< 1 min read

Just saw this interview on the today’s show aired nationally on Inositol!!

Lung cancer is most of the times caused by smoking, but the appearance of a drug which can prevent lung cancer development, shouldn’t stop concerns about smoking, because cancer is just one of the diseases you get from this harmful habit.

If Inositol – which is already being sold in health food stores -can prevent lung cancer, then this type of cancer might lose its place as the largest cancer killer.

Lung cancer Gene Stabilizer really beneficial for smokers

This is some great research on Inositol a naturally occurring nutrient that is usually classified as a carbocyclic polyol. The most common form of inositol is sometimes referred to as myo-inositol. In the human body, inositol plays a major role in preventing the collection of fats in the liver, as well as promoting healthy hair growth. The presence of the nutrient also aids in efficient processing of nutrients into the conversion of energy, which in turn helps the body to maintain a healthy metabolism. Inositol also can be considered brain food, as the nutrient is necessary to properly nourish the brain.

A number of foods contain at least trace amounts of inositol. Cereals with a high bran content are relatively good sources of inositol. Red beans, and in particular kidney beans, are also good sources. Among fruits, oranges and cantaloupes tend to have higher amounts of inositol present, although most fruits do have at least a small amount. Many of the currently popular energy drinks, sometimes referred to as boost drinks, will note that their formula contains inositol.
