Desi Gau Ghee – Elixir for Body, Poison for Tumor

Marut

Cancer, Ghee

So-called “good fatty acids” are essential for human health and much sought after by those who try to eat healthily. Among the Omega-3 fatty acids, DHA or docosahexaenoic acid is crucial to brain function, vision and the regulation of inflammatory phenomena.

Ghee is अमृत। Desi Cow’s ghee, procured with empathy and love, prepared by churning, is full of DHA.

Ayurveda does not believe in concept of DHA. Ayurveda is not reductionist science. Ayurveda considers human body reflection of the universe. So, the treatment and medicines are based on principle of wholeness! If DHA is good for body, take it as a whole and not as supplement!

गौ सेवा takes care of several aspects of economy. The most crucial is Health Economy.

Research info:

DHA is also associated with a reduction in the incidence of cancer. How it works is the subject of a major discovery by a multidisciplinary team of University of Louvain (UCLouvain) researchers, who have just elucidated the biochemical mechanism that allows DHA and other related fatty acids to slow the development of tumours. This is a major advance that has recently been published in the prestigious journal Cell Metabolism.

The poison acts on tumour cells via a phenomenon called ferroptosis, a type of cell death linked to the peroxidation of certain fatty acids. The greater the amount of unsaturated fatty acids in the cell, the greater the risk of their oxidation. Normally, in the acidic compartment within tumours, cells store these fatty acids in lipid droplets, a kind of bundle in which fatty acids are protected from oxidation. But in the presence of a large amount of DHA, the tumour cell is overwhelmed and cannot store the DHA, which oxidises and leads to cell death. By using a lipid metabolism inhibitor that prevents the formation of lipid droplets, researchers were able to observe that this phenomenon is further amplified, which confirms the identified mechanism and opens the door to combined treatment possibilities.
