This Spice May Reduce Inflammation In The Colon, Preventing Cancer...
Dear Reader,
Some intriguing, but preliminary, research on ginger and colon cancer. Supplements of ginger have been shown to lower some indicators of inflammation in the colon according to a new study that appears in Cancer Prevention Research.
This work is an initial step in finding out if the compounds that are naturally a part of ginger root might also prevent cancer of the colon. While the study is hailed as being well done, exciting even, it's still early in the game.
According to lead study author Suzanna M. Zick, ND, a naturopathic doctor and research assistant professor at the University of Michigan Medical School, there are many cell culture studies that have shown ginger to be an anti-inflammatory. Studies in mice and other rodents have demonstrated that ginger can stop the formation of tumors when fed to the subject animals that were exposed to a chemical that causes cancer of the colon.
Ginger has been used in food preparation in the Far East for many thousands of years. Researchers admit that there's likely a reason for such long-standing popularity, though science has yet to figure out exactly what it is.
Naturally the researchers wanted to see if findings on ginger root in rodents translated to people.
To get the answer, the team randomly assigned 30 healthy adult subjects to take capsules of either 2 grams (in eight 250-miligram doses) of powdered ginger root or a placebo powder every day for 28 days. The amount used in the research measures out to be about 2 tablespoons of ground up ginger according to Zick.
People in the ginger study were asked to take the supplements with meals, and weren't allowed to use any other drugs, even aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, either before or during the study as these are also known for their anti-inflammatory effects.
Both at the start and end of the research, tissue samples from the lining of each participants' colon were taken. The team tested these samples for eicosanoids, a chemical known to increase inflammation in the digestive system.
They saw that ginger was able to bring down the level of inflammatory markers in the tissue, compared to the placebo tissue samples. And we do know that increased inflammation in the digestive tissue is very strongly associated with developing precancerous lesions, even cancerous polyps.
While the amount of ginger used in the study was way over what the average American might take in as part of our daily diet, in India, China and Japan people eat that much on a daily basis. Coincidence then that these countries also have lower rates of colorectal cancers?

This Spice May Reduce Inflammation In The Colon, Preventing Cancer... Continued...
Of course the Asian diet might also be protective because it has more veggies
and fiber, and less red meat. Researchers are still working that out.
The side effects of ginger supplements are stomach upset, heartburn and gas,
but nothing more serious. Supplements of ginger are usually well tolerated and
safe for most people.
Certainly if you are at high risk of colon cancer, you'll want to discuss this
research with your own healthcare team. While no one is ready to have you running
for supplements or putting ginger on everything you eat, it can do no harm to
enjoy a little bit now and again. Certainly a preventive approach that's neither
toxic nor harmful to quality of life, and is affordable to boot, is all worth
further study.
To your good health,
