These Amino Acids may Exert Effects Against Cancer
Amino Acids
Arginine may block the formation of some forms of Cancer (Arginine inhibits the cellular replication of 24 different types of cancer in animals): [1]
One of the means by which Arginine counteracts Cancer is by reducing the activity of Ornithine Decarboxylase, an enzyme that is associated with some types of Cancer.
Caution: Arginine is also speculated to exacerbate some types of Cancer, however this is not well proven.
Alliin (a derivative of Cysteine) may prevent chemically induced Cancers. [2]
Cysteine (especially the N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) form of Cysteine) helps to prevent many forms of Cancer: [3]
