Anticancer properties of vinegar

Nature, flavor and meridians:
sour, bitter, warm, non-toxic; meridians: liver and stomach.

Traditional functions:
loose stasis to stop bleeding, detoxify and kill insects.

Ingredient:
Scientific analysis shows that besides 5%~20% acetic acid, vinegar also contains higher alcohols, 3-hydroxybutyl ester, dihydroxyacetone, tyrosol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, acetal, lactic acid, succinic acid , malic acid, oxalic acid, niacin, sorbose and other sugars, 18 kinds of amino acids, multivitamins, and calcium, phosphorus, iron and other minerals.

Vinegar is known as the "elder of a hundred medicines". It has the functions of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, cooling blood and stopping bleeding , help digestion and absorption, beautify skin, prevent aging, prevent colds, sterilize and anti-virus, inhibit and kill roundworms, pinworms and other parasites, prevent liver diseases, enhance kidney function, sober up, anti-cancer and other health care and disease prevention effects. The acetic acid in vinegar has a strong ability to kill a variety of bacteria and fungi including pseudomonas aeruginosa, diphtheria bacillus, salmonella, trichophyton, etc., and even measles, mumps virus, etc., so it is often used to prevent and treatment of various infections of the skin, upper respiratory tract, and gastrointestinal tract.

Dr. Carol Johnston of the Department of Nutrition at Arizona State University reported that many studies have found that eating a small amount of vinegar, such as about 1~2 tablespoons of vinegar with food, can improve postprandial blood sugar levels. Vinegar may also improve insulin resistance. Studies have found that eating vinegar-mixed salad regularly, for example, at least five or six times a week, significantly reduces the risk of ischemic heart disease.

According to a group of studies on the relationship between drinking vinegar and lowering blood pressure in hypertensive patients from the Health Management Center of Osaka University of Foreign Studies in Japan, it was found that hypertensive patients who drank beverages containing 15~30 ml of fruit vinegar every day, and after 8 weeks, patients in the experimental group their blood pressure dropped by about 20 ml Hg. In addition, a study by Showa University in Japan also found that drinking a small cup of vinegar while eating, can help diabetic patients suppress the rise in blood sugar after eating.

A Japanese company has discovered cancer-fighting substances in vinegar made from steamed and fermented rice. They tested 6 mice with tumors, and as a result, the tumors of 2 mice disappeared completely, and the life span of the remaining 4 mice was 4.5 times longer than that of mice with tumors that were not injected with anticancer substances.

The joint research team of Kanazawa Medical University and Kyoto University in Japan has confirmed through mouse experiments that black vinegar made of brown rice has anti-cancer effects. According to the "Nikkei Industry News" report, in the experiment, the researchers first injected the mice with substances that induce rectal cancer, and then divided the mice into two groups, allowing one group of mice to drink normal tap water, and the other group of mice to drink water with black vinegar. After 35 weeks, the rectum of the mice was checked, and it was found that 16 of a group of 27 mice that drank tap water had rectal cancer, while only 7 of the 27 mice that drank water mixed with 0.1% black vinegar in the other group had cancer rectal cancer.

Scientists from Yamanashi University in Japan confirmed that vinegar can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and promote the apoptosis of abnormal white blood cells in leukemia patients.

According to "China Environment News", the old mature vinegar factory in Qingxu County, Shanxi has a history of more than 300 years. None of the three generations of workers who died, retired or worked had ever suffered from cancer, even though the area where the vinegar factory is located is a high-incidence area for lung cancer and esophageal cancer. According to Liu Yaqing, an 85-year-old retired worker from the factory, he entered the vinegar workshop at the age of 16 and until he retired, he had never heard of or seen any workers suffering from cancer. His 67-year-old son Liu Zhengming is also a retired employee of the factory. He has worked as a vinegar worker for more than 30 years, and no employee has been diagnosed with cancer so far. As a result, the factory has become an "insulated area" for cancer, and even the villagers around the factory have never heard of anyone who has had cancer.

