Benefits for Cancer
Cancer is defined as any malignant growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled
cell division; it may spread to other parts of the body through the lymphatic
system or the blood stream.

radical damage can promote the activity of a particular cell protein called NF
kappa B. (NF-kB) NF-kB works to promote inflammation and genetic changes that
have been linked with the development of cancer. Studies at the University of
California at Berkley have found that when cells are bathed in ALA, NF-kB is inhibited
thus preventing cell mutations from replicating. Researchers believe that this
has significant implications in inhibiting the formation of cancerous tumors.
