As more and more research is being carried out on the burdock herb,
many new and interesting discoveries are being made.
A relationship is being examined between the burdock plant and its
anti fungal and anti bacterial properties.
Even more importantly, burdock is showing signs of possibly being
able to fight against tumors; it could be a cancer-fighting agent
as well. Research has shown that since many of the cancer causing
compounds are in almost all foods which are eaten and stored in
human fat tissues, burdock might very well be of help in fighting
cancer because of the role that it can play in depleting these
mutagens.
The burdock herb has a long history of usage for treating cancer -
Hildegard of Bingen, a well known medieval herbalist, often used
burdock for treatment of cancerous tumors. Recent studies have
shown that arctigenin, a chemical in burdock, does in fact slow
tumor growth.
Burdock is an active ingredient in a couple of popular natural
herbal remedies for cancer, including Essiac and Hoxsey. Of course,
cancer is a serious and potentially life-threatening disease, for
which a broad-spectrum approach must absolutely be taken. Herbs
should be used to supplement and strengthen the overall battle
plan, and not in isolation.
Japanese researchers have isolated a substance in burdock root,
named the "B-factor", that is said to reduce cell mutation. There
is also a dietary fiber in burdock seed, called "arctiin", that may
slow or stop the growth of malignant disease in the breast in its
early stages; it may also have similar benefits against colon and
pancreatic malignancies.
In cases of diabetes, recent research has shown burdock root's
blood-sugar-lowering effects in laboratory animals. In one study,
burdock root reduced blood sugar levels and improved carbohydrate
tolerance in lab rats. The burdock herb works by filling the
intestines with the fiber, "arctiin", which thus prevents the
absorption of sugars into the bloodstream.
This same action also appears to prevent the absorption of toxic
compounds from food (further supporting the herb's use as an
effective blood cleanser.
