lowering vegf helps amd? several herbs lower vegf:


summary:

. several methods of cancer treatment

are anti-angiogenic: they work by

stopping new blood vessel growth.

. one thing that cancers and amd blindness

have in common, is excess production of vegf

(vascular endothelial growth factor)

that causes the rapid growth of blood vessels

that tend to be leaky and result in edema.

. for wet amd (age-related macular degeneration

with high vegf that results in leaks and edema)

the only anti-vegf treatments have been injections

that are very expensive and can be painful.

. several herb are known to lower vegf,

and I wondered if taking them orally

could lower vegf in the eye.

a potential source for investigational new agents to treat cancer—Part 1

S.M. Sagar, MD,* D. Yance, MH,† and R.K. Wong, MD*

Tumours often secrete a relative excess of VEGF

that results in disorganized and leaky vessels

that cause local bleeding and edema.

. anti-angiogenic herbs include

Artemisia annua (Chinese wormwood), 

Viscum album (European mistletoe), 

Curcuma longa (curcumin), 

Scutellaria baicalensis (Chinese skullcap), 

resveratrol and proanthocyanidin (grape seed extract), 

Magnolia officinalis (Chinese magnolia tree), 

Camellia sinensis (green tea), 

Ginkgo biloba, 

quercetin, 

Poria cocos,

With 100 years of continuous use

and backed by 250 randomized studies,

Mistletoe is utilized by the majority 

of cancer patients in Europe.


. mistletoe (between $200 and $300 a month), 

lowers vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),

and it lowers blood sugar and insulin

[all things that need lowering to control cancer.]
