The Natural Extract That Can Save Smokers

The conservative
media world was rocked by Rush Limbaugh’s recent announcement that he has
advanced lung cancer.

The
famed radio personality, 69, told listeners he began suffering shortness of
breath on his birthday, Jan. 12. He went to a doctor, and his grim diagnosis
followed just days later.

Limbaugh
has started medical treatment. But he hasn’t revealed the details.

Limbaugh started smoking cigarettes at age 16. He
quit by the early 1980s. But he was often photographed with a cigar.[i]

More than 200,000 Americans are diagnosed with
lung cancer every year. Over 150,000 died from it. Tobacco causes 90% of these
cases.[ii] [iii] [iv]

Lung cancer is one of the toughest cancers to
beat. As with Limbaugh, it usually isn’t diagnosed until it’s advanced—stage 3
or 4. Late stage patients have a survival rate of only about 4%[v]

Don’t Wait
Until You Get Cancer to Try This

The best way to prevent lung cancer is to stop
smoking. This is easier said than done. Nicotine is so powerfully addictive
that many people find they simply can’t quit.

Recent research shows that a natural extract may
help protect smokers from lung cancer.

University of Pittsburgh scientists recruited 82
smokers for a randomized clinical trial. They divided participants into two
groups.

For the first week, one group took 10 mg of watercress
extract mixed with olive oil four times a day. The other took a placebo.

For the second week, neither group took anything.

In the third week, the placebo takers switched to
the extract. The extract group switched to the placebo.

Throughout the study researchers measured
carcinogen levels in both groups. They found that watercress extract significantly reduced cancer-causing chemicals in smokers.[vi]

It lowered benzene levels by almost 25%. Acrolein
dropped by over 15%. It reduced a leading carcinogen known as nicotine-derived
nitrosamine ketone by 7.7%.

These numbers may not seem huge. But the study’s
lead author said the extract can make the difference between getting lung cancer
or not getting it.

Dr. Jian-Min Yuan is associate director of the
University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute. Watercress extract is “an incredibly
valuable tool in our cancer-fighting arsenal,” he said.

Watercress extract is even more effective for
people with a genetic predisposition for lung cancer. These are people who lack
a gene that clears carcinogens from the body. Watercress extract reduced
benzene from smokers with this gene variant by 95%. It lowered acrolein by 33%.

The researchers said that eating watercress is
unlikely to have the same anti-cancer effect as taking the extract. You can
find the extract in health food stores and online.

It may be too late for Rush Limbaugh. He says
that he plans to continue to work for as long as he can.

“My intention is to come here every day I can,
and do this program,” he said.

If you can’t quit smoking, don’t wait until you
have cancer to try watercress extract.
