Modified Citrus Pectin MCP and Cancer

Researched and written by Keith Bishop, Clinical Nutritionist, Cancer Coach, and Retired Pharmacist

PectaSol is a form of modified citrus pectin (MCP) derived from the pith (the white, spongy layer between the outer peel) of citrus fruits. It has been modified to a specific molecular weight and structure to ensure bioavailability and systemic benefits. PectaSol is known for inhibiting galectin-3, a protein that promotes cancer growth and metastasis and cancer.[i]

How Does PectaSol Work?

PectaSol works by blocking galectin-3, which is involved in cancer cell adhesion, proliferation, and metastasis.[ii] By inhibiting galectin-3 and galectin-8,[iii] PectaSol can help prevent cancer cells from spreading and support the effectiveness of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and cancer treatment. MCP, given orally, inhibits carbohydrate-facilitated tumor growth, angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth), and metastasis in the body via its effects on galectin-3 fu...

Boswellia serrata, or frankincense, has been used in traditional medicine for centuries. Recent studies have shown promising anticancer effects, making it a potential natural treatment for cancer.

Health Benefits of Boswellia

Boswellia offers a range of health benefits beyond its anticancer properties. Its potent anti-inflammatory effects make it helpful in treating conditions such as arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and asthma. Additionally, Boswellia can help reduce pain and improve respiratory health.[i]

Boswellia Anticancer  Ingredients and Mechanisms

Boswellia's anticancer properties are primarily attributed to its active compounds, boswellic acids. These compounds inhibit the production of leukotrienes, molecules that contribute to inflammation and tumor gro...
