferation by as much as 78 percent and to induce cancer cell death or apoptosis.

The research confirms Zyflamend has COX-1 and COX-2 anti-inflammatory effects, although its anti-cancer affects against prostate cancer were independent of COX-2 inhibition, supporting the postulation that some prostate cancer cells are not affected by COX-2 inflammation.
