"For seven years, this drug company tried to develop a synthetic patented prescription version of Graviola's anti-cancer chemicals (it being against the law to patent natural compounds), but all attempts failed and the project was terminated. Instead of making their findings public, the researchers boxed up their results and put their research away for good. Eventually, though, the story leaked out and graviola is now increasingly receiving the recognition it deserves among health professionals and researchers alike." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "Graviola has shown a large variety of benefits for many different ailments, one of which is cancer. graviola contains a set of chemicals called Annonaceous acetogenins. It makes these compounds in its leaves and stem, bark, and fruit seeds. In a total of eight clinical studies, several independent research groups have confirmed that these chemicals have significant anti-tumor properties and selective toxicity against various types of cancer cells without harming healthy cells." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "Many terminal cases of cancer have been reversed through the use of graviola, even in people 85 years or older. When cancerous tumors break up, the body may be flooded with poisons, causing the patient to feel quite weak. To minimize the intensity of the healing crisis, it is important to cleanse the colon every day, perhaps through such means as enemas, colemas, or colosan. The kidneys should be supported by drinking the kidney cleanse tea. (For this recipe see Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation or The Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush)." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "Note: graviola has cardio-depressant, vasodilator, and hypotensive (lowers blood pressure) actions. The dosage should be increased gradually. Overly large dosages can cause nausea and vomiting. Use this treatment only when under the supervision of a health practitioner who understands its value, the above actions, and its possible interaction with other drugs. Miracle Mineral Supplement (MMS) All cancers have three things in common: 1. the immune system is weak and depleted; 2. the body is overwhelmed with toxins and waste matter; 3." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"This online report, part of an advertisement for the herbal extract known as paw paw, or graviola, is likely to be grasped like a straw by any desperate cancer patient. But the online report never indicates whether the patient survived. Survival is the only gold standard by which to evaluate cancer therapies. For instance, surgery shrinks tumors, in fact it removes them, but may not prolong life. Paw paw extracts became available in 2003 and soon thereafter were promoted as a cancer cure." - Bill Sardi, You Don't Have to be Afraid of Cancer Anymore (Get the book.)

"For example, if you want to prevent cancer, all you need to do is eat large quantities of raw broccoli, broccoli sprouts and other sprouts, almonds, spirulina, garlic, onions, ginger, and from the herbal world, you can consume licorice root, graviola herb and many other herbs and medicinal plants that will not only prevent cancer, but can even help reverse early-stage cancers. Preventing diabetes and heart disease through nutrition When it comes to diabetes, avoidance is quite simple." - Mike Adams, The Seven Laws of Nutrition (Get the book.)

"If used, Paw Paw should be taken between doses of Protocel with two to three hours between the Protocel and Paw Paw. graviola is similar to Paw Paw, but the potency levels are not standardized, so Paw Paw from Nature's Sunshine is preferred. These days, avoiding supplements that might interfere with Protocel can be difficult because we live in an age of nutritional supplementation, and many people who seek alternative approaches for cancer want to be able to supplement with as much as they can get their hands on. But this can seriously backfire for people using Protocel." - Tanya Harter Pierce, Outsmart Your Cancer: Alternative Non-Toxic Treatments That Work (Get the book.)

"Annonaceous acetogenins are only found in the Annonaceae family (to which graviola belongs). These chemicals in general have been documented with antitumorous, antiparasitic, insecticidal, and antimicrobial activities.13 Mode of action studies in three separate laboratories have recently determined that these acetogenins are superb inhibitors of enzyme processes that are only found in the membranes of cancerous tumor cells. This is why they are toxic to cancer cells but have no toxicity to healthy cells." - Leslie Taylor, ND, The Healing Power of Rainforest Herbs: A Guide to Understanding and Using Herbal Medicinals (Get the book.) "One researcher studying graviola summarized this idea eloquently: "At the time of preparation of this current review, over 350 Annonaceous acetogenins have been isolated from 37 species. Our preliminary efforts show that about 50%, of over 80 Annonaceous species screened, are significantly bioactive and are worthy of fractionation; thus, this class of compounds can be expected to continue to grow at an exponential rate in the future, provided that financial support for such research efforts can be found." - Leslie Taylor, ND, The Healing Power of Rainforest Herbs: A Guide to Understanding and Using Herbal Medicinals (Get the book.) "Then, one third received nothing (the control group), one third received the chemotherapy drug adriamycin, and one third received the main graviola acetogenin, annonacin (at a dosage of 10 mg/kg). At the end of two weeks, five of the six in the untreated control group were still alive and lung tumor sizes were then measured. The adriamycin group showed a 54.6 percent reduction of tumor mass over the control group—but 50 percent of the animals had died from toxicity (three of six). The mice receiving annonacin were all still alive, and the tumors were inhibited by 57." - Leslie Taylor, ND, The Healing Power of Rainforest Herbs: A Guide to Understanding and Using Herbal Medicinals (Get the book.) "Researchers in Taiwan reported in 2003 that the main graviola acetogenin, annonacin, was highly toxic to ovarian, cervical, breast, bladder and skin cancer cell lines at very low dosages, saying "annonacin is a promising anti-cancer agent and worthy of further animal studies and, we would hope, clinical trials."23 An interesting in vivo study was published in March of 2002 by researchers in Japan, who were studying various acetogenins found in several species of plants. First they inoculated mice with lung cancer cells." - Leslie Taylor, ND, The Healing Power of Rainforest Herbs: A Guide to Understanding and Using Herbal Medicinals (Get the book.)
