The other day I was talking about the cranberry juice with my buddies. It turns out that drinking cranberry juice or even having cranberry extracts are effective in fighting a life threatening disease like<\/strong> ovarian cancer.<\/p>\n

For cancer(irrespective of it’s kind), Chemotherapy is the standard treatment. The Platinum drugs are used mainly for chemotherapy processes. Eventually, cancer cells become sort of immune to the platinum drugs used for Chemos. But, once cranberry juice extracts (equivalent of one cup) are added to the drugs, it boosts the effectiveness of these Chemo drugs. Also, the cranberry extracts of the juice itself help reduce the side effects of the high doses of Chemo drugs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This particular study adds to the benefits of drinking cranberry juice. The juice can sensitize resistant to human ovarian cancer<\/strong> cell lines. As the co-presenters of the research paper Ajay P. Singh, Ph.D., and Nicholi Vorsa, Ph.D. agrees<\/strong>:<\/p>

\nFor the first time, we have shown in our in vitro studies that cranberry extracts can sensitize resistant human ovarian cancer cell lines.This has opened up exciting possibilities for therapeutic intervention associated with platinum therapy.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, this is just a prediction. The recent study is based on past predictions. ‘A-type’ proanthocyanidins<\/strong>, which are antioxidant compounds<\/a> are unique to cranberries only. The detailed mechanism behind the antioxidant cranberry compounds is beyond the scope of this article. But, one thing is for sure. If you drink cranberry juice, it might just save you from ovarian cancer<\/strong>. I am sure there will be further research done regarding this matter.<\/p>\n
