The results are in! A March 2015 review published in the journal Oncology Reports has found quercetin, a chemical plants use to protect themselves from the sun, prevents and kills prostate cancer. One way that quercetin acts is to put a stop to inflammation that increases tumor growth. Quercetin also stops cancer cells from getting the signals they need to survive, so the cancer cells end up committing suicide! To protect your prostate, and decrease your risk of several types of cancer, incorporate foods with a lot of quercetin in them and take a quercetin supplement.