Northwest Sichuan was also listed by the Ministry of Health as a high-incidence area for cancer, but the Baoning Vinegar Factory in Langzhong County in this area escaped this disaster. None of the employees working in the vinegar factory suffered from cancer, and the factory is a cancer-free area. Baoning Vinegar Factory has never found a single employee suffering from cancer since its establishment. According to the inference of experts, this is related to the fact that the workers smell vinegar gas every day, are often in contact with vinegar, and often take vinegar. It can be seen that the anti-cancer and anti-cancer effects of vinegar are very obvious.

Why does vinegar have such powerful health care and anticancer effects? Physicians are gradually revealing its function and anti-disease mechanism. One of the most important functions of vinegar is to cleanse the lymphatic system. Vinegar helps eliminate various waste and pathogens that accumulate in the lymphatic system, including lipid waste, mucus, lactic acid and harmful germs. These waste products interfere with the immune system's ability to recognize and destroy cancer cells. After removing a large amount of waste accumulated in the lymphatic system, the immune function will naturally be improved and normalized, and the immune system can perform tasks such as alerting, activating, surrounding, killing, and eliminating. Vinegar can normalize disturbed immune function, relieve autoimmune disorders, and various allergies.

Vinegar is an excellent prebiotic, which can assist the healthy development of intestinal flora and achieve the proper dynamic balance, so that the "good bacteria" and "bad bacteria" are in a state of mutual restraint, which is beneficial to stimulate and train the immune system. It plays an extremely important role in keeping the immune system on high alert and ready for war.

Cancer cells release large amounts of lactic acid during the process of obtaining energy through anaerobic glycolysis. Cancer cells can use lactic acid as a sword and shield. Due to the accumulation of lactic acid, the microenvironment around cancer cells is an extremely acidic environment, and its acidity can reach pH=2. These lactic acids can block the attack of natural killer cells (NK cells) and suppress the function of the immune system. Lactic acid protects cancer cells like a protective shield, pushing back incoming immune cells and easily suppressing a powerful immune system. The highly acidic microenvironment also provides conditions for the invasion and metastasis of cancer cells.

When the tumor is examined under a microscope, it will be found that there are immune cells all around it, which seem to be waiting for an opportunity to attack, but they are powerless, just like a lion meeting a hedgehog, wanting to eat but unable to attack.

Vinegar can make the tricarboxylic acid cycle (the central oxidation link of energy production) run more lively and smoothly, and metabolize lactic acid through it to prevent the accumulation of lactic acid. Vinegar helps to eliminate the lactic acid that has accumulated around the tumor, removing its defensive ring and allowing immune cells to attack the cancer cells.

When cancer cells have not yet formed tumors, the accumulation of lactic acid is relatively small, and vinegar can effectively remove it, exposing the identity of cancer cells, so that immune cells can recognize and destroy them. Therefore, vinegar has excellent anti-cancer effects.

A study pointed out that vinegar contains powerful acetic acid enzyme, which can decompose and destroy the membrane of cancer cells, so vinegar has the function of attacking cancer cells. Vinegar has dual functions of preventing cancer and anti-cancer, and can be used to prevent and treat cancer.

Tumor cells harvest energy in different ways. Tumor cells growing near blood vessels have a sufficient source of oxygen to burn glucose like normal cells, or burn lactic acid. Cancer cells away from blood vessels, in a state of hypoxia, use inefficient glycolysis to obtain energy and produce lactic acid.

Even with plenty of oxygen, tumor cells prefer to burn lactic acid for energy, leaving more glucose for the oxygen-deprived tumor cells to use.

If the tumor cells could be prevented from using lactate and forced to use glucose for energy, the oxygen-starved tumor cells away from the blood vessels would die from the lack of glucose.

Vinegar can effectively reduce the lactic acid content around the tumor, forcing tumor cells to use glucose to produce energy, resulting in the death of cancer cells inside the tumor due to lack of glucose.

An interesting fact:

It has been reported that in the contact between humans and aliens, aliens have confirmed several times that vinegar can cure cancer.
