Episode notes
Beans Reduce Metastasis Enzyme Activity
- Beans contain polyphenols, fiber, and resistant starch that down-regulate MMP9 activity linked to cancer spread.
- Lowering MMP9 may slow metastasis particularly in colorectal cancer according to multiple PubMed studies.
MMP9 Drives Cancer Spread
- Metastasis relies on matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that let tumors degrade surrounding tissue to spread.
- Higher MMP9 activity correlates with increased invasion and metastasis, making it a measurable marker.
Use Beans As Part Of An Integrative Plan
- Use beans as part of an integrative cancer-supportive diet but not as a standalone cure.
- Combine dietary measures with tests, protocols, and medical guidance for prevention or slowing progression.
