According to Chinese doctors, a number of ingredients in cow’s milk can help fight stomach cancer. On the basis of them, scientists are planning to create an anticancer drug, with the help of which it will be possible to overcome severe ailments of the gastrointestinal tract in the future.
The discovery was preceded by a study of the properties of the product. And for this purpose, from the protein lactoferricin B present in milk, three important peptides for health have been isolated, which have antiviral, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties. One of them is lactoferricin B25. According to doctors, it is extremely important in the treatment of gastrointestinal cancer, as it interferes with the normal survival of gastric adenocarcinoma cells. Especially if you take it in the right doses at the right time.
Recall that another protein present in milk, lactoferricin4-14, affects the proliferation rate of colon cancer cells. The experts learned about this earlier. They plan to further study all the properties of milk. But even now they are already emphasizing the importance of this product for health.
