HEALTH BENFITS OF SOURSOP
The soursop is one of the most untie fruits you are bound to ever come across in your life. Think of its flavor as a cross between strawberries, pineapple and a variety of intermingled citrus fruits, which make it a unique eating experience.
✔ Soursop Can Kill Cancer
Starting out with perhaps the most prominent effect of soursop, is its ability to actively result in the death of cancer cells, with lab studies confirming this effect on breast and liver cancer cells. Though this effect is attributed to an extract of the actual fruit, its leaves have also been found to suppress cancer cells to the efficiency of about 80%. What makes it a promising alternative remedy to potent chemotherapeutic drugs is that its effects are specific to cancer cells and do not harm healthy cells. Quite a catch!
✔ Soursop Is Good For Your Eyes
The soursop fruit is loaded to the brim with anti-oxidants, which help reduce oxidative load in the body. In this case, you can thank vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc and many natural carotenoid compounds which help to preserve the health of your eyes. By delaying the rate of macular degeneration, or development of cataracts, optimal eye function can be maintained much longer.
✔ Helps Relieve Inflammation
Though soursop combats inflammation in cells by virtue of its high anti-oxidant content, this refers to more direct inflammation, such as that in arthritis. Various other parts of the soursop plant have also been used traditionally by natives of Central and South America to treat inflammation brought about by snake bites, although it must not be mistaken as an antidote.
✔ Can Help Manage Diabetes
Soursop has long been believed to help manage diabetes, but only recently did a study in Nigeria prove this to be true. It was found that rodents consuming soursop had significantly lower blood sugar levels than rodents which did not. The mechanism behind this action is likely to be inhibition of enzymes which help break down complex carbohydrates into glucose, or block its absorption. Plus, use of the leaves was found to decrease the effect of oxidative damage on the liver which was exacerbated by diabetes.
✔ Health Of The Stomach And Digestive Tract
Soursop consumption is associated with decreased stomach ulcer development, as it helps strengthen the structural integrity of the mucus linings on these organs, important as they are subject to the effect of hydrochloric acid from the stomach.
✔ Can Kill Intestinal Parasites
Drugs that kill intestinal worms are known as anti-helminthic, which is what soursop leaf extract can be called. The extract made from soursop leaves was found to be able to kill both adult worms as well as their larvae, which is something not many prescription anti-parasitic drugs do. Though it needs to be standardized into a dose that is approved for use for this purpose, so far the results via studies are promising.
✔ Can Help Relieve Pain
Soursop can not only relive inflammation, but actually decrease the pain stimuli. Individuals suffering from arthritis suffer from both inflammation and pain, which makes soursop fruit specially poised to help out. There also appears to be a dose related effect, meaning that the magnitude of pain relief (analgesia) is proportional to the amount of soursop consumed.
✔ Can Help Reduce Your Stress Load
When you are under high stress, your body produces an increased amount of adrenalin and cortisol. These hormones are essential for your overall health, but high levels don’t do favors for anyone. In fact, chronically high circulating levels of cortisol is implicated in a number of negative health effects, ranging from insomnia to anxiety and alerted sexual function. Soursop consumption can help buffer the negative effects of cortisol elevation, reduce anxiety and promote restful sleep.
✔ Can Help Relieve Respiratory Tract Ailments
When the common cold hits, it usually occurs with an associated cluster of symptoms, including many affecting the respiratory tract. Commonly, sneezing, sore throat and cough are among these symptoms, with each necessitating a separate treatment. However, soursop can help to thin mucus secretions, relieve throat irritation and even act as a mild expectorant, soothing many associated symptoms.
✔ Promotes Liver Health
The liver processes numerous waste material as well as every single thing you ingest, day after day, tirelessly. However, there are times during which things may go wrong. Such is the case that occurs during jaundice, which is a byproduct from the breakdown of old red blood cells. Normally, bilirubin is further broken down and excreted in urine and f***s, but bilirubin can also accumulate when things go wrong. It fails to get metabolized, and the first sign is jaundice.
Jaundice is highly visible by looking at the eyes which appear starkly yellow. Soursop helps to reverse jaundice, return bilirubin levels to acceptable levels and can shield the liver from jaundice caused by medication.
✔ Boosts Immunity
It is well established that soursop is loaded with anti-oxidant compounds, which by themselves offer great protection against many threats our bodies face on a daily basis. However, that does not bolster active immunity. Instead, some of the nutrients, such as Vitamin C, help to stimulate the production of T cells and lymphocytes, which function as the first line defense against infection. By improving your white blood cell count is high enough, your immune system will protect you from the majority of foreign pathogens it may come across.
