Recent research highlights the potential of natural compounds in supporting cancer therapies, specifically targeting Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs), which play a significant role in cancer recurrence. Unlike regular cancer cells, CSCs can promote cancer metastasis and inflammation, making them challenging to treat with conventional therapies like chemotherapy.
Several bioactive compounds, found in everyday foods and plants, are being studied for their potential to aid in the fight against CSCs. These compounds include sulforaphane, curcumin, genistein, resveratrol, and EGCG, among others. Research led by experts like Dr. Young S. Kim has shown promising results, suggesting these compounds may help support the immune system and improve cancer treatment outcomes.
In addition to these natural compounds, certain medications like Accutane (retinoic acid) and Niclosamide are being researched for their possible supportive roles in cancer treatment.
While more research is needed, these bioactive compounds, backed by scientific studies, offer hope as part of a comprehensive approach to cancer treatment.
