防癌大功臣 綠花椰排名第一

為什麼花椰菜能抗癌?


癌症的起因是由於體內DNA受到外物的侵襲,例如病毒、輻射線等,其中有一種是受到自由基傷害而造成的癌症。天然的抗氧化物例如植化素可以減少體內的自由基,因而降低致癌機率。而花椰菜中正富含豐富的植化素,因此抗癌能力也很強。


含類黃酮益處多


類黃酮的角色在於能使維生素C與腎上腺素不被銅氧化,也可以幫助產生抗自由基的酵素,防止血小板凝結作用,是最好的血管清理劑,而花椰菜中的檞皮素(Quercetin)就是類黃酮的主要來源,因此可以抑制致癌物發生作用。



鄭醫師補充:

根據臨床研究,蘿蔔硫素(sulforophane)可以抑制幽門螺旋桿菌的生長。因此胃潰瘍的人可以考慮補充:

動脈硬化其實也有研究證實蘿蔔硫素(sulforophane)可以抑制發炎,協助病情改善:

至於癌症的研究不少,尤其是乳癌跟皮膚炎的預防,有興趣可以參閱:

不只是女性癌症,男性的前列腺癌也有研究發現可以幫助抑制癌症細胞生長:

PNAS 106 (39): 16663-8. doi:10.1073/pnas.0908908106. PMC 2757849. PMID 19805354. //www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2757849/.


至於檞皮素(Quercetin),研究也發現可以抗病毒(包含B肝病毒以及愛滋病毒)、抗發炎、抗癌甚至改善纖維肌痛症等等,好處列舉不完:

建議大家平常可以多攝取綠花椰菜來保健,不過要達到上述研究治療效果,必須是萃取單方的高劑量補充品才能達到,提醒大家留意。
