:ohhh:

Spicy foods could be the ultimate kryptonite for certain types of cancer cells, a study published Tuesday in the journal Breast Cancer: Targets and Therapy found. Researchers found that capsaicin, the molecule that makes foods like chili peppers spicy, caused the cells of a particularly aggressive type of breast cancer to die off in large numbers.

A team at Ruhr-Universitat Bochum in Germany experimented on cultivated tumor cells of triple-negative breast cancer, a type of cancer for which the only available treatment is chemotherapy. Researchers found that specific receptors, called Transient Receptor Potential Channels (TRPV1), occurred often in the cells and were activated by capsaicin.

The capsaicin caused large numbers of the cells to die. The remaining cells were no longer able to move quickly and therefore divided more slowly, slowing the growth of the cancer significantly. The catch is that consuming the molecule through food isn’t enough, it must be incorporated into a medical treatment.

“If we could switch on the TRPV1 receptor with specific drugs, this might constitute a new treatment approach for this type of cancer,” one of the lead researchers in the study, Hanns Hatt, said in a press release.

:ehh:

Although I'm always reading about the next thing and it never comes. I did read cayenne is beneficial mixed in water when dealing with asthma or other lung issues like bronchitis because of capsaicin, which I've found to help.

through what mechanism does capsaicin target and act upon "cancerous" cells? :francis:

Gonna bet OP doesn't even know what happens when a cell has cancer, or through what mechanism.

Instead, his dumb ass posts whatever headline grabs his attention.

you don't know shyt about science though.

they post these dumb ass articles every damn day. These aren't connected in any demonstrable way.

so I'll take that as a 'yes' to my question.

well, your beef seems to be moreso with the medical community than with me because several outlets are reporting these new findings that to you, are bullshyt
Chili pepper compound can stop breast cancer, study finds

word of advice: ditch this name or take a break fam, that little "hall of shame" banner is getting to your head; we're suppose to be relaxing and enjoying ourselves on here (i find learning enjoyable ), even in the midst of intense political debates if you're this stressed out, it may be time to step back for a while man..:francis:

you literally re-googled a story and found the article it sourced.

These studies are a dime a dozen and capitalize on laymen, like yourself, who know nothing about biochemistry and take every little thing to mean "cancer prevention"

you think I googled this story? like....I just sit around and look up random stories on cancer research medicine for the sheer joy of it? :jbhmm:

couldn't possibly be that I saw it on another site and said "oh shyt this is fascinating!" and shared it because I found it informative?

like i said man...take a break from this place for a while fam, it's starting to get to you. :picard:

Don't bother arguing with @ThreeLetterAgency he literally knows more about every topic than any person ever and if you didn't source your article from Twitter, it's irrelevant

And you reposted it because you don't understand why these stories are utterly useless, not informative.

You're learning what it feels like to have someone know more about something, than you do.

Raise your standard of information.

BIOLOGICALLY, theres been no definitive mechanism suggesting capsaicin has any effect on selecting, targeting or doing any sort of beneficial effect on cancer cells, treatment or other aspects of the disease process.

You know what kills cells in a petri disk? ANYTHING THAT HURTS THE fukkING CELL.

Good. fukking. Grief.
