Research: Tangerine Peel ‘Kills Cancer Cells’

Hopes for a cure to cancer recently got brighter when a group of researchers from Leicester School of Pharmacy, De Montfort University, UK, announced that they discovered that Salvestrol Q40, found in the skin of tangerine, turned into a toxic compound when injected into cancer cells, destroying them. The researchers also suggested that the trend to throw away tangerine peel may have contributed to the rise in some cancer. This is a rather odd finding, since tangerine peel in its raw form has never been a part of humankind’s diet.

This story is brand new and over time we will see if clinical trials in human beings prove effective. But, for what it’s worth, this is a great discovery. God knows we urgently need a cure for cancer. Every item of news about possible cures for cancer is welcomed.

Kudos to the British researchers. Keep at it.
